ATTIC TRUSSES (ROOM IN ROOF TRUSSES)
ATTIC TRUSSES (ROOM IN ROOF TRUSSES)
Increasingly popular
Attic, or “room in the roof”, trusses are becoming increasingly popular. They offer increased living space without changing the footprint of the house, delivering maximum value to the builder and homeowner.
These cleverly designed trusses include a lower member which provides a floor platform. The benefit of this is to provide more flexibility in roof and lower floor layouts as, depending on span and room size, the attic trusses can span onto external load-bearing walls without additional support.
