Installation

• Position the jack truss on the inside of the bend line with the end of the jack truss flush with the bend line.
• Bend the TJC to the desired position (one bend cycle only).
• No bevel cut required.
• Attachment of TJC to the top chord requires the designer to check connection geometry for placement on both carried and carrying chord members. See Top Chord Member Sizes table for suggested chord sizes.
