In this video I build the trusses for the roof. I am using 8 foot 2x4's and 3/4" plywood. These trusses are for a tool shed or storage building. They are not designed to be used in a home.

I have looked through a LOT of the 'Shed Building" vids and you know something, even though this man is not a "Professional" carpenter. ..he explains it better then the ones that ARE. MOST of the ones made by 'PROs' leave out a LOT of useful information and tips..that's NOT GOOD. He would make a Great School teacher.. I think I'll SAVE this one for when I start my shed. GOOD JOB SIR.
Thank you. I do need to be clear that I am brand new to building. The shed is really doing well though!
I have looked all over for something simple with details. Before watching your video I was so confused about building a simple roof. You have made my day, By the way you explained everything perfect for my needs. Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Great job.
Awesome! You will also like the shed build series that I just finished. Check the channel and you will find an updated version of this video.
Not many men out there are self motivated like yourself sir. you seem very down to earth kind a guy and humble I solute and respect good people like you. I enjoyed your video but im sure you already have haters, I wouldnt worry about negative people out there because we need good people like you. have a blessed day sir.
just ordered the *WoodBlueprints. Com* guide for step-by-step videos and different plans to BUILD A SHED. they have some awesome plans in there
This guy is so chill. I feel like I'm watching of combination of Bob Ross and Mr. Rogers. Great project!
Hello neighbor. Let's paint a happy little tree on this corner.
Always good to see someone take the time to do it them yourselves,not something you see very much anymore
I built my house in boat shoes and my pole barn in crocs and many remodels in the same footwear. I’m surprised I am still a free man with all the safety police in the country. I even mow the lawn barefoot sometime! Your video was excellent.
Haha as long as you dont film your feet ... it never happened. :)
That works great until it doesn't. Then you walk with a limp the rest of your dumbass life.
Absolute inspiration. Thank you for taking the time to make this video, really. Clear, concise, well spoken. Keep up the great work!
Thank you. My shop has been a highlight of my channel for the past two years. So happy to have it. Thank you for watching.
I thank you for the simple way you explained how to do trusses. You know, I watched several channels and most of them were very complicated. This way is the simplest and most understandable for me to understand.
Thank you for watching! I do recommend installing rafter ties (boards that span from the bottom of the trusses on the top plate to help prevent wall bulge). You can watch that step later in the series.
A quick course in geometry will open your eyes, my friend. You,re just reinventing the wheel here.
The degree for a 4/12 pitch is on your speed square. Simply pivot the square to a 4/12 pitch and read what it says on the degrees scale.
Finally someone with an informative video, nice trusses - one for the playlist 👍
Thank you. I might not be the most professional but the trusses have worked well for a year now.
@@LandtoHouse And along came the dumbarse nay-sayers, Like Sunday drivers!
Right off the bat you make sense with building the trusses before the walls are in the way.
Thank you. I have found that to be the best. Especially when you have a shop large enough to build on the floor.
This is exactly how my brother and I made our own trusses when we were carpenters back in the 70’s. But dude, buy yourself some Redwing boots.
I enjoy your videos.
I am not a builder, but I was told by an engineer that nails are better for structures as they bend instead of breaking under stress. The screws have good pull-out resistance but poor strength against shear forces.
+Twentyone twos thank you for watching. I am also not a builder. I heard that somewhere as well. I don't really anticipate this Workshop seeing a lot of Shear forces. I did some research and most sources said that it is okay to build with either screws or nails for these small buildings. Screws sure are a lot easier to work with. Since I don't have a nail gun
+Grumpy Old Man I am actually just done with the framing. I used the same screws. They do have a little give once they are past the threads.but I can see your point. The biggest snow I have seem in 19 years was last year at 16". It lasted over a week.
Grumpy Old Man vinyl coated nails?
+KennyE1957 yes they sure are.
I have had Architects and Engineers that draw things that can't be built and those desk jockey's have a point on top of their head . Yes nails bend and wood dries out and nails back out over time as well . I build residential and commercial and all commercial buildings are all metal stud framing . All screws no nails and the higher you get the harder the wind blows constantly . Hands on experience beats a classroom any day .
I accidentally found your video... You speak clearly, in a calm and controlled way... Easy to follow instructions... You are an inspiration...
I'm about to start building a backyard office and your videos will help me understand the steps I need to take.
Thanks.
I'm happy that you found the videos. I'm definitely no professional but the videos might help with getting started.
