Rest of the morning and afternoon was spent putting up the end trusses. Because they are numdered [marked] on the truss plans we hand to put the right trusses in the right place and also the right distance apart, then tack them off.
Due to a couple of these truss rafters being used, new ones had to be cut using the drop saw
To nail the jack trusses together we used 100mm steel nails [2 top and bottom]
Cam explained if you were putting the jack trusses up by yourself you would nail a block in the bottom of the truss you are going to join the truss too.
