Roof Trusses
Configuring the roof of a building is a complex task. La Charpenterie has developed high-precision methods to preassemble roof structures. Our architecture technicians use the most effective calculation tools to meet all quality criteria. They develop methods to determine exact measurements so that the roof trusses fit perfectly to each type of structure. Whether for residential, commercial, institutional, or agricultural constructions, our roof trusses maintain their uniformity and precision while meeting Building Code criteria and engineering standards.
Assembled with galvanized steel plates (also called "metal connectors"), our roof trusses are made with kiln dried, NLGA-certified (National Lumber Grades Authority) wood and offer a host of advantages. They--
- Are economical
- Are fast and easy to install
- Offer excellent strength-to-weight ratio
- Can be used for wide spans
- Provide flexibility in connecting floor surfaces
- Can be used to build verandas and turrets
