Patient Details
A structural project was completed in Los Angeles to address damaged framing within an existing wood bow truss system. The scope of work required the installation of a temporary shoring system to support the roof load throughout the repair and replacement process. This involved placing ten pairs of temporary shoring columns and ten temporary 4x10 beams to support one full row of the roof truss system along an 88-foot length. Repairs were performed at 21 identified locations, consisting of 13 upper truss split framing locations and 8 lower truss repair locations. The team sistered existing framing at the upper roof truss, temporarily detached the steel bracket bolt system to replace fractured framing members with matching lumber, and reattached the steel hardware. The shoring system was then systematically disassembled and relocated to complete framing repairs across 4 rows of the roof truss system.
