Building Plywood Trusses
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
To start with, planning is the most important aspect of building any project. Either draw it out full scale or work with a draftsman on an AutoCad drawing, like I did for this particular project. (John Ricardo of Northford, CT) As you can see, each truss is made up of 6 pieces, glued, stapled, and screwed together. The trusses are supported by 2 triple laminated beams directly above the fiberglass columns.
This picture here shows the end product 
of what took about a weeks worth of time to fabricate.
Each truss is a double thick 3/4″ CDX plywood construction. They are stapled & glued together with a 2-part water proof type adhesive.
