A strut joint of a truss features a contact trough on an inner chord face being in an area contact with a rotationally symmetric strut end surface having a contact radius of at least half a strut height. The rotation axis of the strut end surface and the trough is substantially perpendicular to the struts protrusion direction and the chord's protrusion direction. The area contact provides for snug contact irrespective deviations from a predetermined strut joint angle between strut end and chord. An optional interposing structure may extend the area contact in between two opposite strut end surfaces of a single strut joint.
