Hi Evereyone, We are looking a a little investment property which has a small unfinished garage on it. It is just studs on the inside, and we noticed, the studs are not under the trusses! It appears to be framed 16" on center but the trusses are set @24" on center? This way some trusses rest on the double top plate in the middle of the studs?
It is framed 2X6 ,fully sheathed, with great ties to the slab, the trusses are all tied to the top plate, etc .It all pretty much looks great, it has had stucco exterior for 6 years and not to much as a single crack..
I just wanted to know if this is acceptable design? The owner has the original order from the truss company which actually indicated 24" on center over 16"!! They have since closed up however!
So , is this normal and , should I fit in 2X6's under the errant trusses?(Since the walls are still open)
Any help appreciated G
