Truss - Items

Single Tube

At some events or conventions you may need to install lighting in an exact location. Sadly, it’s not always possible to do this using truss. That’s why truss is often provided with a single tube. This single tube often functions as an outrigger; an outrigger tube is mounted transversely or longitudinally to the truss. You can also rent a single truss for bracing corner pieces. Outdoor constructions have to deal with wind force, which makes reinforcement with single tubes necessary. By using the aluminium tube as a brace, you relieve the pressure on the corner pieces, which mitigates any damage.

Ladder Truss

Truss is a very robust and reliable material, but it takes up a lot of space during transport and use. If your truss isn’t going to be loaded too heavily, you could consider using ladder truss. This truss has just 2 tubes instead of 4. This means that this deco truss takes up much less space, whilst also looking much slimmer. Usually this compact truss is used for decorative applications, such as creating a welcome arch or signage during conventions and other business events.

You can also contact us for any necessary corner pieces, including the C003, C012, C016, C017, C020 and C024.

Baseplate

It’s quite commonplace to make use of a ground support or standing truss construction. This is logical, considering how cost efficient and risk-free it is. However, you can't just place upright trusses on the ground. It will not only damage the materials, the pressure also won’t be well distributed. The best solution is to rent a baseplate. You may only need it to distribute the pressure evenly. However, it also prevents the need for any extra stability or sturdiness. The use of heavy baseplates or even ballast blocks in outdoor constructions is quite common. By using a baseplate or ballast block you create a larger supporting surface and make the construction heavier.

Lift

When installing and disassembling truss constructions, safety is of the essence. Most accidents occur when building or dismantling a truss. Renting special truss lifts is essential when building a structure. A truss lift can support the structure during construction as well as helping with moving materials up and down. This wind up lift makes use of a winch, which makes it possible to lift heavy loads. For heavy and high constructions you can also make use of a so-called front loader, forklift or spoon lift, such as the Kuzar K-50. For smaller constructions a top loader, such as the Fantek T-101, will be sufficient.

Hoist

Would you like to use the floor space as well and efficiently as possible during your event? Then a ground support or standing truss construction is not an option. These kinds of constructions on legs can also obstruct the view of the exhibition stand or stage. In these situations you can also choose to hang trusses on the roof of the event location. With the help of hoists, the truss is lifted to the desired height. A manual hoist is often used for this purpose. Rigging trusses by using a hoist is not entirely risk-free and should always be done by a professional. This way you can be sure that the rigging and accompanying hoists are mounted correctly and safely.

Backdrop

Some event locations aren’t particularly elegant in and of themselves. Maybe you just want to create a soothing backdrop for your presentation, or provide a room with improved acoustics. In all these cases, renting a backdrop is the best solution. This special backdrop can be used to conceal an ugly wall or to create a soothing backdrop. This cloth also dampens annoying reverb and also has a darkening effect. A flannel canvas is therefore very suitable for use during all kinds of events. Our backdrops are always impregnated and therefore certified for use during events.

Rigging Accessories

Besides all the basic necessities such as trusses, tubes, baseplates and hoists, there are also numerous accessories that may be needed in your specific situation. After all, every event is different and therefore the materials required also vary. This is all part of organizing your rigging. Every product, every load and every position will require different materials. Lucky for you you’re at the right address for all of your rigging accessory needs, including soft steels, shackles, lifting eyes and swivel couplers. We also offer special clamps, like an airwall track bracket, tent clamp or AlumaLOK. Never forget to order a grounding cable when working with truss.
