We are working on a patio build right now that calls for 3 timber truss systems that span 30'. Does anyone know of anyone in the state that makes them? I have only seen SCI out of Bossier but I can't get a response from them on pricing.

Does anyone have any buying experience with them? Trying to get a ballpark estimate.

For my house I had a truss system over my garage for my bonus room. It was ordered through Stine’s and came with the engineering paperwork to support it. I don’t recall who it actually came from, but I’d imagine a local lumber yard could get a few quotes for you and delivery.

My garage is basically 25’x30’. 25’ truss length at 16” C-C spacing, it was about $5k for the system in 2018.

Moat local lumber stores should be able to custom order the engineered beams. We had several in our recent home build. They all came from Stines. They are actually manufactured in Boyce, LA by Boise Cascade.

This, and by local they mean like the Cash and Carry type not Lowe’s and Home Depot.

I am located in Alexandria as well. I didn't realize that Boise filled custom orders. I'll have to run by Stines this week to see what they can do.

I think I ordered mine through Home Building Materials and they came from Boise Cascade.

Stines might actually get them from Martin Distributors on Eddie Williams Blvd, which is wholesale... Martin might actually cut to length for Stines but I don’t actually know how all that works. My builder, Brian Malone deals with Hardy Pippen at Stines. Hardy did all the figuring and measuring... I just paid the bills
