Professional 13x13x11m Concert Roof Stage Truss System
1. Introduction: Unrivaled Scale for Major Concert Productions
For the largest outdoor festivals, arena concerts, and public spectaculars, a massive, high-load-bearing structure is non-negotiable. The DragonStage 13m (W) x 13m (D) x 11m (H) Concert Roof Stage Truss System is engineered to meet these extreme demands, providing a colossal, certified framework capable of supporting vast arrays of professional lighting, line array speakers, and large format video screens.
This system is the definitive solution for event production companies and touring professionals who require uncompromising structural integrity and an impressive visual presence on a truly grand scale. Its specialized heavy-duty components ensure maximum safety and a rapid, efficient build process for the most complex productions.
2. Solving the Challenges of Large-Span Heavy-Duty Rigging
The primary challenge in managing a truss system of this size is maintaining extreme stability and certified load capacity across a 13-meter span and an 11-meter height. The use of standard, lighter-duty truss is insufficient and unsafe for the high vertical and dynamic loads of a major concert.
DragonStage addresses this by integrating two different sizes of high-strength square truss: CS389x389 for the main beams to manage the expansive span and heavy loads, and CS289x289 for the crucial 10.00m-tall support pillars and roof components. All sections feature a robust $50 \times 3.0$mm main tube, a hallmark of professional-grade aluminum construction. This targeted use of heavy-duty components minimizes the total packing weight (2500kg) and volume (22cbm) for a system of this scale, optimizing transportation while guaranteeing structural integrity and compliance with international safety standards (Source:https://www.dragontruss.com/Aluminum-Truss-pl3962133.html).
3. Core Technical Features for Safety and Operational Success
The 13x13x11m Concert Roof Stage Truss is a fully integrated system, complete with all necessary components for safe and effective deployment.
Massive Footprint and Unyielding Support
Main Beams: The 13.00m front and side beams utilize the heavy-duty CS389x389 truss, specifically designed for long, unsupported spans and maximum payload distribution.
Pillars and Height: Four 10.00m tall support pillars provide the necessary vertical lift to achieve the impressive 11m overall height, crucial for large-scale rigging and audience sightlines.
Stability System: The structural framework is secured with 4 Spigot Sleeve Blocks S, 4 Steel Base S components, and 16 Long Outriggers to ensure a grounded, wide stance capable of resisting wind uplift and lateral forces.
Full-Featured Rigging and Lifting Gear
Lifting: The package includes 4 Manual Hoists (BA05) rated at 2 Tons each, alongside matching Fibre Slings (BA04), providing the essential mechanical advantage for safe vertical assembly and load management.
Roof and Weather Protection: A comprehensive roof system, including specialized roof corners and a large PVC canopy (total area $272.46m^2$), offers critical protection against rain and sun, extending the lifespan of installed equipment.
Integrated Wings and Accessories
Wings for Sound: The system includes dedicated structures for line array speaker wings, featuring 2.00m Wings Beams (CS389x389) and 10.00m Wings Pillars (CS289x289). These wings provide independent, structurally sound attachment points for heavy audio clusters.
Complete Hardware: A whole set of Conical Couplers, Safety Clips, and Pins ensures fast, secure, and standardized assembly of every joint throughout the massive structure.
4. Practical FAQ for Large Event Rigging Contractors
| Question | Answer |
| Q: What is the primary function of the different truss sizes? | The wider CS389x389 is used for long horizontal spans (beams) and the CS289x289 is used for vertical elements (pillars) and roof parts, balancing load capacity with optimal material efficiency. |
| Q: What is the maximum height of the roof truss structure? | The system is designed to reach an impressive total height of 11 meters, providing ample clearance for large video walls and complex lighting designs. |
| Q: Are the roof and side wings included in the system? | Yes, the truss for the side wings (used for hanging line arrays) and the protective PVC roof canopy are fully included in this professional package. |
| Q: How is the system secured on the ground? | Stability is achieved via Steel Base S plates, Long Outriggers (16 pcs), and the appropriate use of water or concrete ballast tied to the outrigger points, according to site-specific load calculations. |
