DWB Attic Trusses (Room In The Roof) Room in the roof trusses, or attic trusses, are an ideal way to increase the habitable area of a house, or improve storage area.

Attic trusses are manufactured in a similar way to standard trusses but due to the increased loadings, and the lack of full triangulation, normally have larger timber sections, which in turn increase the price. Even with this price increase taken into account, room in the roof trusses remain one of the most economic ways to add space to a building. When considering using attic trusses, thought should be put into the positions of dormer and rooflights, along with staircases and any other openings. The details required for pricing an enquiry regarding attic trusses include span of truss, pitch, tile type and room width and height. Please note the room width required can dramatically alter the price.

Open web joists can also be incorporated to further increase the benefits of attic trusses – by utilising the open web joist large services such as soil pipes and air conditioning systems are easily routed through the floor.
