Abstract

The present invention relates to a truss system, comprising: at least a first chord; at least a second chord wherein the chords are arranged substantially parallel, diverging, converging, or sloped with respect to each other; a truss brace comprises a first end and second end; and at least a plate comprises a plurality of plate edges, disposed between the truss braces, either in succession or alternating, communicating with the truss braces outer or inner wall surface (WS).

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A truss system, comprising:
 at least a first chord;   at least a second chord wherein the chords are arranged substantially parallel, diverging, converging, or sloped with respect to each other; and   a truss brace comprises a first end and second end;   characterized in that   at least a plate comprises a plurality of plate edges, disposed between the truss braces, either in succession or alternating, communicating with the truss braces outer or inner wall surface;   at least one truss brace group comprises a first end and a second end, the truss brace group comprising at least one truss brace and the plate, arranged in a succession of obliquely, or in a succession of substantially perpendicular and obliquely, or in alternating of substantially perpendicular and obliquely, with respect to the chords, and coupled therebetween.   
     
     
         2 . The truss system of  claim 1 , wherein the plate comprises a plurality of similar shape plate are stacked, spaced apart, and coupled by at least a tube. 
     
     
         3 . The truss system of  claim 1 , wherein the plate comprising plate surface which can be configured to form at least one closed (continuous) or opened (discontinuous) plate surface, defining a rectilinear or curvilinear structure. 
     
     
         4 . The truss system of  claim 1 , wherein the plate can be configured to have same or different at any cross sectional profile as the truss brace cross sectional profile. 
     
     
         5 . The truss system of  claim 1 , wherein the truss brace group comprising the truss braces and reinforcement plates are integrally formed. 
     
     
         6 . The truss system of  claim 1 , wherein the truss brace group first end or second end, or first end and second end comprising reinforcement plate formed integrally. 
     
     
         7 . The truss system of  claim 1 , wherein the truss brace group further comprising a plurality of apertures. 
     
     
         8 . The truss system of  claim 1 , wherein the truss brace group, truss brace and reinforcement plates can be joined by coupling means, such as but not limited to weld, bolt, nut, rivet, locknut, hook, pin, or the combination thereof. 
     
     
         9 . The truss system of  claim 1 , wherein the plate comprises a plurality of apertures which can be aligned with chord apertures, truss brace apertures, apertures of another plate, or a combination thereof. 
     
     
         10 . The truss system of  claim 1 , wherein the plates edges communicating with respective truss braces outer or inner wall surface; comprise an edge angle (α) between 0 to 90 degrees with respect to the chord horizontal plane. 
     
     
         11 . The truss system of  claim 1 , wherein the tube enabling fastening means, such as but not limited to, rivet, bolt and nut, pin, locknut therethrough. 
     
     
         12 . The truss system of  claim 1 , wherein the plates, chords, and truss braces, or a combination thereof, are coupled by the fastening means or welding. 
     
     
         13 . The truss system of  claim 1 , wherein the chords are provided a plurality of brackets to couple with purlins. 
     
     
         14 . The truss system of  claim 1 , wherein the system is erected vertically, horizontally, or inclined with respect to ground plane. 
     
     
         15 . The truss system of  claim 1 , wherein the truss brace group is separated with other truss brace group.
