Abstract The configuration of roof trusses is a pivotal element in both structural engineering and architectural planning. These trusses, fundamental for providing support and stability to building roofs, undergo meticulous design processes to ensure structural integrity, safety, and aesthetic appeal. This overview outlines the essential factors involved in their design. Initiating with a thorough analysis of structural requirements, encompassing roof span, loads (such as snow, wind, and dead loads), and desired pitch, engineers employ mathematical and computational techniques like finite element analysis to determine optimal truss configurations in terms of efficiency and cost. The selection of materials—be it timber, steel, or engineered wood—significantly impacts truss design, considering factors such as strength, durability, availability, and cost-effectiveness. Equally crucial is the choice of connectors and fasteners to guarantee stability and safety. Various truss forms exist, each with distinct advantages and disadvantages, including common trusses, scissor trusses, and hip trusses, all influencing architectural style and appearance. With a rising emphasis on energy efficiency and sustainability, innovative features like attic trusses and the use of eco-friendly materials are increasingly integrated into designs to reduce energy consumption and environmental impact. This abstract underscores the intricate and multidimensional nature of roof truss design, stressing the necessity of a holistic approach that encompasses structural, aesthetic, and environmental considerations. A well-executed roof truss system not only upholds a building's structural integrity but also enhances functionality, visual appeal, and addresses contemporary sustainability challenges.
