Abstract
A span-adjustable open-web support braket is intended for use in a truss having an upper chord member with a slot in an end thereof, a lower chord member, and a plurality of spaced web members interconnecting the chord members. The bracket includes a length-adjustment mechanism which is attached adjacent the end of the upper chord for adjusting in the length of the upper chord. A web-member length adjustment mechanism is attached to a web member adjacent the chord-length-adjustment-mechanism. An interlock is disposed between the mechanisms for coordinating chord length and web-member length adjustments.
