Truss Installation – Louisiana

Our project in Alexandria, La. is finally complete and installed and we is finally complete and installed and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results. These 40′-0″ long modified king post trusses were fabricated with Vacuum Kiln Dried #1 & Better FOHC Douglas Fir. They have a smooth finish and joinery is a mix of True Mortise and Peg connections and some concealed engineered steel knife plates. The trusses are above a Covered Entry and Outdoor Living Area connecting an existing residence with a new addition. (more…)

These are some follow-up pictures of our screened porch installation on a new house near Fredericksburg, Texas. We supplied Kiln Dried Clear Mixed Grain Alaska Yellow Cedar for the screen frame assemblies which occur with a steel frame. These images show the results immediately after treatment with weathering salts…this gives a uniform patina to our very durable Alaska Yellow Cedar which is going to be left unfinished. (more…)
