The large triangles are divided again with boards (magenta

All are same length and attached with screws, nails, and Strong Tie metal
connectors. Used for supporting the cover of whatever type, these might
be 2 x 2 boards on a greenhouse, or 2 x 4s along with 2 x 4 or 2 x 6 construction
of the main dome struts. More may be added in areas with snow or high winds
or as required to support roof materials. Here they are shown 24" On Center.
