Title: truss rafters
Post by: revid on September 15, 2016, 07:31:54 AM
I am looking for a link to some software or some advice on how to layout a truss rafter for my shed.Its 30' with 1' eaves and want to  built 4/12. I can figure out the top cord length but was wondering where to put the braces ? Any ideas or suggestions would be great.
