ABSTRACT:
A relatively flat sheet metal structural web member for interconnecting a pair of generally parallel spaced-apart chord members to form a floor truss or the like. The web member is generally V-shaped, comprising first and second legs integrally joined at one of their respective ends, and a plurality of teeth struck from opposite ends of the legs for being driven into the chord members. The teeth struck from of each leg are oriented to present their relatively wide surfaces generally broadside within the range of 45.degree.-90.degree. with respect to the central longitudinal plane of the leg for maximizing the resistance of the teeth to movement through the wood chord members so as to increase the load-holding capacity of the web member.
