What is event truss used for?

The event truss is a type of aluminium truss that provides a clear line of sight to the stage area by attaching equipment to the roof of the event space through the event truss. The event truss is used in a wide range of applications for events and large venues such as concerts and shows.

 

The main characteristics of event truss

·Lightweight quality

The lightweight mass of our event truss makes it easier and safer to transport, as it is half the weight of iron thanks to its aluminium construction. In other words, the light weight reduces labour costs to a large extent.

·High load capacity

A complete aluminium truss system consists of various lengths and sizes of aluminium trusses, bases, counter-heads, inclined supports and other components. Our event trusses have a high load capacity and are guaranteed to perform well once they have been installed in the correct manner.

 

The event truss is the most important piece of structural equipment during the event and plays a vital role in the truss project. The quality of event trusses is guaranteed by our strict production process. In general, an event truss system has a service life of more than 10 years.

 

Function of event truss components

·Bases

The base is the core component of the event truss and the first step in its installation. The base is mainly used for ground stabilisation. Before installing the base, clear the site according to the size of the installation. If there are any uneven areas, first level them without any large pits, measure the position of the column with a ruler and mark it well.

·Reverse head

The counter head is used when the height of the building is high and can be erected to a higher height by means of a counter head. The counter head is used to connect with the base, install the counter head on the base, align the four holes with the screws and tighten with special tools.

·Inclined support

The diagonal brace is used to support the whole system of the aluminium truss to ensure the stability of the event truss.

 

In addition to the above-mentioned components, a typical event truss also consists of a square sleeve, a cross-stretcher, a hoist and a sling. Before installing the event truss, make sure that the surface of all components is smooth and free from flying edges or burrs, and check the cutting and welding of the components to avoid quality problems. In addition, it is important to avoid bad weather during the installation process, taking into account factors such as pressure resistance and wind resistance factors. Our aluminium trusses are generally made of 6061-T6 aluminium alloy, which has a strong corrosion resistance.
