Wood Trusses are delivered to the job site as an engineered roof system which eliminates on site trimming and cutting, thereby saving labor, time and material. Efficient designs are employed in the truss system which allow for clear span conditions using only the exterior walls for bearing in most cases. Using trusses takes the worry out of internal planning. No fixed positions of internal walls because trusses don't require any internal support. This allows freedom of planning within the building and helps eliminate the costly and architecturally inhibiting interior bearing conditions. Selkirk Truss Systems ensures quality and efficiency. Trusses offer more design flexibility than conventional framing, no wasted materials on the job site, and can be easily manhandled and usually erected in a fraction of the time. This insures a cost efficient, structurally superior roof package.
