Novice question about the placement of the last/first truss
Sketching a holiday home and glancing at both Skidsta and Värsås. Both have houses with inner dimensions of 9600mm in length.
With trusses at a normal spacing (cc 1200mm), this must mean that the first and last trusses stand "inside the house"?
Am I making myself understood? What I mean is that I thought the outermost trusses were placed as far out as possible on the gable walls. I am happy for every cm of inner dimension...

But how do they do it then?
Even Hudikhus Agö 40-65 has an outer length of about 9.98 and inner 9.6.
It must be difficult if you're aiming for 1200 cc? Do all manufacturers use tighter roof trusses on their holiday homes?
Or what have I missed...

I don't think they need to be "as far out as possible."
The ceiling can also be supported with the help of a beam all the way out just behind the panel, on top of the gable's vertical beams.
Then I think some "save" on a couple of rafters by letting the roof rest on the gable peaks instead.
In short, I suspect there are many "ideas" and techniques in this.