Thank you for sharing your valuable video with us.
Greetings from Scandinavian.
Dang dog is straight up gangsta!
Best way to do that plywood thing is regular wood glue in a pan and small roller. Then bang them in place with an air nailer with ring shank nails. Fast & strong.
Great video.
Haha gangsta dog.
I have enjoyed these trusses. Have worked well. A nailer would be a lot faster!
Was a gift and they loved shed
Starting from Scratch. great video Human being!!
Thank you. It was a great learning process for this build. Turned out really nice in my opinion.
thanks
Pedantic niggling-- "Slope" and "pitch" are commonly conflated but mean different things. Slope is rise over run, such as the 4/12 used here. Pitch is rise over span, span being twice the run, or the full width of the wall.
Good video, simple, clear and straightforward. I would add a couple of points. In the past I have use the exact procceger, plywood layout big and gusset, glue and screw. What's different is I glue and screw the top side of the truss, then flip it over and glue and screw the others side. Also, if you think about the load path, (it's straight down) without a bird's beak or a horizontal joist roof loads will spread the rafters. What I do is cut a wedge and glue and screw it to the underside of the rafter. Then the spreading load is transferred to the wedge. Just a little different technique and I most heartily agree with all of the footwear admonisments.
That is a fun idea! I am thinking of making a small atv shed in the future and I will give the wedge idea a look. Thank you for your input!
Nice 👍👍👍
I call it the college of RUclips.
Might not always be the best way to do things but there are times youtube helps. Thanks for watching.
I left the overhang uncut. This saved me from cutting one end of all the rafters and shortening all my decking plywood. Plus, I feel the water will drip off the “drip edge” with less chance of hitting the soffit. So it’s quicker, easier and better weather resistance, IMO. Plus the appearance is fine for a shed.
Seems legit. Did it match up alright at the end where the soffits meets with the eve of the end of the building?
Land to House
Yes, perfect without any additional cuts at 8 foot lengths of rafters and decking. My shed is 12x16.
@@Mote78 nice! I am no pro and I am all about not doing more than you have too.
Great video! You are capable of doing anything you set out to do. I’m an 83 year old retired Journeyman Carpenter. Would have teamed up with you any time‼️. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
your encouragement goes to show how great an individual you are..blessed are those who got to work with you, and learn from you....cheers, happy holidays
Thank you! With some training and guidance I think I would be alright at this type work.
Positivity and encouragement go a long way for sure!
You had me on the cost. I will be saving some funds and getting started in spring. This will be my summer project. Hopefully I'll have a roof done by fall.
Thanks for watching! The one thing that I say is dont skip the step on adding ridge ties. These are basically the bottom of the trusses.
I am really enjoying the workshop build
+Scott Jacob thank you. Me too. So far everything is going very smoothly
Like your steel toe sandals just teasing you but good dictatorial video. I myself don't know much in framing buildings. Thanks. My man
Thank you for watching. I also don't know much about framing buildings. Haha. But this one has worked out well so far
I think i would change my last name, Maybe to was but not anymore,,,
I was looking for plans to build scissor trusses. How awesome, I am like you, I enjoyed your original video on how to build scissor trusses. I would have done it the same way, and I will use that video to make mine. I will use plywood, glue and nails as others suggested for the mending plates. Thanks very much. I will check your other videos out.
These trusses have worked really well! In January I have a complete shed build series coming out that uses this style again.
ahhhh the old plywood trick..thats what i do..cheaper and just as good as metal gussetts...and formal training means nothing...one can leran stuff on ones own time or like me..i travelled with my father on many jobs learning
Yes using the plywood was the way to go. I like that it is just as strong but Much cheaper than using metal plates.
Formal training means nothing until you split that big toe open wearing flip flops.
I was trying modern building with ancient footwear. ... Turns out not a good idea. I now wear better footwear.
Plywood gussets produce a stronger joint than steel mending plates, unless you have a large commercial press like the truss companies. They aren't meant to be hammered on. The bottom cord is under tension so those gussets should be in line with the cord, not angled. As with most backyard projects, the loads are so minor that almost any technique seems to suffice. Almost ....
Do not put braces of plywood on the outsides of the 2 end trusses, they will have to be removed for siding of the building. Break down and buy a few metal plates and nail them down. Thickness of the plate will not matter plywood thickness will. Stress of removing the plywood will weaken the truss joint.
you're a good man... everyone loves you..........
