Fresh Sawn Oak

Product Overview

Hewins Oak trusses are produced to your bespoke dimensions and designs. Each truss is supplied as a kit of components ready to be assembled on site and lifted into position. Each truss design needs to be designed by a certified structural engineer to ensure that the sections of oak used are appropriately sizes for the weight the truss will carry. We can assist with contacting structural engineers and getting trusses designed and specified.

Our trusses are made with European Oak and come with mortise and tenon joints predrilled to take supplied oak dowels. They are available in a planed or sawn finish. Trusses are supplied ready to assemble and simply require slotting together and the dowels inserting on site.

We can manufacture all styles of truss including King post, Queen post, braced, interrupted tie-beam, sling, cruck and collar tie.

It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that trusses are suitable for the specific structural requirements of the project. Each type of oak truss requires structural calculations prior to manufacture, which can be sourced by the customer or arranged through Hewins.
