If you want to learn and understand truss construction may I suggest that you join the Structural Building Components Association.

Structural Building Components Association

If you are doing new home construction inspections and do not know this information you ARE not doing a good inspection.

You will find no better information on trusses and their construction, handling and installation.

Belonging is very inexpensive and will pay you back many times over.

SBCA is a great organization, although I let my membership expire a few years ago after I bought everything I wanted for my library. It's been long enough that I probably should check them out again. Thanks for the reminder.
