Sealed Truss Placement Diagrams - IRC

Research Report No.: 
1511-07
Issue Date: 
January 18, 2016
Update Date: 
January 18, 2016

If a TPD is provided, it is recommended that the Building Designer review and approve the TPD to ensure that the intended load paths have not been altered. If a Truss Design Engineer were to seal a TPD, it has been suggested that they could inappropriately be held responsible for ensuring the proper flow of loads through the truss to the bearing and support structure below the truss and into the foundation.
