Indeed, I have rough electrical coming soon before I segue into the rough trades. Stay tuned and once again -- congratulations!

I can’t thank you enough. As a new permit tech I see truss calcs everyday. After a thousand more views of your video maybe they’ll make sense.

Hi Pamela. Your comment made me laugh, "After a thousand more views... maybe they'll make sense"😂 - yes, truss calculations can seem quite complex, especially since there are various designs - and once you somewhat become familiar with one -- then comes another design and stuff gets confusing once again. In the past I've taken staff to field trips of truss fabrication facilities (so they see how it's made), then later on to a site so they can see them delivered and installed. We would do this on a submittal that the staff member processed since the familiarity with the project was already there. That said, I suppose that is one way that can help further understand these truss calculation and trusses - if time allows. Otherwise, feel free to view the video as many times as you desire 😊. However, please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. Take care, Pamela - and I am grateful you found the channel. Thank you for checking out the content. - Jose M

Excellent video. I have been looking for a quality engineered roof trusses video that covered bracing. Thank you sir.

Hello, Great presentation. I appreciate you taking the time to do it. Going through my newly built home, it seems to me there should be more roof truss bracing. There is currently only a couple CLB areas and the gable bracing is at a steep angle 25-35 degrees. Also large areas of the sheathing with no H clips or blocking underneath. We get lots of snow and wind here in Central Oregon and I’m concerned after seeing some of the things the inspectors overlooked. Any input is appreciated.

Greetings and thank you for the question. If you are able to, consider discussing this with the contractor/developer of record and the design professional of record; then the local building department. The reason is, they may have an explanation justifying the areas you describe. You may also consider viewing the blueprints to your home, through the Public Records laws; this will give you an idea of the home’s design - and it may answer your questions. The building department should have a copy of the plans, if it is part of their records retention policy. Best case scenario, there may be a valid reason why the home was built as you describe. Worst case scenario, items were missed (which happens, we are human); and in this case, the parties can decide on who will be responsible for any issues encountered. If your home was recently built, it may still be under warranty, but check with the seller, realtor, and contractor. I hope this helps. Please let me know how things go for you. Best of luck, Jose M

Good job, however, DF SS means Douglas Fir Select Structural, which is a grade above #1.

@CBO.online Год назад

You are absolutely correct! Not sure why I had "Standard Stud" grade on mind. Thank you for the comment and correction; in reference to timestamp: 6:15 and any references to Standard Stud. Thank you, Patrick!

Is this only for high wind/seismic areas? I've never seen this here in Tennessee. Thanks!

@CBO.online 2 месяца назад

Hello! It's understandable to notice variations between states. In California, roof sheathing inspections are governed by stringent standards outlined in the California Residential Code (CRC) model code - International Residential Code (IRC). These standards aim to ensure structural integrity and resilience against seismic and high-wind events by meticulously examining elements like hurricane structural clips, roof trusses, drag structural connectors, edge nailing, shear transfers, and more. While these requirements may seem strict compared to (perhaps) other states, it is important to remember that building codes and inspection practices can vary significantly from state to state. Factors like climate, local building traditions, and historical considerations often influence the stringency of these standards. In Tennessee, inspection practices may prioritize different aspects of construction based on the region's unique environmental conditions and building code requirements. California is just built differently, I reckon. Thanks for checking it out✌😎, @tinoslaponi8514

Did you mean the planning & inspections or permit department

@CBO.online Год назад

I am not sure if I understand the question. I do not believe I mention either on the video.

@@CBO.online Did you mean the planning & inspections or permit department when explaining the truss submittal flowchart?

@CBO.online Год назад

@@domingo2977 Hi Domingo. In the video, I mention the Building Department, since that is almost universally known as the department that is responsible for reviewing and inspecting truss calculations. But in your case (planning & inspections or permit department), It would be whichever department reviews the truss calculations. I cannot speak for either of the departments you mention, especially considering that building departments (i.e., building permits/plan review/building inspections operations) are often called different names (e.g., development services, permits and inspections, planning and building, etc.), depending on the organization structure -- so it is best to contact the departments you mention to ask about the truss calculations, submittal process and requirements. The video merely outlines a typical process flow -- when -- truss calculations are deferred. The local AHJ determines if trusses can be deferred, or not - including requirements. I hope this answers the question. Feel free to reach out if you need further clarification. Be well. - Jose M

@CBO.online 2 года назад

Hi Nick. I am very sorry to hear of your experience and findings. Buying a new house should be a worry-free and joyful experience; and it is a significant investment. Your question is very much a legal question and in short, you should get in touch with a “construction defect attorney” in your area and discuss your matter with the firm, as soon as you are able to. They should be able to advise you on the necessary steps to take. Also, the home should still be under warranty, so look through the documents you were provided with by the builder/seller’s agent. Please keep us posted if you can; and I hope you can get your concerns resolved in a timely fashion. Be well and best of luck to you. Jose M
