Here's a brief explanation of where residential roof trusses fail and why. The top chords of a truss are 2x4 or 2x6 compression members & are the ones that the roof sheathing(usually 4' x 8' panels of either OSB or plywood) is attached to. The bottom chords are tension members and are the ones to...

It was looking scary 3 weeks ago...I was still riding my motorcycle (a little chilly, but hey, why not?). Once again, Earl, the God of Winter took care of us...we now have a 50" base and counting. It's kind of all fun and games on the mountain, but as Realtors, we never stop working. I get some o...
