Description
The Global Truss F35 1.0m 5-Chord Square Linear Truss provides a practical solution for suspending loads centrally beneath square truss.
F35 measures 290 × 290mm and features 50mm Ø × 4mm main chords. An additional fifth chord runs along the bottom centre of the truss.
This centre chord creates a dedicated suspension position directly beneath the truss. It addresses a common challenge with conventional square truss, where two bottom chords sit either side of the centreline.
Designed for LED Screen Suspension
Global Truss developed F35 with smaller LED screen suspension as a key application.
LED screens can create a long, continuous load beneath a truss span. They can also require tighter control of deflection than many general truss applications.
The central fifth chord provides a practical position for centring this type of suspended load. F35 also uses a 4mm main chord wall thickness to increase strength and stiffness.
A Versatile Fifth Chord
LED screens aren’t the only application for the additional chord.
The bottom-centre chord can also provide a useful suspension point for drapes, set pieces and other compatible suspended elements. This gives production and installation crews greater flexibility when a load needs to follow the centreline of the truss.
F35 can also support more general truss applications. Loads must always follow the applicable engineering data and approved loading configuration.
Engineering for Deflection-Sensitive Applications
F35 engineering includes loading information for different bottom-chord configurations.
Engineering data covers bottom-centre-chord loading with deflection limited to ≤1:300. This tighter deflection criterion is particularly relevant to applications such as LED screen suspension.
Data is also provided for bottom-outer-chord loading with deflection limited to ≤1:100.
Always refer to the current Global Truss engineering documentation and load tables when determining allowable spans, loads and configurations.