Someone else who hates the math involved in this. Thanks bunches brother. I'll be making a guide piece too
Yes indeed! Please check my shed build series from Jan. It is much better.
Well the safety sallies would have a field day.....Eye and hearing protection for the mitre saw, but look at his feet !!! !flip flops. All the same a really good down to earth video with good information and unlike all, yes all the other videos he has give actual dimensions of the timber..thanks
After I saw the open toe sandals I stopped watching.
Rank amateur or pure crap for brains - it's your choice.
Yes not the smartest idea. Sandals worked well for millions of ancient Egyptians but not so well in modern Construction.
@@executivesteps Jesus was a carpenter he wore sandals.
Truth.... :)
we apericiated your advice.I use 2x 6 not 2x 4 but lowes + home depot all use. for the trusses.
Great detailed video. Thank you. (BTW those plywood plates are called gussets.)
You remembered your goggles and earplugs, but forgot your steel toes. Those are very important as well. One day you'll see :)
I personally feel composite toes are far more applicable to a amatuer home carpenter [DIy] guy or gal. Jush humble OSHA approved opinion.
@@master6676 Composite, sure, but will they fit over his sandals?
Well explained, will use this method on my shed build
Thank you. Check my shed build from last year. Much clearer videos.
Will don
Great video. Thank you !
Very nicely done.. Down to earth video that is enjoyable and you don't need a PHD in Engineering to understand
Thank you. I just watched a few videos on making these and went for it. So far 2 years later it is still doing great!
------ if he had a Phd in engineering, the trusses would have been vastly over-complicated, cost 15 times as much to build, and probably wouldn't have fit --- plus there would have been 15 pages of drawings, 8 pages of specs, 30 pages of building instructions, and a 29 page safety manual
Well said. Those of us that don't have engineering degrees just do it.
@@LandtoHouse ---- do you know the difference in engineer boots and cowboy boots ? -- the cowboy boots have the BS on the outside
Haha thats fun.
In all seriousness I know a lot of do-it-yourselfers and I know a handful of engineers that really are good at their jobs. It takes both to build a lot of projects.
Great Job !!! I appreciate your honesty up front. Also your approach is clear!! (easy to follow), Thanks for your time .I am going to build one behind your workshops ,send pics when finished..ps. if you ever come to The Grand Canyon Campgrounds (West rim) .you & your guest May Stay for FREE. look forward to the rest of your Workshop..Sincerly Kevin C. Operations Manager/Clergy.
Thank you. I feel that it is good to get the disclaimer out there first thing. I would be happy to see the finished product when you get it built. Not too hard to do. Well worth having two people to get them installed though. That part was a pain alone. Thank you for the offer! I am not sure that we will be that way for some time although I would like to visit! Having a 4 month old slows a lot of plans.
Those will be a little flimsy, just looking at the size/span. Also the collar tie is very short vs the span as well. It'll probably work for years, but I would keep an eye on them. You may have to strengthen them.down the line.
Love the Crazy Dog at 13:55
Ha ha yes those dogs are funny.
Thank you for your "crazy dog" comment...I had to go back and find it!
Excellent instruction video....with good audio..very important!! will continue to follow further......
They always say that audio is more important than video. I am trying to have both with quality. Thank you for watching.
Thank you for a great video once again!!! Love your dog too!!!
Thank you for watching! That silly dog is a mess.
Great job thank you for the knowledge
Excellent video
These pieces of plywood, are grossly undersized, and the weakest part of these trusses. and the bottom cord might be a little too high. The lower the bottom cord, the stronger, pick you strength. In an area like east Texas, the wind would tear these apart. In a area of heavy snow load, there could be spreading.
Good Job, Well made and very good information
Thank you. So far I'm quite pleased with the results
I have to add a new roof to a mobile home and this method will be perfect !
nice jig... impressive job.
Never assume the 2x4s are consistent in length. 3/8 -5/8 are left long to account for multiple cuts, angles, and saw kerfs. The first cut should be measured 2, cut once. After all your lengths are established, then use your jig, or just get a cheap skill saw from a local home center. They start around $40-60
Good point! I had to go back and cut a few ends to match them up. I now have a little more experience with the skill saw.
Thank you! Very helpful.
