Installing the Mono Trusses [Flat Roof Trusses]

Written By This Old Mojo on Friday, Sep 06, 2019 | 04:00 PM

 
Today I installed the mono trusses! Mono trusses make it easier to install a 'flat' roof! These mono trusses weigh 50# each so they weren't too hard to lift in place myself -- but it wasn't exactly easy. Mono trusses are used on flat roofs, and are called mono because they pitch one way only. They result is a nearly flat roof with just enough pitch to drain water. 🍺 If you enjoyed the video, you can buy me a beer here: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=U5BDZFCHV9WLQ&source=url Here are some of the tools I use here on Planet Mojo: DeWALT 20V MAX XR Oscillating Tool Kit, 3-Speed -- https://amzn.to/3aYKIaS DEWALT 20V MAX Impact Driver -- https://amzn.to/2JzyCK2 DEWALT 20V MAX Cordless Drill -- https://amzn.to/38PmInW DEWALT ATOMIC 20V MAX Cordless Drill, 1/2-Inch, Tool Only -- https://amzn.to/3rKAwbZ DEWALT 20V MAX Circular Saw -- https://amzn.to/3p60tR7 DEWALT Rotary Hammer Drill with Shocks, D-Handle -- https://amzn.to/37u2DUJ DEWALT 20V MAX XR Jig Saw, Tool Only -- https://amzn.to/2J66QEQ DEWALT 20V MAX XR Reciprocating Saw, Compact -- DEWALT 20V MAX XR Compact Reciprocating Saw -- https://amzn.to/3nKHVFG DEWALT 20V MAX Cordless Drill / Driver Kit, Compact, 1/2-Inch -- https://amzn.to/2KBzFcK DEWALT 20V MAX XR Oscillating Multi-Tool, Variable Speed -- https://amzn.to/3nxzBt7 DEWALT DCG413B 20V MAX Brushless Cut Off Tool/Grinder -- https://amzn.to/3mC4g78 Empire Level 96-Inch Aluminum Straight Edge -- https://amzn.to/34OBvOu Empire Level 48-Inch Aluminum Straight Edge -- https://amzn.to/2JpBYPF Starrett-C33H-12-4R Hardened Combination Square -- https://amzn.to/2KL3YOu Imperial 4-in-1 Drywall Blade -- https://amzn.to/2Xlyscw Here are some more videos on the rest of the breezeway project for those who are interested: Breezeway Playlist -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=seFLn5gaBhY&list=PL_iZ8t8zAFuPKLtixu6uLRsJZA1oCwH5m Concrete Floor Pour -- https://youtu.be/8OujtoYFDzA Trenching for the Gray Water Lines -- https://youtu.be/7nhILvsZb_8 Trenching and Installing Gray Water Lines -- https://youtu.be/i_9LE-cHQ5Q Framing the Addition Day Two -- https://youtu.be/jayuuaeLnX0 Breezeway Framing Day Three -- https://youtu.be/jqCOsFYy3lA Breezeway Framing Day Four -- https://youtu.be/i7vdStRwCWY Framing Day Five ― Tipping Up the North Wall -- https://youtu.be/au_puNGg1rs Please Share, Like, Comment, and Subscribe!
