Contemporary housing construction is increasingly turning to solutions that are not only durable and aesthetically pleasing, but also optimised in terms of cost and lead time. One such solution is prefabricated roof trusses providing a modern alternative to traditional trusses. Trusses completely change the approach to roof design and construction compared to traditional technologies.
W Wascovilla We believe that a good roof starts with a solid structure, and modern trusses are a prime example of this.
What exactly are roof trusses?
The trusses are prefabricated roof construction elementswhich take over the function of classic trusses. Instead of building the roof "on site" from many individual components, the roof trusses are prefabricated in the production hall. Precise dimensions and geometric layouts are maintained, tailored to the specific requirements of the project. house design.
Such a structure consists of bottom and top strips, connected by posts and cross-braces. All these elements are connected by barbed plates, which are special steel connectors pressed into the timber under high pressure. It is these that provide the exceptional strength and rigidity of the entire truss system.
Why C24 wood?
W Wascovilla, trusses we produce, using Class C24 wood. It is characterised by high load-bearing capacity, crack resistance and dimensional stability. The timber undergoes chamber drying and strength grading, so that it not only meets the requirements of building standards, but also ensures the longevity of the structure.
Wood grade C24 refers to its technical performance, regardless of its species.
Safety - proven technology and predictable performance
Roof trusses are computer-designed and manufactured under controlled industrial conditions. This eliminates errors typical of assembly from individual components directly on site and guarantees repeatability of technical parameters. Each set of trusses is produced on the basis of an individual design, taking into account, among other things, the snow and wind zones, the roof pitch or planned additional loads (e.g. PV panels).
Choosing Wascovilla, you can count on a design that has been from the outset planned with your family's safety in mind - without compromise.
Economy - less waste, faster installation, lower costs
The prefabricated trusses are delivered to the construction site as ready-to-assemble components. This means shorter lead times and significant reduction of construction waste. Thanks to precision manufacturing, there is no need to cut individual parts of the structure on site, which translates into less material consumption and less risk of assembly errors.
For the investor, this represents real savings - not only at the construction stage, but also in terms of long-term use. Prefabricated roof trusses is characterised by excellent load-bearing capacity and stability, allowing for better layout of the loft space and avoiding costly reinforcements and supports.
Aesthetics - more space, more design possibilities
Modern trusses allow large span roofs to be realised without internal columns or masonry. This makes the usable attic can be fully utilised as a living or recreational space. At Wascovilla, we believe that form should follow function, while roof construction should not restrict your vision for your home.
What's more, prefabrication opens the door to a wide variety of roof forms. From classic pitched roofs to more complex solutions with bay windows or large eaves. And all this without the risk of the structure deforming over time.
Trusses roof and sustainable construction
Prefabricated timber structures are also a response to ecological needs. Wood, as a renewable raw material, has a decidedly lower carbon footprint than steel or concrete. The prefabrication process reduces the transport of materials and cuts down on the time spent by site crews.
All this makes trusses become part of modern low-carbon construction.
Bet on experience and precision
Trusses are the solution that brings the essentials together in single-family housing: durability, economy i aesthetics. Choosing Wascovilla, you can count not only on a high-quality product, but also on the experience of a team that has already manufactured and installed thousands of roofs in Poland and abroad.
The roof is not only the crowning glory of a house, but also a guarantee of safety for its occupants. As manufacturer of roof trusses, we are able to combine technology with attention to detail - from design to installation.
