Types of Oak Truss We Make
At Oak Timber Structures, we supply different truss types. Each with distinguishing characteristics. Some of the following styles are available to customise on our online designer. But, we're always adding more types. Remember, we're on hand at any point throughout the design process to consult and advise.
Oak King Post Truss
King Post Truss
Oak king post trusses are notable as they feature a central vertical post known as a king post. For any building, whatever the size, our oak king trusses deliver wonderful aesthetics. With natural beauty and a powerful air of tradition, they'll create warmth in any room.
Made from the finest European oak and crafted with meticulous attention to detail, our king post trusses are of the highest quality. Along with our knowledge, we have the vital skills to create a long-standing king post truss. Designing a bespoke king post truss is possible with our 3D online designer.
Oak Queen Post Truss
Queen Truss
The queen post truss shares similar tie beams, rafters, and braces to a king post truss. Yet, the standout difference is there's no central post. Because of the lack of a central beam, they create an open space and can span wider lengths.
With awe-inspiring charm, a european oak queen post truss will become a key feature of any conversion. We cater queen post trusses according to structural engineering requirements and customer preferences. Designing a bespoke queen post truss is possible with our 3D online designer.
Oak Raised Tie Truss
Raised Tie Truss
While we deliver trusses for all manner of buildings, we also love creating smaller trusses. A raised tie truss is perfect for anyone wanting the elegance of an oak truss in smaller settings. With the tie beam raised, a raised tie truss offers more head space. So, if short on building height, a raised tie truss is the ideal solution.
Resembling the letter "A", a raised tie oak truss has the magnificence of a king truss but with the ability to fit into compact spaces. Designing a bespoke oak raised tie truss is possible with our 3D online designer.
Mono Truss
Mono Truss
A mono truss is effectively half an oak truss. The shape makes them perfect for extensions, lean-tos, or side buildings. Mono trusses comprise one rafter, tie beam, and an extra vertical brace that adds further support. Full of character, a european oak mono truss is a timeless classic feature. Designing a bespoke oak mono truss is possible with our 3D online designer.
Oak Cruck Truss
Cruck Truss
Oak cruck trusses offer church-like majesty. By adding curvature to the rafters, cruck trusses resemble those found in the grandest of churches. The cruck truss has had a renaissance in house renovation and new builds. They offer a visual variation to the more common straight edges of king and queen oak roof trusses. For the splendour and elegance of a cruck truss, contact our team.
Oak Arched Truss
Arched Truss
An arched oak truss is a slight variation on the king truss. The curved bottom tie beam, as opposed to a straight beam, offers a distinct visual difference. Arched oak trusses have a pronounced rustic ambience. They're a more subtle approach to creating headroom. Contact our team, who are happy to answer questions regarding arched oak trusses.
