Truss
rod and truss rod tighteners are
used when braces and trusses are installed
on chain link fences, primarily commercial
jobs. Bracing and trussing a chain link fence
serves the purpose of keeping posts plumb
, i.e. end, corner, and gate posts under the
duress of tightly stretched chain link. Typically
braces and trusses are installed just after
posts have set up in concrete and before the
chain link is stretched taut. See image and
text below for more complete information on
installing braces and trusses on chain link
fence. |
