Elongated structural member

An elongated structural member used in the manufacturing of houses, buildings, bridges and the like, said elongated structural member comprising:

• an elongated upper chord having a T-shape defining a first horizontal member and a first vertical leg, said first vertical leg being attached to said first horizontal member at the midpoint in width of said first horizontal member, said first vertical leg having a front side and a rear side;
• an elongated lower chord having a T-shape defining a second horizontal member and a second vertical leg, said second vertical leg being attached to said second horizontal member at the midpoint in width of said second horizontal member, said second vertical leg having a second front side and a second rear side, said upper chord being located in a reverse position to said lower chord with said first vertical leg being aligned with said second vertical leg;
• a first brace member being fixed to said first front side of said first vertical leg and said second front side of said second vertical leg and assuming an inclined, non-perpendicular position relative to said upper chord and said lower chord;
• and
• a second brace member being fixed to said first rear side of said first vertical leg and said second rear side of said second vertical leg and assuming an inclined, non-perpendicular position relative to said upper chord and said lower chord, said second brace member being longitudinally spaced from said first brace member.
