Description
Description

A double Fink truss is a type of roof truss that is made up of two sets of parallel chords that are connected by a series of diagonal members. The diagonal members are arranged in a triangular pattern, and the chords are sloped to form a triangular roof. Double Fink trusses are typically used for buildings with large spans, such as warehouses and factories. They are also used for some residential homes, especially those with large open floor plans.
