      I believe The Medeek Truss plugin makes that!
      But you must cut yourself with one click + line!

            Not sure that Face to Frame makes the "trapezoïd" ?

            A possible workflow can be
            Edges Tools by Thomthom
            Keep the vertical lines
            S4u to Components (maybe a resize vertical + rotation 😄
            (here the right module is a Goup ! )
            Then s4u slice because each stud is not "troncated" 😄 (see video above)

              Maybe better!
              It's truncated from a rectangular box ! 😄
              Just now find a trick for resize! 😄

                s4u has the gift to answer the real (3D monkeys) needs in most effectiveway.

                  Make a Component of 2 Components red & white (name the white one "bub")
                  Select All
                  S4u to components "Face to component Arrange"
                  Explode one time
                  Select by Name bub on the Onliner
                  Erase them
                  et voilà 😄

                  All studs are troncated (here Up and down) as wanted if start surface with hole(s) is very trapezoïdal! 😄

                  Click image for animation! 😄

                    You could maybe try 2dBoolean for this. To me it looks exactly what you want.
                    A Picture might explain better.
                    Note that the Component instances are flat (2d).

                      You could use the Solid Tools to do this, too.

                        Thats quite a lot of suggestions.
                        Will have to try them out but at a glance the 2d boolean looks promising.
