How do you build roof trust?
A roof truss must be engineered to perform under specific load requirements. Normally, building codes require a structural engineer's stamp of approval on truss design. Trusses are usually built on a flat surface using various grades of wood, with plywood or metal gussets joining the various pieces of the truss together. Multiple identical trusses are built with the use of a jig.
Why do chefs truss poultry?
chefs truss poultry to ensure even cooking time. If the bird is (excuse the pun) spread eagle, the wings will be over cooked and dried out before the breasts are done.. By trussing the bird the surface area of the bird that is exposed to the heat is reduced and will cook slower and more even.

How do you cut an 8 inch bottom cord on a truss so you can put in 4 foot stairs when trusses are 2 feet on center?
Don't try it without having an architect engineer it for you first. Trusses are an engineered product. If the integrity of the truss is compromised you might have some serious problems.

What size lumber would be recommended for the bottom chord on a truss to span a 30 foot clear span pole barn with a osb board and asphalt shingle roofing?
Trusses are engineered components of a building, based on live loads, pitch, span, spacing, other loads that may be placed within the trusses, like attic storage, etc. If you're building to code and with a permit and will be inspected, you will need to present the engineering sheet that comes with a truss order. If you are building them yourself,(which is not legal in most jurisdictions anymore), you should at least work from a set of pre-engineered truss plans. The Extension Service, serving most counties in America, used to offer a book with an assortment of truss plans. I don't know if it is still available. You will find, however, that to build your own trusses you will invest more in nails and gusset material and lumber than it would cost to have them built by a truss plant. As to the size of the bottom cord on a 30' span, they can be sized from 2 X 4 up to 2 X 12, or even greater if they are timber trusses or will be used to support loads such as an overhead trolly. But each truss itself is a set of components all working together to achieve the desired strength, with the bottom cord being just one of those components. And the spacing and bracing of trusses to each other is of equal importance to achieve adequate strength in the building.
