Roof sheathing is structural, providing lateral bracing of roof framing members, and it carries both live and dead loads from above to the rafters and trusses below. Sheathing is a n engineered wood product -plywood or oriented-strand board - fastened to floor, wall and roof assemblies. More frequently, modern light-frame construction is built with roof trusses, a prefabricated, engineered wood assembly that includes diagonal top chords, a horizontal bottom chord, and vertical and/or diagonal webs or braces between the top and bottom chords. Each adjacent wood component is connected using metal toothed plates. Rafters are diagonal wood members, spaced uniformly apart, and topped with roof sheathing. A pitched roof is formed of sloping joists (rafters) or trusses attached to the top story walls. Roof trusses offer pitched, sloped or flat roof configurations, while also providing clearance for insulation, ventilation, electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning services between the chords.
