TECO Preporee Gomprchen3ivc Trurs Cutting Schedule

Timber Engineering Company has announced the availability of a comprehensive cutting and assembly schedule for its plate type truss system. Available without charge to fabricators of roof trusses using TECO plates, the schedule presents a complete breakdown on angle cuts and member lengths for W-pattern trusses.

In the Timber Engineering Company schedule there is an individual dimension sheet for each of six slopes ranging from 2\5 in72 to ? in 12. Spans covered run from L6' to 32' and for convenience are broken down into f increments. For a given slope and span the TECO schedule provides a total of 24 cutting dimensions and fabricating checks. Without the schedule a fabri- cator of roof trusses would be required to spend hours either making detailed computations or laying out a full scale pattern truss in order to determine member lengths and angle cuts. The detail of the TECO schedule is suggested by the fact that close to 10,000 computations were involved in its preparation.

Also contained in TECO's schedule is a procedure sheet explaining how angle cuts and member lengths should be laid out using the pre-determined dimensions. For further guidance a detailed instruction sheet covering the construction of an assembly jig is included.

Information on how to obtain a copy of TECO's schedule can be obtained by writing Timber Engineering Company, 16lg Massachusetts Avenue, N.W., Washington 6, D.C.
