Canary Wharf is a major business district in east London, within the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. It is one of the United Kingdom's two main financial centres â along with the City of London â and contains many of Europe's tallest buildings, including the second-tallest in the UK, One Canada Square.[1][2]
Trusses and rafters are both assembled ahead of being installed onto the roof. Trusses are assembled in a factory using pre-engineered structures and joints. On the other hand, rafters are assembled at the construction site. As trusses are assembled in a factory, a lot of time can be saved.
I was wondering what some framers' preferences are for making a good rafter to ridge connection on a dimensional lumber roof frame. Specifically the use or non-use of hardware, such as skewed rafter hangers, or wood connections like pressure blocks. Any feedback is appreciated.
