About: Queen post

An Entity of Type: person, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

A queen post is a tension member in a truss that can span longer openings than a king post truss. A king post uses one central supporting post, whereas the queen post truss uses two. Even though it is a tension member, rather than a compression member, they are commonly still called a post. A queen post is often confused with a queen strut, one of two compression members in roof framing which do not form a truss in the engineering sense. The double punch truss appeared in Central Europe during the Renaissance.
