(Kauppi description)
A blueprint of a Proposed Reconstruction Preliminary Designs Roof Truss Reinforcement Alteration of Shed No.11 for West Side Lumber Co. The blueprint was provided by the Timber Engineering Company of California of San Francisco. This is sheet 2 of 2 sheets. The ceiling roof structure is an arch truss. Threaded steel rods of some length are bent over queen posts then tightened via a turnbuckle to provide structural strength to the roof. At the upper left there are instructions and data pertinent to the construction of the arch truss. Based on 14 foot centers (for the x brace members) there are load stress assumptions stated along with other information. The lower drawing is for a Warren truss, but I'm not sure where it fits into the shed.
