Ridgeons Timber Engineering has supplied long span room-in-the-roof trusses for the construction of a 10,000ft2 seven-bed house in Essex.
The company supplied 61 attic trusses for the house in Billericay being built by Jarvis Developments.
The trusses were fabricated with a front to back span of 13.6m, creating an 8m-wide open space within the roof space, providing two large bedrooms and bathrooms, plus a lobby area.
Ridgeons used CAD software to design and manufacture all timbers and girder trusses needed to trim around dormer windows and the staircase from the floor below.
The house layout also required the fabrication of 30 flat tops plus mono-pitch trusses to form a roof at lower level to cover a swimming pool and guest suite.
