TRUSS MEMBER

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a truss member capable of forming a diagonal member and a chord member integrally. SOLUTION: This truss member is constituted in such a way that chord member constituting parts 2a, 2b being parts which become chord members and diagonal member constituting parts 3a, 3b being parts which become diagonal members are alternately provided in the right and left directions, crank-shaped slits 40a, 40b, 40c, 40d composed of a horizontal slit 5 crossing the diagonal member constituting parts and vertical slits 4a, 4b extended on a front side and a rear side along sections among the chord member constituting parts and the diagonal member constituting parts from both ends of the horizontal slit, respectively, are provided at an interval in the forward and backward directions, the vertical slits 4a, 4b in the crank-shaped slits being adjacent in the forward and backward directions are mutually overlapped, and two crank-shaped slits 40a, 40b and two crank-shaped slits 40c, 40d positioned on both sides of the chord member constituting parts are symmetrically formed for the chord member constituting parts. This truss member is extended in the direction of width and is bent into the predetermined shape, and two truss members are mutually combined in the vertical direction or in the inside and outside directions to manufacture a truss structural body simply.
