First the crew moved equipment and prepared the site for unloading the trusses.
The truck had no difficulty getting in or out of of here. The whole job seemed to go very quickly and smoothly.
Each bundle of trusses was labelled so Jeff could tell the operator where to place them on the walls.
Our happy crew ready to start unloading the truck.
Looking north as the boom lifted each bundle of trusses.
Custom made and delivered right from the factory to our site, how convenient is that?
The gable truss is put in place first, check for level, then braced so it wouldn't move.
By three o'clock many of the trusses were in place.
On the south wall we have a five foot overhang so the windows will be shaded in the summer.
Here the guys work on the "hanger" truss. This is 3 trusses nailed together. The crew will then hang the trusses over our great room from these "hanger" trusses.
Tomorrow we start the plywood sheathing. See you later.
