Open Web Roof Truss Span Table

You can use sbca s span charts to roughly determine truss sizes available.

Open web roof truss span table.

Redbuilt open web trusses offer a variety of solutions for a broad range of challenges. Of bearings and is based on uniformly loaded joists. Alpine truss designs are engineered to meet specific span configuration and load conditions. Maximum deflection is limited by l 360 or l 480 under live load.

Included are a series of representative roof truss span tables that will give you an idea of the truss spans available for a particular load condition load duration lumber type and truss configuration. The shapes and spans shown here represent only a fraction of the millions of designs produced by alpine engineers. Whether your project is for retail or office space a school multi family apartments condos assisted living facilities hotels and motels warehouses you name it an open floor plan is often a primary requirement. The maximum span is measured o c.

Floor truss span chart each individual floor truss design is unique based on multiple variables.

Spacing of trusses are center to center in inches. The minimum bearing length is 1 spans values in bold indicate that web stiffeners are required at the osb end panel. Keep in mind that these tables are for estimations only. The spans are based on simple span joists.
