New Truss Setting System

[John Bowman]

Here is an article just sent to me dealing with a new truss setting system called "The Racker Truss".

Perhaps someone will run into one shortly and will be up to speed on it.

Dubious about that one. They do a lot more talking about how great it is than why. Practically any kind of bracing will add 50% more strength to your home than no bracing. Looks like a heavy strap with holes and little mounts to nail on top of walls. Wonder how you get those mounts in the right spot without pulling out a tape?
