10x20 Trade Show Exhibit Display Booth | EVT290T-Bishop

Product Description

The EVT290T-Bishop is a 10x20 triangular aluminum truss booth built on the EVT290T 290mm (11.41 in) medium-duty triangular truss series — engineered for exhibitors who need the angular visual identity of triangular truss in a 10x20 footprint without the complexity or cost of larger structural systems. Fabricated from EN AW-6082 T6 aluminum alloy with a brushed finish and built to TUV specifications, the Bishop weighs 354 lb and stands at 9.84 ft overhead. The triangular chord profile creates distinct angular overhead geometry that square truss systems cannot replicate — giving exhibitors a structural identity that stands apart on a crowded show floor without requiring a custom fabrication budget. Two reconfigurable layouts cover inline and small island configurations, and the conical connection system assembles with a small hammer and a 3 to 4 person crew. All couplers, tapered pins, and R-clips are included.

Key Features

• Triangular truss profile: The EVT290T chord geometry creates angular overhead line work that square truss cannot produce — a structural identity visible from across the show floor that reads as intentionally designed rather than off-the-shelf infrastructure.
• 354 lb total system weight: Ships by standard freight, moves with a small crew, and keeps drayage costs in check at every show — a meaningful advantage over heavier 10x20 configurations when running a multi-show circuit.
• Two reconfigurable layouts: Inline for standard aisle assignments, small island when an end-cap or corner position opens up — two documented configurations from the same set of components.
• 9.84 ft overhead height: Fits within the standard inline height restrictions enforced at most trade show venues and association conference exhibit halls.
• Small hammer assembly: No power tools, no specialized rigging knowledge — a 3 to 4 person crew builds the full structure with a small hammer and the included hardware.
• F33 compatible: Integrates with F33 and all standard 290mm triangular truss systems, protecting inventory compatibility across platforms.
• Full EVT290T series expandability: Every component connects directly to the broader EVT290T catalog — the Bishop grows into larger triangular configurations as the exhibit program scales.
• TUV specifications with engineering report availability: Documentation available for venues that require formal safety review before approving custom truss structures.

Who It's For

• Specialty food, beverage, and consumer product brands: You're exhibiting at Expo West, Fancy Food, or Summer Fancy Food in a 10x20 inline and need a booth that communicates brand character before a visitor steps inside. The EVT290T triangular overhead creates angular geometry that standard square truss can't replicate — giving your brand a structural presence that competes visually with larger island exhibits across the aisle at a fraction of the island build cost.
• Architecture, design, and creative services firms: Your studio or agency exhibits at AIA, NeoCon, or a design industry conference and your booth infrastructure needs to reflect the same geometric intentionality as your work. A triangular truss overhead signals visual thinking in a language your audience already speaks. The 10x20 footprint gives you enough overhead span to create a defined environment for portfolio display and client conversations without the overhead of a larger structural build.
• Technology startup exhibitors at industry conferences: You're exhibiting for the first time at CES, TechCrunch Disrupt, or a vertical SaaS conference and need a 10x20 structure that reads as premium without a custom fabrication budget. The Bishop puts a structural truss overhead in your space that distinguishes it from the fabric pop-ups and tension displays on either side, and the two layout options give your team flexibility when the show floor assignment shifts between registration and setup day.
• Industrial equipment and manufacturing exhibitors: Your company exhibits capital equipment, manufacturing tools, or industrial components at IMTS, FABTECH, or PackExpo and needs a 10x20 inline structure with a credible overhead mounting geometry for lighting and signage. The EVT290T triangular system is mechanically legible to an engineering-literate audience and provides the overhead span needed to illuminate floor-level equipment demonstrations from above without a custom structural solution.

Clamp Compatibility — Read Before You Buy

The EVT290T-Bishop uses 50mm (1.97 in) main chord tubing. All lighting fixtures, monitor mounts, and rigging hardware must use 50mm clamps specifically rated for this chord diameter. Confirm clamp compatibility before specifying any attached loads.

Safety and Engineering

• Load distribution: Do not exceed the specified load capacity of the EVT290T-Bishop. All loads must be distributed equally across all chords.
• Pre-use inspection: Inspect all truss segments, couplers, tapered pins, and R-clips before every assembly. Any component showing damage or defects must be removed from service immediately and marked "DO NOT USE."
• Hardware seating: Confirm all conical connections are fully seated with coupler pins and R-clips properly secured before applying any load.
• Assembly personnel: Truss assembly should only be carried out by personnel familiar with trussing techniques and conical connection systems.
• Handling: Handle truss segments carefully — avoid dropping, dragging, or stacking them on top of each other.
• Wind and transverse forces: When deploying outdoors or in high-airflow environments, account for wind load and other transverse forces in the structural design.
• Compatibility: Do not mix trusses or components from different manufacturers within the same structure.
• Engineering review: A licensed professional engineer must review all overhead rigging plots, custom configurations, and permanent installations prior to use.
• Ground stability: The use of sand bags is recommended for maximum stability on all non-anchored deployments.
