Key Benefits

Greater clear span allows total flexibility in home design that conventional framing cannot achieve.
Open-web construction allows routing of plumbing, electrical, and HVAC components without having to build for downs.
Installation is fast and precise.

3-1/2'' wide gluing and nailing surface virtually eliminates squeaks in the floor system.
Trusses are precisely engineered and manufactured to carry all applied loads.
Dimensionally consistent. Kiln-dried lumber prevents shrinkage.

Floor Truss Basics

Depending on the desired depth (height) and spacing, floor trusses may clear-span rooms of 30 feet or more.

The ability to top chord bear over a beam in mid-span allows very large basement rooms with unbroken ceilings.
