Upload your plans and pick your scope. FrameScope™ lays out roof and floor trusses (wall panels coming in 2027), sizes the truss-to-truss hangers, and builds a material takeoff with board footage. Take it to any truss plant or lumber dealer for budget pricing.
Four modules. One job summary.
Pick the modules you need on intake. Truss-to-truss hangers are included in truss design packages; uplift tie-downs are an add-on.
