I purchased house in 2012 ( which was constructed in 2003) . Since the purchase, I noticed a crack in a Rafter in attic. See the images attached.
I ignored this crack till date assuming it is small. In last 3 yrs crack is as. No change in it. However just want to take opinion from other people - shall I add a sister joint to this raft ? Or looking at this crack - it seems not necessary ?
If I have to add a sister joint , shall patch only the cracked area or complete rafter ? shall I use nails or bolts ? Any view and help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
