Patent abstract
A prefabricated jig or tool (10) for use in positioning and aligning roof trusses (50) during frame construction includes a lateral brace portion (12) with a pair of downwardly-depending throat members (18.20), each adapted to releasably capture a truss component (e.g. constructed from 1½ inch nominal thickness lumber). The throat members are spaced apart on the lateral brace portion a distance equal to the desired truss spacing (e.g., 24 inches on center). Nailing holes (22) are provided in the brace portion above the throat members to enable temporary nailing of the tool to the truss component(s).
