ABSTRACT:
A top chord profile of a roof truss chord has inwardly depending ends at the mouth area of the chord and trapezoidal flanges resulting in stronger chords. The chord profiles can be connected to each other at mitered ends using a connecting plate at a ridge in a manner that allows absorption of the compressive forces at the ridge.
