ABSTRACT:
A connector for joining a wood member such as a hip truss and a second wood member such as a jack truss to a third wood member such as a girder truss. The connector is formed with a seat for receiving the bottom edges of the hip and jack truss, side members and tab members which respectively attach to the sides of the hip and jack trusses, and back members which attach to the carrier girder truss. The connector is constructed from a single sheet metal blank member and requires no welding. The hip and jack trusses intersect at an angle less than 90.degree. and attach to the bottom chord of the carrier girder truss.
