Additional information

Weight 41 lbs
Dimensions 12 × 12 × 60 in

A 12-inch square aluminum box truss section, 5 feet long and 41 lbs. The odd length that trims a header to fit and finishes a run cleanly against a wall.

Description

Odd lengths solve real problems on site, and five feet is the one that gets used most. It splits the difference between the six-foot and three-foot sections when a span refuses to divide evenly.

5FT ALUMINUM BOX TRUSS dimensions and weight

A 12 in square aluminum section, 5 ft long, at 41 lbs. Light enough to hand up to a crew member already on a ladder, which is why it turns up in the fiddly parts of a build.

What rigging does a section like this require?

Whatever the drawing calls for. Couplers, blocks, and supports are specified by the rigger and reviewed by the venue, and nothing goes overhead in a Milwaukee hall without that approval in writing first.

Trimming a run to fit

Five-foot sections finish a header that ends short of a wall, form a low leg, or step a structure down at the end of a run. Keep the block and base family consistent so nothing has to be adapted on site.
