December 16, 2021 | Recipe for a framing disaster: 60’ trusses just set yesterday, bracket system for the columns, 50+ MPH wind gusts overnight. How to avoid a framing disaster and keep a framed post frame building square: Install all web lateral bracing, bottom chord bracing, purlins, and temporary bracing properly. You won’t find any nails on our job sites. We use 4” structural lag screws for all important wood-to-wood connections, and 3” framing screws for all girt/purlin connections. We also use 4” structural lag screws for temporary bracing. Call us crazy. Disaster avoided.
