TrimJoist® is a prefabricated metal plate connected trimmable end wood floor truss designed and manufactured in accordance with ANSI/TPI 1- 2014: National Design Standard for Metal Plate Connected Wood Truss Construction. Proprietary metal connector plates are used to transmit forces from one wood member to one or more other wood members, where wood members are connected using integral teeth formed from the metal plate and subsequently embedded into each wood member at a truss joint.
