Wood Truss lateral bracing - Structural engineering …

    https://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=197672
    Bracing that takes lateral building loads and transfers them to other parts of the structure, perhaps through the trusses, is the responsibility of the engineer of record. This would include top chord truss bracing (roof sheathing) and bottom chord bracing (ceiling sheathing perhaps), and gable end-wall bracing, etc.

    1. Installing interior ganged wood trusses at a height other than truss top chord top at eave height on bearing column outside edge. 2. Using bottom chord continuous lateral restraint other than what is specified on building plans. 3. Failing to confirm distance from end truss outside to opposite end truss outside

Truss Bracing

    http://hillscreektruss.com/index.php/truss-bracing
    Temporary bracing should be 2x4 dimension lumber of larger and should be 8 feet minimum in length. Continuous lateral bracing maintains spacing, but without cross bracing, permits trusses to move laterally. To prevent dominoing, diagonal bracing should be installed in the plane of the webs as the trusses are installed.

Handling, Erection and Bracing of Wood Trusses - Hi …

    This lateral and diagonal bracing is required to maintain the proper truss spacing and to transfer force due to lateral forces into the side walls, shear walls or other resisting structural elements.

Continuous Lateral Bracing - Structural building components

    https://sbcindustry.com/content/1/continuous-lateral-bracing
    Continuous lateral bracing (or restraint) is VERY important. There are two separate types of bracing to be concerned about: permanent bracing listed on the truss design drawing for specific web members and permanent bracing for the roof or floor system. Certain truss members require bracing in order to carry the full design load.

Guidance on Diagonal Bracing on Long Span Trusses

    https://hansenpolebuildings.com/2022/05/guidance-on-diagonal-bracing-on-long-span-trusses/
    Bracing is typically provided by adding diagonal bracing within the same plane of the lateral restraint or by anchoring the lateral restraint to a lateral force resisting member such as a shear wall.”. Lateral restraint is vitally important, as it is the primary mechanism used to keep the trusses in plane during installation as they ...

Roof Truss Permanent Bracing

    https://www.structural101.com/Roof-Truss-Permanent-Bracing
    Sloping top chord of roof trusses must resist compression force due to gravity (downward) load on the roof, such as snow load. Roof sheathing (plywood, OSB) provides effective lateral bracing when sheathing is nailed directly to top chords. This condition generally applies when trusses are spaced at 2 feet.

Handling Erection and Bracing of Wood Trusses - Tricon Truss

    Align each truss and place it permanently in position before it is connected to the bracing system. Once there is a load, even from the weight of the truss itself, large lateral forces are developed by attempts to realign the trusses. This may break the bracing system. 0/100 Maxi um 1/2" D(in) 12" 24" 36" 48" 60" 72".

BCSI Guidelines for Continuous Lateral Restraint

    https://sbcmag.info/article/2013/bcsi-guidelines-continuous-lateral-restraint-diagonal-bracing-metal-plate-connected-woo
    Wood trusses have slender members loaded with high compression forces; therefore, temporary and permanent truss member continuous lateral restraint (CLR) and diagonal bracing is critical to preventing premature failure by buckling of the top/bottom chords and/or web members. Truss member CLR and diagonal bracing is typically installed according to the recommendations …
