Here's a "standard" way (3dPDF) that I use for discussing a system BEFORE anything is made: i.e. any Topology, any solution, anything at all: just some sketches in some roller towel are more than enough. Additionally some wise provision related with clash matters is a VERY good thing (Simplex type or tensegrity trusses is a clash nightmare). 

Notice the fact that some components can been used as Blocks "as-they-are": for instance the Norseman cable tensioner but some others must been defined as geometry and then used as blocks ... and then ... er ... some that are way out of what Rhino/GH can do like this feature driven assembly "variant" for managing struts meeting "events" (must be "stronger" so to speak) VS cable meeting "events" :

Moral: since a T truss is actually a machine ... always design the system (or outline it anyway) BEFORE firing up GH or GC or Dynamo or whatever app you may think appropriate for the job.
