King post truss frame with over roof. This is an example of how the roofs are done in Europe. The truss supports an over roof made up of smaller timbers. The truss supports the purlins and the purlins support the common rafters. Using this type of truss you have to be sure the truss rafters feet meet the tie beam correctly and the tie is correctly supported under this point. All the roof load comes to this point, and it has to be supported.