Father in law built his trusses the same way. We used 2x6s not 2x4s! 15 years later and, The roof had started to collapse! The plates we made for the peak of the trusses began to pull away from the trusses. The roofing company who we had come out to fix it said it was from hot and cold temps causing the wood to shrink and expand... We are in ohio so that does make sense... He decided to rip the entire building down ... there is now a pool in that spot where the shop once was!! Guess everybody wins since we no longer used the shop anyway!
I have heard different sides to that type story. But I am thinking 15 years is not terrible. We have some cold here. I think it got down to 10 degrees this winter. In summer I have an attic fan that pulls a lot of the heat out. Might get to 110 up there.
Try proofreading your posts
nice job so far
+Mike Duffy thank you. It's really coming along.
As Red Green used to say - Safety Forced! Eyes, hearing, closed shoes and maybe some gloves. Maybe I have been working construction too many years, but just using a circular saw and my framing square would be faster than the miter saw, even with the stops. These are ok for a small storage shed (kinda), but a bird’s mouth would be a great addition, I am sure since he is RUclips taught he has seen this. I am curious about blocking, lateral bracing. Yes, even on a shed I am concerned about racking. The style of construction of the rafters is almost identical to the ones which come with the low end shed kits, do will probably work fine.
There are so many way to build something. RUclips taught is not always a good thing haha. In later videos I use better shoes. I do always use hearing and eye protection. I will be building a lawnmower shed soon. I am not sure that I will be doing birds mouth though. I really like using the two strong tie brackets. No racking after 2 years. The shed has done very well.
Learning.
Thanks for the video, I admire your enthusiasm and initiative. I am curious about the engineering for the trusses. How much weight and snow load will they withstand. Since it is a small structure, you may be safe, but with a larger structure and span, these things become more critical. The positioning of the collar tie also makes a difference. Great effort anyway and thanks again for the video.
Thank you for watching. This area does not have much snow most of the time. I think the most I have ever seen here is 16". That lasted around 5 days before it was all gone. Most of the time we get 6" or less. The ridge ties do help a lot for the load.
Nice safety shoes!
Yes very old school. Like biblical. Ha ha.
I learned a lot from your video. I’m in the process of building a 14x 20 building and I’m not sure what size 2x4s I need for the trusses? I only want a small amount of hang over on each side, about 6 inches. I’m having trouble knowing how long my metal roofing sheets need to be? I was planing on using 8 foot long 2x4 s? Will that be long enough with 8 foot 2x4s? Like I said my building will be 14 feet wide. Thank you for any help you can give. Have a great day.
Anthony
2:12 - 4/12 pitch is 18.5 degrees. You can find framing and span table books or look it up online.
For those of you wondering how to figure out the roof pitch angle and you don't know the trig formula, simply google 'roof pitch angle' and you will find a chart that gives you every angle up to 12/12 . 4/12 is 18.43 deg.
@ jerry pankratz. All the pitch degree angles are available on the speed square.
Thanks Jim, I have three speed squares none of which have the angles on them, I'll have to look for one that has that info. I'm old school, two foot square for laying out and marking angles.The trig formula for those who are interested is rise/run=2nd tan.
Swanson Speed Square for the degrees scale.
@@gardening-in-the-woods I am also old school and prefer a framing square - it's more accurate across a large area - however I also have several speed squares ( including a Swanson and another brand ) - none of them have a given degree cut for the various pitch cuts - what they have is a degree scale along the long side with which you can approximate the degrees close enough for any normal purpose - what it doesn't have is a scale telling you EXACTLY what the pitch angle is ( ie: you can easily ascertain that a 4/12 is close to 18 1/2 deg but determining it is exactly 18.43 degrees would be labor intensive )
Great video. You did a real nice job explaining. Thank you.
This was my second attempt at making trusses. Much improved over the first try.
Very informative but I think I’ll forgo the plywood pieces and use truss plates they don’t cost much.
Truss plates are good but often not as wide as the plywood gussets.
I don't understand why you would build a truss such that the gusset plates on the collar have a twisting force on them.
It should be 18-1/2 degrees for a 4/12 pitched roof
That's good to know! I am learning a lot as I go.
Is anybody going to tell him that those are not trust their rafters😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I use to work in sandals as well until I lost a toe.
Those little blocks you are cutting are called gussets.
Yes thank you. Check out the newer build on the channel. Much better than this old one.
Beutiful video, broter,
Thank you!
