A 12-inch square aluminum box truss section, 8 feet long and 60 lbs. The workhorse length for goalposts, headers, and stacked vertical legs, with matching blocks and bases.
Eight-foot sections are the workhorse of a truss build: long enough to cover ground quickly, short enough that two crew can walk one into a booth without a lift. Most ground-supported goalposts get built out of these.
A 12 in square aluminum section, 8 ft long, at 60 lbs. What it will carry depends entirely on configuration and support, so the load figure comes from the rigger rather than the product page.
Both are possible, but overhead rigging needs the venue’s permission and an approved drawing before anyone is on a lift. Ground-supported goalposts built from bases and vertical legs avoid that conversation altogether.
Stack two eight-foot sections for a sixteen-foot leg, or run them horizontally into a corner block for a header. Section, block, base, and spacer all have to come from the same family to bolt up cleanly.
Modern Event Rental delivers box truss for trade shows, general sessions, and brand activations throughout Milwaukee. Settle overhead rigging permission with the hall early, because that answer changes the parts list.
