Steel Roof Truss To Column Connection

Steel roof pitched truss connection over a steel column.

Steel roof truss to column connection.

The truss is divided into three bays of 10 m width by the columns. Connecting wood roof trusses to concrete masonry walls by using direct bearing connections. Seshu adluri connections many types based on function beam to beam connections beam to column connections column to column connections column base plates pocket beam gusset plate connections truss type frame type bracings splices cover plates.

As an example consider a transfer truss spanning 30 m supporting two columns at third points each carrying 10 mn from floors above.

2 types of trusses. Options to set the roof girders on wood post or concrete wall also available. A sl series truss is a single slope truss that includes steel girders and steel columns with clear span widths from 10 through 80 with available eave heights of 8 through 20. In light roof trusses entirely bolted connections are less favoured than welded connections due to the requirement for gusset plates and their increased fabrication costs.

In what follows connections between open section members will be considered. In the case of large roof trusses which cannot be transported whole welded sub assemblies are delivered to site and are either bolted or welded together on site. Benchmark the shear capacity of roof to wall connections load direction parallel to wall assembled with hand driven common nails pneumatic nails and a combination of pneumatic nails and light gage steel roof clips using full scale roof assembly tests and individual connection tests.
