Trusses Arrive

  • 12/09/2017

Here’s the video of my brother and I hauling the roof trusses two storeys up the side of the building and onto the wallplates by use of a long rope and some brute force.

Having discovered that the trusses were a little low I subsequently added a course of engineering bricks to raise the roof height slightly. To achieve this, I used some long timber and a car jack to lift each end in turn.
