Today the trusses went up. A truss is a flat, triangular piece of roof, regularly repeated, that forms the frame of the roof. These were custom measured and built at the factory in nearby Belchertown, MA. A crane came in the morning to place them on the roof.
It turns out that trusses are floppy seemingly like spaghetti until the cross beams are secured. It’ll be great, says the Kevin. Big spaghetti, because they are “persuading” them with a large sledgehammer to get the right alignment.
