A Warren flat truss is a type of truss that is made up of a series of equilateral triangles. The triangles are formed by diagonal webs that connect the top and bottom chords of the truss. There are no vertical members in a Warren flat truss. This makes the truss very lightweight and efficient. Warren flat trusses are often used in bridges and other structures that need to support a lot of weight but don't need to be very tall.
The Flat Warren Truss is configurable in a range of sizes with typical spans between 24’-72’ (7.3-21.9 m) and overall heights of 2’-6’ (.61-1.83 m). The thickness of wood trusses is commonly 1.5”, 3”, or 4.5” (3.8, 7.6, 11.4 cm).
