roof trusses with raised wall plate

There must be a wedge, otherwise the pressure in the high beam will be too high. A fork anchor is a good fitting for attaching rafters. If you are going to attach the rafters before you have built the attic floor, you can first place them with the ridge downwards and then swing them vertically.

There must be a wedge, otherwise there will be too much pressure in the collar beam. A fork anchor is a good fastening for securing rafters. If you need to attach the rafters before you have built the attic floor, you can lay them with the ridge down first and then swing them vertically.

Exactly! nice.

A wedge that you attach with flat iron to the rafter and angle iron to the wall plate? That should hold nicely.

There must be a wedge, otherwise there will be too much pressure on the top chord. A fork anchor is a good fitting for fastening rafters. If you are going to attach the rafters before building the ceiling beams, you can lay them down with the ridge down first and then swing them vertically.

Or maybe angle brackets aren't needed? like this i.e.

Most people would probably use long screws to attach the wedge, but hole plates also work well. Fork anchors are best as they secure against lifting forces.
