Truss Design Drawings from different suppliers may be delivered in different formats but they all contain the same basic information as outlined in the International Building Code (section 2303.4. 1) and the International Residential Code (sections R502 .114 for floors and R802 . 10 for roofs) . Truss Design Drawings are a valuable resource for anyone building with or inspecting trusses.  \nCada truss de madera conectado con láminas de metal tiene un dibujo del diseño de trusses, el que es una representación gráfica del truss que describe el diseño y los característicos físicos del truss. Los dibujos de proveedores diferentes pueden tener formatos diferentes pero todos los dibujos contienen la misma información básica que está embozada en el Código Internacional de Construcción (sección 2303.4. 1) y el Código Internacional de Residencias (secciones R502. 114 para suelos y R802.10 para techos). Los dibujos del diseño de trusses son recursos valiosos para cualquiera persona que utilice los trusses para la construcción o que examine los trusses.  \na. gEoMETry  \n• Slope or Depth, Span & Spacing  \n• Location of Joints  \nNote: Dimension notations are in feet-inchessixteenths  \nA.
