A literature review was conducted and supplemented with new research on the performance of conventional roof systems and components including ceiling joist to rafter connections and roof framing to wall connections.
There is a hierarchy of timber framing at work here with trusses supporting the ridge and purlin beams.
Also referred to as a ribbon or band board rise vertical distance from bottom most part of the bottom chord to inside of the peak.

It provides lateral restraints and remains as a permanent lateral restraint.
For many multi family projects floor and roof trusses joists span from unit wall to unit wall while interior non load bearing walls tend to fall near the center of the floor span.
Above these components is a rack of common rafters.
Most importantly the stabilizer saves time and money.
As a result these non bearing walls could end up attracting a majority of the floor load if built tight to the underside of the floor framing system.
