Product & supply information
Roof structure and package planning
A roof truss package needs to reflect the complete roof brief, including the relationship between roof planes, wall supports and ceilings. Architectural changes can affect the truss layout, so the drawings used for detailing need to describe the same design as the rest of the building.
Factory preparation allows the individual components to be produced before they arrive on site. Discuss the layouts and supporting documents included with your order, along with any additional connections or materials required for installation.
- A roof package prepared for your building layout.
- Roof geometry and ceiling requirements considered before manufacture.
- Available to enquire about alongside wall frames and floor trusses.

Project information
From roof layout to installation planning
Prefabrication moves component preparation into the factory. Its value on site depends on a coordinated layout, the correct package and a clear installation sequence.
Set out the complete roof brief
Include roof geometry, roofing material, ceiling requirements and any proposed solar or mechanical equipment in your enquiry. These details help the team identify information needed for design review.
Know what your package includes
Ask which layouts, component identification details, connections and supporting documents are included in the quotation. Confirm responsibility for any additional materials or equipment before arranging installation.
Can you review an unusual roof layout?
Send your plans for review. The team can discuss the layout and confirm what is suitable for manufacture before you proceed.
Can I order wall frames at the same time?
Yes. Include wall frames in your enquiry so the team can consider both packages together.
What is the current production lead time?
Visit our Production Lead Times page for the dated guide, then contact the team to confirm timing for your order.
