What is a roof truss? Well it’s a dual rafter and joists unit. It is much lighter than the regular roofing frame. Because they are easier to manage, more and more houses are made with trusses.

Deci "roof truss" este doar un subansamblu al sarpantei.

If şarpantă suggests the entire roof, the term to use is not truss. Please see description of truss:
"ROOF TRUSS: A prefabricated timber frame that forms one of the structural supports FOR A ROOF."
http://www.simplifydiy.com/glossary/q-r
Example sentence:

"...cut and pitched timber roof frame over those walls."
