Hinged truss plates
Are these rotatable plates intended to be used to extend a truss top chord?
This type of plate is used at the ridge on the same house where it makes approx a 40 deg angle. I found some other truss issues so calling for an engineer is a given, just wanting some more info/link on this application.

Re: Hinged truss plates
Hi Bruce,
That is a very common fitting on manufactured housing units. Regards Gerry "To realize our true destiny, we must be guided not by a myth from our past, but by a vision of our future."
