ABSTRACT:
A bearing construction for the end of a flat truss having top and bottom wood chord members and inclined metallic intervening tension web members terminating in apertured load transfer flanges secured to at least one side of the chord members by toothed connector plates overlying the flanges with the teeth intermeshing the apertures and embedded in the chord members. A stress transferring channel overlies the end of the top chord and the channel web has teeth embedded into the top of the chord. The legs of the channel abut the sides of the chord under the flanges and connector plates and are apertured to intermesh with connector plate teeth extending through the load transfer flanges into the sides of the chord.
