ABSTRACT:
A ridge rafter connector formed from a strip of sheet metal which encapsulates the sides of the rafter and is normally connected to the side and top of the ridge beam. The top flange of the connector is configured so that it provides a locator function for the rafter to be connected on the opposite side of the ridge beam.
The connecting flange attached to the holding beam may be planar or bent to different angles for use at various locations and for different purposes.
