GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION PLAYS A VERYIMPORTANT PART IN TRUSS DESIGN STYLE ANDYOU WILL DEFINITELY WANT TO KNOW WHY!

DEPENDING ON THE GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION YOUARE BUILDING IN, THE TRUSSES YOU NEED
FOR YOUR NEW STRUCTURE
![Page 4: Why Geographic Location is So Important for Truss Design Types](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032620/55cda78dbb61eb17148b4605/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
WILL HAVE TO ACCOUNT FOR THE DIFFERENT AMOUNTOF WIND AND SNOW THE AREA TYPICALLY
GETS EACH YEAR.

THERE ARE MANY DIFFERENT CODES FORVARIOUS CLIMATES ACROSS THE COUNTRY
![Page 6: Why Geographic Location is So Important for Truss Design Types](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032620/55cda78dbb61eb17148b4605/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
THAT NEEDS TO BE CONSIDERED AND METWHEN BUILDING A STRUCTURE WITH TRUSSES.
![Page 7: Why Geographic Location is So Important for Truss Design Types](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032620/55cda78dbb61eb17148b4605/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
GOOD TRUSS BUILDERS ANALYZE THEWEATHER PATTERNS AND CLIMATE HISTORY
IN THE AREA THEY ARE BUILDING IN
![Page 8: Why Geographic Location is So Important for Truss Design Types](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032620/55cda78dbb61eb17148b4605/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
SO AS TO GET AN ACCURATE IDEAAS TO WHAT WIND AND SNOW LOADS ARE LIKE.

AREAS LIKE OKLAHOMA AND TEXASDO NOT RECEIVE VERY MUCH SNOW,SO THE LIVE LOAD ON THE TRUSSES
![Page 10: Why Geographic Location is So Important for Truss Design Types](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032620/55cda78dbb61eb17148b4605/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
WILL BE VERY DIFFERENT FROM OTHER PLACES,SUCH AS MINNESOTA, THAT TEND TO RECEIVE
A LOT OF SNOW IN THE WINTER.

THE ROOFS ON STRUCTURES REMAIN STABLE WITHSNOW LOADS FOR A NUMBER OF REASONS,
![Page 12: Why Geographic Location is So Important for Truss Design Types](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032620/55cda78dbb61eb17148b4605/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
INCLUDING A SMALL TRIBUTARY AREA,PROPER INSULATION, A BRIEF DURATION,
AND A LARGE MOMENT OF INERTIA.

AREAS THAT GET A LOT OF WIND,LIKE KANSAS AND OKLAHOMA,
REQUIRE TRUSSES TO BE DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY
![Page 14: Why Geographic Location is So Important for Truss Design Types](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032620/55cda78dbb61eb17148b4605/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
SO THAT THE STRUCTURE CAN WITHSTANDSTRONG WINDS ON A REGULAR BASIS.
