Glulam Hammer Truss (continued)

Earlier, I blogged about the hammer trusses we were assembling for a church project. The truss pictured previously was one of the smaller ones on the project. Below is a photo of the peak connection at four intersecting trusses. That’s me standing next to the steel connection, giving perspective on its size.

This connection is for the larger trusses on the project, like the one being rotated in our finishing department in the photo below. When assembled in the field. four trusses identical to the one below will connect to the steel shown above.
