Discrete Bracing Analysis for Light-Frame Wood-Truss Compression Webs
Article 2000 EN
Light-frame wood roof trusses often require lateral bracing to reduce the effective length of compression web members for buckling purposes. Three simple analysis methods were compared in a physical test program to determine if any could adequately predict required brace strength and stiffness. A test program measured brace force and lateral deflection at midheight of 774 nominal 2 × 4 (38 × 89 mm…
