NFC Member Shares Proper Bracing in Action

These 80-foot span trusses frame the roof of a building in the Oxford Square housing community, a project in the Hanover, Maryland, part of the Baltimore metro area.

Bruce Jones, owner of Bruce L. Jones Contractor, Inc. and active member of the National Framers Council, submitted this photo in response to a call for more evidence of safe, proper bracing techniques during truss installation.

Thanks to Bruce, and hats off to Chesapeake Contracting Group, the builder on this job!
