Trussed Rafters
Trussed rafters are today's preferred choice of roof construction for domestic buildings and are becoming increasingly favored for commercial and industrial developments such as offices, retail, hotels, and leisure centers. Attic rooms in residential developments are becoming increasingly popular to maximize plots, with some developers choosing to incorporate attic roof trusses as a precaution for future changes of use.
This popularity is in part thanks to trussed rafters' cost-effectiveness and compatibility with a variety of construction methods including timber frame, masonry, and steel frame. The use of timber in construction is an ideal environmental solution as the only truly renewable building resource. All our timber is PEFC sourced.
Our roof trusses are CAD-designed using range-topping software. Strict design and fabrication standards ensure that our trusses rafters are consistently highly engineered to BS 5268: Part 3 and BS EN 14250.
