The trusses feature a small metal plate at each connection point, enhancing strength and stability. These plates help distribute loads efficiently across the bay structure, ensuring durability and structural integrity as the construction progresses.
Continuing Vertically: Installing and Securing Trusses
January 27, 2025
Design+Build students are hard at work receiving and installing trusses on-site, continuing the structure from the vertical framework. With teamwork and skill, the students have gathered all their strength to bring the next phase of the design to life.
Truss Delivery
Design+Build students worked together to deliver and install each truss individually, carefully transporting them on-site with teamwork and care. Moving one truss at a time, they coordinated efforts to ensure safe handling and away from additional weather damage.
Truss Installment
The truss system consists of 19 trusses spanning 18 bays, carefully positioned to ensure structural integrity and precision. With teamwork and skill, the students are bringing the next phase of the build to life.
