Does anyone know if there is a parametric wood truss family for Revit 2017?  Do I need to draw the trusses?

 

I am a newbie to Revit Structure so any help is appreciated!!

There are lots of truss families by default in Revit...just start the Truss command and then load them from the Imperial Library.  As for the material being wood, I assume this is for a Residential project.  If so, start with a residential template file and then use the truss command.  Once the truss you want is loaded, use it.  Then go to its properties to specify the type of member you want for the webs, top and bottom chords.
