ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a truss splice shoe hat can be used to assemble members of lumber roof trusses of residential buildings. The truss splice shoe is a U-shaped plate made of steel, with unitary prongs formed in the sidewalls used as fastening means to truss members. Each unitary prong has an elongated, curved portion tapering to a penetrating end. After arranging the truss members in the desired configuration, only a single truss splice shoe needs to be installed to form a strong joint with ease and with minimum of labor. The truss splice shoe can also be used to repair a distressed truss member or to provide a joint in a truss member.
