What Is A Trussed Rafter?

Trussed rafters are individually designed timber components, engineered to provide a structural frame for a wide range of roof structures.

Prefabricated timber trusses are used in over 90% of all modern housing and in an increasingly large proportion of commercial and industrial buildings, particularly those with a varied and interesting roof design.

As roof structures are becoming increasingly complex, housebuilders are looking to major truss manufacturers, such as Scotts, to offer expertise and cost effective solutions.

Our timber trussed rafter roofs can offer you:

• A flexible, fully engineered timber solution
• Speed of construction and reduced site labour costs, by utilising pre-fabricated components
• Space saving on-site, with no need for timber storage
• The capability to accept a wide range of roof and ceiling coverings
• Design flexibility to accommodate the wide range of services required in modern buildings
