Bring On The Trusses....Timber Trusses That IS.


Modified King Post


Queen Post Truss Design



Double Hammer Beam


Scissor Truss (my favorite)

Heavy Timber Trusses

Although I love the look of our Hammer Beam Truss, if choosing for myself, I would choose our Modified King Post Truss. I like the simplicity of the design and the extra height you gain from raising that bottom chord.
