A parallel chord vaulted truss is a type of roof truss that has sloping top chords and parallel bottom chords. This creates a vaulted interior space that is taller at the center than at the edges. Parallel chord vaulted trusses are often used in homes and commercial buildings to create a spacious and airy feel. They can also be used to add character and style to a building.
The Parallel Chord Vaulted Truss is configurable in a range of sizes with typical spans between 24’-72’ (7.3-21.9 m) and overall heights of 6’1”-44’8” (1.86-13.6 m). The truss depth of the Parallel Chord Vaulted Truss is between 24”-72” (61-183 cm) with common wood truss thicknesses of 1.5”, 3”, or 4.5” (3.8, 7.6, 11.4 cm). Trusses have a pitch ratio typically between 1:1 to 1:6.
