@your_favorite_contractor: We all know sometimes these trusses can be super uneven and some of them hang a little bit lower than some of the other ones. So sometimes the wall kind of gets stuck on it. So instead of pounding on it with a hammer or a sledgehammer, you can just use leverage, which is when I'm demonstrating in this video here.

Look closely at your plans bro. There’s a reason the interior walls shouldn’t touch the trusses. You are taking the load off the foundation and putting it onto the subfloor. Not good.

Your interior walls shouldn’t be framed so tightly to the ceiling joist.

Erm… aren’t trusses not supposed to touch the top plate of the walls? For movement in the building and timber growth/reduction

na, ain't checking that out. immediately look closely at the prints at special instructions & sure it doesn't say to do that, so truss isn't pushed up, or cause cracking in sheetrock.do it right bro

Top-Plate should be doubled up when underneath a rafter, beam, etc. That's true for interior wall. Even if its not required by code.

The beam on the top above his head is bowed and has a huge gap. At least clamp it together and drill a couple thruLoks into.
