Damaged Truss Report

A Damaged Truss Report is a service that identifies structural issues in roof truss systems, recommends repairs, and documents both the problem and the remedial work. This provides your clients clarity on roof safety, repair necessity, and repair quality.

What the Service Does

• Review roof truss system data and documentation collected by your inspector to assess damage.

• Measure and document damage: scope (which members affected), location, severity.

• Provide graphics, sketches or annotated drawings to show exactly what is damaged and where.

• Recommend repair methods: what to fix, which materials to use, how to restore proper structural capacity.

What to Watch Out For / Common Truss Damage Issues (for reference)

These are issues seen commonly in truss evaluation literature (so these might show up in your evaluations):

• Sagging of bottom chord or excessive deflection.

• Cracks, splits, or rot in wood members—especially near joints or in connector/metal plate areas.

• Loose or missing connectors, damaged metal plate joints.

• Decay, insect damage, moisture damage.

• Structural changes due to overloading, improper modifications or lack of bracing.
