The Advantages of the Aluminum Stage Truss System

The aluminum stage truss system is an essential part of any event or installation project.aluminum stage truss system Whether you are using it to hang lighting or speakers, to display banners or digital signage, to create a structural element for a facade or for the construction of a large event venue, truss is a versatile option that offers the flexibility to be shaped and manipulated to suit your vision. While aluminium trusses can take some of the heaviest loads on the market they are not indestructible and care must be taken when installing them to ensure their safety.

There are a number of different types of aluminium stage lighting truss that can be used for different purposes depending on the size and weight of the equipment to be rigged. They can be hung from the ceiling, flown or supported on the ground depending on the logistics of the space and the weight of the equipment.

The truss is usually constructed in sections and the connections are made using a system of conical fittings. This is a fast-duty connection that can be made quickly and easily to fit the different shapes of truss together. Most truss brands will use the same connection systems making them compatible and interchangeable. Ladder truss is the most basic form of aluminium truss and has a ladder-like structure, triangle truss has a three-tube system that is eye catching and provides greater load bearing capability than ladder truss, whilst quad truss has four-tubes and can support the heaviest load.

Once the truss is constructed, it is then attached to other pieces of equipment by means of various cables, chains, straps, lifting slings or harnesses depending on the equipment type and size. The equipment can then be hung from the truss or flown above the audience area by being hoisted in the air by cranes, electric chain hoists or manually by experienced riggers using cables and chains.

If the truss is being used to hold lighting, speakers or any other electrical or mechanical equipment then there are additional safety measures that must be taken. For example, if the truss is being used as a lighting frame then it must not be covered or added to with any tarpaulin or mesh as this will increase the wind force and cause accidents.

In addition, the truss should not be built above any roof or structure where there is a risk of it being blown over by the wind. If this happens then the structure can collapse which will result in serious injuries to people and damage to property. This is why it is important that a professional rigger is used to construct and install trusses for events as they have the expertise to ensure that these safety precautions are followed. They also have the necessary insurance to cover any damage caused to other property as a result of the truss being installed incorrectly. Dragon Stage has a wealth of experience in the design and manufacture of aluminum trusses for events.
