Truss roof

Using a CRANE saves time and money to build a roof. An upright and plumb 4x2 is fixed to the wall where the first truss is going. 1)Mark out the plates. 2)drop the trusses on the marks. 3)tack it at the plate. 4) brace first four trusses diagonally apex to joist and laterally between the joists (both sides and centre) and laterally near the ridge. Continue lateral bracing throughout and repeat diagonal over four trusses as above.