I did learn a few good things from the video. Thank you for making it. BUT, please please please for the love of your feet... PLEASE wear "not sandals"
Where can we get replacement "co screws" for keter apex shed? (ours were lost during recent move.)
Seth, love the videos, keep them coming.
Really glad to see you using a jig and gussets to make the trusses this time, and including collar ties in the design to keep them from scissoring open. I might have suggested some scrap plywood under the far ends to keep the top chords (rafter boards) level/flat in the jig for screwing. I couldn't tell from the video, did you put 6 screws in the small gussets that connected the collar ties (horizontal board) to the top cords (rafter boards) to keep the gussets from twisting?
All those triangle wedges cut off the ends of the collar ties are perfect wedges to attach to the underside at the point the truss arms rest on the walls. (somewhere below I saw another comment like that). This gives you flat surface to flat surface connection to toe nail through (or screw) into the top plate and takes the strain of lateral & spreading forces much better.
Another hint: the end trusses get gussets on only the 'inside', your exterior sheeting (plywood/OSB) nailed into the truss takes care of the outside.
Hola,para esa medida de cercha,cuantos grados de corte lleva donde se juntan en el centro??,saludos de Jose desde spain
Thanks nice and simple...
What are those?! Back at it again with the brown sandles
Haha yes I used sandies for a few videos in this series.
Hola,no me aclaro como se hacen esas cerchas ya que no entiendo el idioma,hay alguna forma de sacar el sistema para construirlas??,saludos de Jose desde spain
Will those support me? I have truss issues.
Lol solid dad joke.
Truss issues, lol
Haha it's a good one.
Rules
1. never wear open toe shoes.
2. never use the kitchen broom outside, but when you’re finished using it, make sure it’s right back where it was.
I should say. Never wear open toe shoes while working with any tools.
Good rules! Especially the house broom.
3. Replace with new one before wife gets home
Yes I think that is what happened.
Good to see you are wearing your Jesus boots. LOL good vid.
Haha yes the building shoe of choice for almost 4000 years. Thanks for watching.
good job !!
Thank you. These turned out well!
I know this is an older video, but how is your roof holding up? I have read the top gussets need to be 24 inches wide. I am reinforcing the rafters on a 60 year garage. Thinking about adding top gussets. It already has ceiling ties.
This roof has done very well. I don't know much about fixing up an old garage. There was a 16" snow this past year and there were no issues with the roof.
Proper PPE: glasses, earmuffs and fisherman's sandals 🤔
Nice job Seth! I need to watch the entire series tonight. Just stumbled across this awesome vid. How wide is your shed? I'm about to start on a 16x24. Was wondering if the 2x4 for the trusses are strong enough. Your shed seems to be more than a 12ft span. Also, I'd like to use the roof for additional storage. Any insight on how you calculated or found out what load your trusses can bear? Thanks!
Thank you for watching. My shed is 14x20. I am not sure about the load calculation. I just know that it has done remarkably well over the past couple years. We had a 16" snow this past year and it was not an issue. For the additional 2 feet in your shed I would go with 2x6's. Also that would allow you the chance to hand more stuff from the roof. Do watch the video showing the rafter ties as well. These go from the top plate to top plate to make sure that the building does not flex outward.
minute 14:02 trusses are straight and happy but the wall behind looks he's jealous
Many walls on the things that I build have issues with being straight and happy.
In my opinion there is one mistake here. If you load this truss it will be destroyed easly. It would be better orient playwood peaces horizontaly from outside, not verticaly like you did. Make it like extensions of horizontal joist.
So far the heaviest load we've had on this roof is 16 inches of snow. Or two adults around 210 pounds. No movement. That should be all we have around here.
only thing i couldn't understand was how you knew where to clamp the "jig" for the 4/12 angle cut. because of the angle of the camera i couldn't tell how you set up the jig angle.
So for the jig I actually made the first truss and then put that down to make the jig. That way I knew that all the others would be the same as the first.
@@LandtoHouse oooh I think you misunderstood my question. I was talking about the stop(?) you made in the miter saw and was wondering how you got that angle....
Oh okay. To be honest I probably just used the speed square to make the angle and then matched up as best I could with the saw.
no birdmouth cuts ?
Thanks you good.
Thank you for watching.
Land to House. There is no one to help you. I would like to help you
Sometimes my dad helps. I am at the point now that the hard work is done on the outside. Now I have to get the inside started. Thank you for the concern.
Some areas require metal plates for trusses. Sadly, that is code in my area.
