Hip Roof Girder Truss

Sub girders are the partial trusses that butt into the doubled truss at the end of the main run.

Hip roof girder truss.

The jack truss runs right into the hip truss. Hip truss this forms the hip line of the roof. Though not much different from the half truss the hip truss comes with an elongated top chord which finishes as the hip top. This extends over the truncated girder truss and finishes as the top of the hip.

It is similar to a half truss but has an extended top chord. The girder truss on each end of the main roof must support the weight of the hip roof element on each side. Hip truss is responsible for forming the hip line on the roof. Hip trusses building a sub girder hip.

At the peak common trusses are used to complete the run. Wood is a common construction material for girder systems. Connection of jack creeper and hip trusses at a hip end roof for design wind speed n1 n2 n3 or c1 shall be in accordance with the details shown. There will be step down trusses from the girder truss to the peak.

This system consists of a girder truss corner girder corner jacks and end jacks. These details are suitable for a maximum truncated girder station of 3600mm. The girder truss can be built by joining multiple single support elements. The fixing requirements for hip ends in this section are based on the design criteria that are governed by dead loads.
