First remove the gusset plate that has partially or fully pulled away from the two pieces of wood.
Attic trusses gusset plate pulled back.
These are usually much larger than the metal plate being replaced.
House built in 2005 garage has poured foundation small cracks on both side walls that go all the way thru foundation to outside of house.
The size and nailing pattern will be specified by the engineer.
The normal repair is to install a plywood or osb gusset plate nailed in place.
I wasnt sure if the cracks in the garage walls were related to he gusset plates.
For truss repairs to be effective the gusset plates must be in contact with the wood members and the nails must extend through all members.
I saw three seperate trusses where the gusset plates were pulling out of the wood.
Because it s nearly impossible to reinstall the plate replace it with a 1 2 plywood gusset.
I would try to pull down on the top chord to see if the nails lineup with its current position which would indicate the damage was done before the roof sheathing was applied.
It s a sob and the plate gets mangled in the process.
Sometimes an engineer will specify a metal replacement plate with nails.
Ever try pulling a truss plate off.
However this is often not a simple process.
Metal connector plates can sometimes be pressed back when the teeth are still in alignment with the original holes.
