Ultimately, truss analysis software should be viewed as a tool available for developing proper member sizing and axial loads, which can be used for detailing joinery and specifying fasteners. Like all tools, operator knowledge, experience, and attention to detail are paramount for accurate and meaningful structural analysis with computer software.

Painted Bow Truss; Bow truss are usually slightly more expensive than parallel chord trusses. Girder types (Beam Spans) with an aesthetic covering of wood like the Excel "Macho Combo" above can add 25% or more over the truss type. AASHTO (or DOT) codes instead of AISC for the design stresses typically adds to the cost.

Trusses are used for large spans and heavy loads, especially in bridges and roofs. Their open construction is lighter than, yet just as strong as, a beam with a solid web between upper and lower lines. The members are known as tie-beams, posts, rafters, and struts; the distance over which the truss extends is called the span.
