What is the load capacity of the 10x20 Goal Post Square Truss System EVT290S-Dinuba?

The EVT290S-Dinuba system supports a maximum load of 200 lb per linear foot on a 10-foot span and 120 lb per linear foot on a 20-foot span, assuming even distribution and no bridling. Always use 1400 lbs ballast per corner or anchor to concrete when adding rear scrims, and inspect for damage before use.

How do you assemble the EVT290S-Dinuba 10x20 square truss goal post?

Assembly requires only a steel hammer and can be done by two people familiar with truss; it uses a secure conical connection system with pins and r-clips for quick setup. Handle segments carefully to avoid damage, ensure all couplers are secure, and follow TUV safety guidelines.

System Compatibility

EVT290S, F34, and Standard 290 mm Square Truss Systems.

EVT290S-Dinuba uses 290 mm square truss geometry, 50 mm main chords, and a matching conical connection system. Compatibility requires matching receiver spacing, coupler dimensions, and engineering data.

EVT290S Compatibility

Integrates with compatible EVT290S straight sections, corners, junctions, and expansion components.

F34 Compatibility

Compatible with matching F34 290 mm square truss geometry and conical hardware.

Standard 290 mm Square Systems

Verify receiver spacing, connection geometry, and engineering data before combining systems.

50 mm Clamp Compatibility

Main chords accept properly rated standard 50 mm / 2 in clamps.

Modular Expansion

Expand the Goal Post with Compatible EVT290S Components.

The source states that the system can be expanded by adding compatible EVT290S pieces. Any modified configuration must be reviewed for loading, stability, geometry, and site conditions.

Increase Width

Add compatible EVT290S straight sections to develop a wider engineered span.

Increase Height

Use compatible sections to create a taller engineered configuration where appropriate.

Grow Rental Inventory

Use shared EVT290S components across compatible systems and future builds.

Engineering Review

Modified structures require professional review before installation or use.

Assembly Sequence

Build the Goal Post in a Controlled Sequence.

Assembly should be completed by two people familiar with truss structures. Inspect all components before use and follow the supplied drawing and approved installation plan.

01 — Lay Out Components

Arrange the crossbeam sections, vertical legs, and connection hardware in their intended positions.

02 — Inspect Every Part

Remove damaged truss, couplers, pins, or retaining clips from service.

03 — Assemble the Crossbeam

Connect the horizontal span at ground level using the complete conical hardware set.

04 — Assemble the Legs

Build both vertical supports and verify matching orientation.

05 — Raise and Connect

Use a controlled method appropriate for the system weight and final installation plan.

06 — Final Inspection

Confirm every connection, retaining clip, attachment, ballast, and support condition before use.

Safety and Engineering

Plan Every Installation for Loads, Stability, and Site Conditions.

Do not exceed the allowable load capacity of the complete EVT290S-Dinuba configuration.

The documented distributed-load guidance is 200 lb per linear foot on a 10 ft span and 120 lb per linear foot on a 20 ft span, with loads evenly distributed and no bridling.

When using a rear scrim or banner, the source specifies 1,400 lb of ballast at each corner or anchorage to concrete.

Inspect all truss sections and connection hardware before every use. Remove damaged components from service immediately.

Distribute loads equally between the appropriate chords and do not apply loads at truss connections.

Account for wind, transverse forces, banners, scrims, lighting, signage, and all other attached equipment.

Use only properly rated clamps and attachment hardware for the 50 mm main chords.

A licensed professional engineer must review the final structure and loading where required.
