Step 3 : Put up the front (1st) truss
•
Use
of
a
crane
or
forklift
is
recommended,
otherwise
a
team
can
use
ropes
to
lift
the
trusses,
but
you
have
to
make
sure
it
is
safe,
and
have
enough
manpower.
We
recommend
3
to
5
people
to
pull
the
truss
up
from
different
directions.
When
the
truss
is
up,
tie
the
ropes
to
the
heavy
objects
to
make
sure
the
truss
will
stay
upright
and
use
bolt
(#18)
to
connect
the
truss
to
the
baseplate
on
both
sides
(Picture
6).

•
Refer
to
step
3
to
put
up
the
rest
trusses,
connect
all
purlins
(#5)
with
bolt
(#17)
and
secure
all
bolts
firmly
on
each
span
before
going
to
next
truss
(Picture
