The tetrahedron shape is the most representative shape of the basic idea and concept of a roof trusses structure.
The roof truss is made and used to help frame the actual shape of the roof itself. The trusses are generally pre-fabricated out of wood and are ultimately what holds the roof up. This leads to various advantages, such as a strong shape or style of a truss that can be built, with the load bearing characteristics that are such long sections, distribution of the load to the walls rather than onto the interior walls and finally trusses that can be built quickly and assembled.
A lot of the normal configurations of roof trusses encountered are names according to their shape such as the W truss, M, Scissors and Gable. Once the roof trusses are up they can be fastened to metal plates before being covered by a sheet of plywood.
