ABSTRACT:
A load bearing truss includes first and second generally parallel chord members, first and second post members coupled between the first and second chord members and a plurality of V-shaped metal webs interconnecting the first and second chord members. Respective portions of the first and second chord members extend beyond the first and second post members. A first connector member interconnects the portions of the first and second chord members extending beyond the first post member to define a first end section and a second connector member interconnects the portions of the first and second chord members extending beyond the second post member to define a second end section. The truss is lengthwise adjustable by trimming a selected one or both of the first and second end sections.
