Timber Trusses

Timber Trusses is a structural engineering construct consisting of triangulated assemblies of timber members that act as a unified load-bearing system, distinguished from other structural forms by its explicit use of wood elements arranged in a geometrically stable framework to span large distances while minimizing material usage and maximizing strength-to-weight efficiency.
