My truss in the basement extend approx. 6 inches below the rim joist
area. I am trying to add blocking for a wood framed wall parallel to
the trusses.
Are there any proper ways of accomplishing this? The lower portion of
the truss is in line with the pored cement wall.
Thanks

I'm not a hundred percent sure I understand your question. I don't
think there is one proper way to install blocking. I would put 2x4's
flatways 24" oc. if you have to fasten them to a concrete wall, you
could anchor a plate to the concrete.
