Solutions — Technology, Roof and Floor Trusses

The Production Line

Six Stages, One Standard

A truss is only as good as the line that builds it.

Engineer — Alpine, an ITW company

Every truss starts as an Alpine engineered design, reviewed against your plans and Florida's wind-load requirements before it reaches the saw. Code-compliant, sized to your spans and loads, laid out to cut material without cutting strength. You approve the layout before anything is cut.

Pack Feeder — Vekta

Banded lumber packs are loaded whole. The feeder breaks the pack down and presents boards to the saw one at a time, so the saw is never waiting and nobody is lifting material onto the infeed by hand.

Cut — Vekta Razer

The saw measures each board, optimises the cut list to reduce waste, and cuts every member — hips, valleys, bevels — to spec. Parts arrive that actually fit.

Direct Delivery System

Cut members are not carried, sorted or stacked by hand. They move from the saw to the assembly tables in build order, so the crew at the table has the right parts for the right truss without hunting for them.

Press — Randek AutoEyeTruss

Connector plates are where a truss succeeds or fails. Vision-guided pressing finds each joint and seats every plate in the right spot with the right force — first truss to last.

StakPro — Vekta

Finished trusses come off the press and are stacked in the order they will be set, so the bundle that comes off the truck is the bundle the crew works through.

Roof Trusses

Built For Real Florida Rooflines

Complex pitches, hips and valleys, long spans and wind uplift — the geometry that makes stick-framing slow is exactly what engineered roof trusses handle.

Any roofline, engineered — cathedral, hip, valley, scissor, mono, gable.
Built for Florida wind — engineered for uplift, sealed for your county.
Long spans, fewer walls — clear spans open up the plan below.
Made to your plans — from your architectural set, not a catalog.

Floor Trusses

Everything Runs Through The Floor, Not Under It

Open webs put the plumbing, HVAC and electrical inside the floor depth — nothing drilled, nothing notched, no soffit dropped to hide a duct. And the truss clear-spans the room, so there is no bearing wall through the middle of it.

Clear spans past 30 feet — depending on depth. Fewer bearing walls, beams, columns and footings underneath.
3½″ of nailing surface — flat chords, against the 1½″ edge of a joist. Sheathing lands faster and holds better.
Chases built in at layout — a duct run engineered into the truss instead of cut into it on site.
