This Fink Double Truss Revit family provides a structural framing component for roof assemblies, featuring a standard W-web configuration. The Fink double truss is a classic structural configuration designed for efficient load distribution in pitched roof systems. This Revit family represents a standard W-web arrangement, consisting of a top chord, a bottom chord, and a series of internal vertical and diagonal web members. The geometry is clean and linear, reflecting typical timber construction practices. The proportions are set for standard residential or light industrial roof spans, providing a clear, schematic representation of the framing members. This component is essential for defining the primary structural skeleton of a roof system within a building information model.
The download is a 195 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.
In Revit, this family is intended to be loaded into a project as a structural framing component. Users can place the truss along reference planes or structural grids to define roof pitch and span. The family is designed to host structural framing elements, allowing for the integration of purlins or roof decking. It is best practice to align the truss insertion points with the primary structural bearing walls or columns to ensure accurate load path analysis and coordination throughout the project design stages.

This truss is primarily used in residential and light industrial building projects, specifically during the schematic design and construction documentation phases. It is suitable for creating detailed roof framing plans, sections, and 3D structural models. Architects and structural engineers use this component to communicate roof geometry and framing intent to contractors and fabricators. It pairs effectively with standard timber framing libraries and roof assembly systems, making it a reliable choice for projects requiring clear, efficient structural documentation and accurate material quantification.
