Evan,
That's not an "alteration" *to the truss*. (Unless, of course, Brandon says differently.
)
However, as Brandon pointed out, it does change the loading on the truss top chord.
MANY truss installations will have some conventional framing added to them on the site, and the same is specified in the truss drawings ... which we do not have privy to. Thus, we cannot simply state it is incorrect.
That said, though, there are many "obvious" issues with the way 'what was done' 'was done', an 'that' can be stated by the HI.