It's just a shed
Yes indeed! Only a shed.
Just so every one knows, home made trusses will NOT pass building code. Unless an engineer signs off on them
Yes very true. These are just for a tool storage shed.
I know that you built this over a year ago but what length size of 2 x 4 did you use for your trusses. I used an 8 ft for my 4/12 pitch and ended up with an overhang of 1 ft 7 in. I ended up cutting down to 1 ft but I would like to avoid that with the others. My shed is 12 ft wide and about 18 ft long.
My shed is 14' and I used 8' boards. I ended up with somewhere around 6 to 7" of overhang. (It has been a while since I built this step.) You might want to lay the finished truss out and use that as a template for the others.
called a plumb cut
why no one mentioned that only nails is allowed to use in truss connections.. even if truss used for shed construction.. roof can fall down on your head
We had a 16" snow this past winter and there was no issue at all with the roof. I can see that nails would be helpful in a roof truss.
thank you for the feedback. the main issue with screws - they are hardened and tend to break easily without noticing you when you (force) bent them,
nail is made from soft metal and has way more resistance for bending breakage
wood material is moving during season time due to-high/low temperatures and humidity changes...
it create forces inside wood that break screw
people find broken screws in many constructions especialy after winter
sometimes better combine crews+nails, atleast
@@woxiduswoxidus1167 I'm currently building a playhouse for my kids. This time I use a combination of screws and nails. Should do quite well.
Those outer gusset plates are poorly placed. 1. They should be a little larger and 2. They should be placed 90 degrees to the direction you have them.
So I'm about to build a storage building and asked a more experienced guy about building my trusses the same way you built these. He said that these trusses, and I'm paraphrasing here, will not be good structurally because the way they're built pushes out on the walls. I'm not sure that it matters for me because we don't have snow or anything here, just lots of rain. So have you had any issues with these trusses built this way? Also, is there any reason to actually cut the pieces to nail the trusses together instead of buying nail plates and using them?
I am no pro and would trust someone who is over my word. It is true that this style truss can push out on the walls under a load. That is why I installed rafter ties in a later video. They hold the walls at the right distance. I have had 400 pounds worth of people on the roof and no issues. We dont get much snow here either. Check the other video here: ruclips.net/video/SBzEAkDFoYI/видео.html
Ok thanks, I'm only going to have the 3 middle trusses built like this out of the 11 so I really don't believe this would be an issue for my circumstance. I'll check out the other video too!
+Tray Brown that sounds good. Oh yes and I've heard that using construction adhesive and screws with plywood can be stronger than nail plates.
Ok yeah I was guessing that's why people did that method most of what I have seen! Thanks again!
Where Do You Buy Your Safety Shoes ?
Those are a special brand modeled after carpenters of the ancient times. .... yes I know they do not comply with modern industry standards haha. I now wear actual shoes while working.
Lol...
Brilliant well explained and well done larrysullivan in London
lol
Thank you for watching!
would u please tell me the breed name of your dog? ive been searching for a dog just like urs, oh yea good video
He is a Maltes/ Shitsu. (Might be misspelling that) amazing dog. If he were better trained he would be perfect.
как держит нагрузку?
How wide is your spann with the trusses?
I have a 14x20 shop. The trusses have worked very well. I do recommend installing the rafter ties though. That is in a later step.
@@LandtoHouse I am building a 20 x 20 shop and am looking if I want to use trusses or rafters?
@Jack Shipe I ended up using trusses.I did not see an advantage with rafters unless you are going to have a steep pitch and a usable space in the ceiling area .As a matter of fact I am working on the shop right now!
@Jack Shipe Went with a 4/12 pitch . Normal trussed.
My neighbors shed collapsed and he said he watched this to build it. Don't do this! Running the numbers through the truss calculator... These wont support much weight. For the span you are doing it is not that bad, but, if you would be building a wider building, this would for sure fail. Over lapping the straining beam on the top chords would be quicker and stronger then using the plywood and the adhesive is a waste of time and money. At this span you should use 2x6 unless you use a standard truss where the strain beam is the bottom chord and you use webs.
Oh gosh! Did he install the rafter ties? That keeps the walls from moving out. This winter we had 16" of snow with no issues at all.
Your ridge gussets have the grain going the wrong way! The grain should be horizontal...these gussets DO NOT have any strength to them for what they are supposed to provide for support! This is reality...
