Garage Roof Truss Construction Video

Bob and general contractor Ted Riley watch the framing crew construct the garage roof using trusses. Custom-ordered for size from Canada, the trusses will create enough additional space to give the homeowner a bonus room in the center. The truss system makes it possible to span a greater distance without additional structural support members breaking up the open space in the garage area below.
