How much weight can a lighting truss hold?

The weight capacity of a lighting truss depends on several factors, including the type of truss, the material used, and the way the truss is designed and installed.

For example, a box truss made of steel can typically hold more weight than a triangular truss made of aluminum. In general, larger and heavier-duty trusses are capable of holding more weight than smaller and lighter-duty trusses.

As a general rule of thumb, a box truss made of aluminum can hold up to 2,000 pounds (907 kg) of weight per 10-foot section, while a box truss made of steel can hold up to 6,000 pounds (2,722 kg) of weight per 10-foot section. A triangular truss made of aluminum can typically hold up to 500-700 pounds (227-318 kg) per 10-foot section.

However, it's important to note that these are general guidelines, and the actual weight capacity of a lighting truss will depend on several factors, including the specific design of the truss, the way it is installed, and any additional factors that may affect its load-bearing capacity, such as wind or vibration.

It is recommended to consult with a structural engineer or a professional event production company to determine the appropriate truss design and load capacity for a specific event. This will ensure that the truss is safe and capable of supporting the weight of the equipment used during the event.

different sectional sizes of truss shall have different loading capacity. if you want to know more information about the different sizes of truss, you can contact us. we shall provide technique datas.
