Brian Hill Covers Roof Trusses
The East Bay Claims Association would like to thank June luncheon guest speaker, Bryan Hill, PE, of EFI Global, for his very informative and impassioned presentation on roof trusses: “When NOT to Trust Your Truss”.
Mr. Hill utilized a well-put-together PowerPoint presentation to illustrate proper design specs for various roof truss systems.He explained that any damage to a truss system, by California law, really must be inspected and evaluated by an engineer. “You’re almost stuck with punting to a professional to assess damage,” Hill said.
Included in his presentation Hill covered changes to the California Building Code. New truss load requirements offer specific load level re-enforcement depending on a variety of uses. He ran through the gamut.
Numerous people commented after the meeting on what an informative presentation it was. “I never thought I could learn so much useful information about roof trusses,” said one attendee.
