Its implied by the attic access provided by the builder, but that doesn't mean its true. The chords tie the joist to the rafters in a typically angular fashion. These are mutually supportive of both the joist and the rafter. Trusses are de... |

] [ 153967 ] [ alt.building.construction ] [ view full article ] "steveki" - Re: Coat outdoor particle board? - If you so decide to re-do the door. You should use double sided MDO (medium density overlay) plywood. It is smooth and handles the weather well. You will find this at good lumber yards. Be sure you get the double sided, they make single sided which is not applicable for a door. "m Ransley" |

If you're a half decent carpenter and you throw enough 2x4's at it, you'll probably end up with something stronger than you started with.
