A truss is a structural framework made of straight members connected at their ends by joints. These members are typically arranged in a triangular pattern to provide stability and support for the overall structure.
An example of a truss construction method from the chapter is the roof truss used in the construction of a warehouse. The roof truss consists of straight members connected at their ends to form a series of triangles, providing a strong and stable framework for supporting the roof of the warehouse. This type of construction method is commonly used in building structures such as bridges, roofs, and towers to distribute the load and provide stability.

The style attributed to the residential architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright is commonly known as the Prairie School style. This architectural style emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and is characterized by its emphasis on horizontal lines, flat or hipped roofs with broad overhanging eaves, windows grouped in horizontal bands, integration with the landscape, solid construction, craftsmanship, and discipline in the use of ornament.
Frank Lloyd Wright's designs were inspired by the flat, expansive landscape of the American Midwest. He sought to create structures that were in harmony with humanity and its environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture. This approach was evident in his iconic residential designs, such as the Robie House in Chicago and the Fallingwater in Pennsylvania. Wright's homes often featured open floor plans, natural materials, and a strong connection between the interior and exterior spaces.
Wright's innovative designs and his Prairie School style had a significant impact on the development of modern architecture, influencing generations of architects worldwide.
