Truss Item
Excel help please!!!?
I am making a template for a job bid and I have no idea how to make a column that will total at the end? For example...there will be a list of items like, poles, lumber, metal, trusses, etc. Then when I put the cost in it should total it all. Can anyone please help me quick? Thanks!!!!
Depending on how you build the table, just highlight the column that you want to sum at the end, and hit the autosum button. It looks like a weird E.

Roof trusses vs rafters, which is more expensive and can we still have some storage use in the attic?
Don't know anything about cost of both options, but I assume trusses cost a fair bit more, but cheaper to install--so is the cost in the end almost the same? With rafters we would probably span 20 feet with a height of about 5 feet and gables on each end. From this we could probably get 6 x20 feet of fairly useful storage for big, dumb items like luggage, etc. Could we similarly expect a few feet on either side of centre from a truss system? Our designer wants to know our choice by next week, and local builders don't like to give prices without first seeing the designer's plans---so, I'm hoping some builders can provide some down-to-earth advice. By the way, this storage is not so important that we would pay double the amount, but would it even be close?
The span foot span is workable regardless of design from a builder's standpoint. It depends on the area but typically truss designed homes cost less to build or cost no more than stick built. Really, the pitch of your roof will determine the height you need for adequate headroom. Your designed could inform you of that question. Trusses CAN be manufactured and designed to accommodate your desired 6x20 attic storage space. I've personally incorporated that design over many garages. The bottom cord (joist) is 2x6 is lieu of 2x4 and the cross bracing is redesigned from angled bracing to vertical and angular bracing to create the space needed. Either way, truss or stick built joist & rafters, it depends on the roof pitch which determines the height. Example: 20 divided by 2 = 10 x 8/12 pitch = 6' 8" overall rise less top cord (or rafter) and bottom cord (joist), which translates into less than 6' of usage headroom. Good luck with the construction of your new house.
