So anyway, I had been looking for the original manufacturer's load tables for the Truss Joist TJ/60 series open web composite truss. The 48 inch deep truss appears in a roof system built in 1980 and bears the Red Built RedS triangle stamp. The best I was finding was the PDF that others have posted which shows that the TJ/60 series is dimensionally consistent with the current TJS series.

While searching I just came across an actual non-snow load table for the TJ/60 series truss buried in a report I found online. Basically, it confirms that the TJ/60 is a slightly stronger ancestor of the TJS series. I am posting a copy in case anyone else needs to find it.
