Setting and Bracing Large Attic Trusses 

I'm a retired master carpenter and have some comments. The way you spaced and temp braced your trusses and braced the gables was thorough and well done. Kuddos. I would have done some things to spend less money and saved a lot of time myself but, I got tons of experience. When you showed what you did to span where you had no sheathing structure I was actually impressed. You did it right, although there are many ways to skin a cat. Stairs and stairwells are tricky and you went with one technique that I can see will work fine for you. For this video you get a pat on the back. If you are going to lay out the stairs yourself reply to this comment and I will send you some links to address the layout, principals, how to force the labor and how to do the math. Looks to me that you know how to ask for sage advice, understand, read and take directions. That's important. Stairs are hard.

Very well done Steve! Thanks for sharing! 😁👍

Nice

getting ready to do this in two weeks. gonna follow what you did. Did you install the collar tie bracing when you set the trusses?

Not very many attic trusses video out there, thank you! What is the pitch of your roof?

How long was the crane onsite? Average time to place each truss? Thanks for sharing

Are Attic trusses designed to expand and contract or can you connect an attic truss to a load and non-load bearing wall

Nice video! For your garage door headers, what size beam did you need? Did it require engineering or how did you determine the size? Also did you end up adding hangers to the 2x8s you install between the girder trusses? Thanks!

great video thank you, do you recall the cost per attic truss?, im looking at almost the same dimensions as you,!
