Best Answer

Carpentry is based mostly on geometry, however there are also engineering factors involved. An engineer is assigned to a building project to list deflections, loads, tensile and shear strenghts. An engineering packet is sent with truss profiles for proper applications. It is the carpenters responsibility to decipher blueprints, engineering specifications and building codes for a project to pass rigorous inspection processes.

Your truss profiles will dictate uplift and download applications. Sometimes special fasteners are required per the engineers specs.
