hyCHORD
hyCHORD is ideal for truss chords in high load applications where strength and predictable deflection performance are paramount. Incorporated into major nail plate manufacturers truss design software, hyCHORD is easy to design in trusses.

hyCHORD is ideal for truss chords in high load applications where strength and predictable deflection performance are paramount. With hyCHORD, designers can confidently exploit the excellent strength properties for minimum sections, and then utilize the predicted deflection performance to apply just the right amount of camber to ensure flat ceilings and a no ‘dips or bumps’ roof line.
