What is the difference between using this system as a trade show booth versus a motion capture studio?

Structurally, the truss system is identical in both applications — the difference is in what gets attached to it and how the interior space is used. As a trade show booth, the overhead grid supports lighting, signage, monitors, and branded canopy elements above a 20x20 exhibit floor. As a motion capture studio, the same grid supports camera arrays, marker targets, and LED lighting positioned at precise heights and angles to cover the capture area below. The 4-configuration flexibility means the same structural investment transitions between both applications as your needs change.

What is the maximum height the EVT290S-Carson can reach, and can it be configured taller than the standard setup?

The standard configuration dimensions are approximately 20 ft wide x 10 ft high x 20 ft deep based on the schema data. Height can be adjusted by substituting different EVT290S vertical section lengths or adding additional sections, subject to the structural load limits of the full assembly. A licensed professional engineer must review any non-standard height configuration before use, and all modifications must use EVT290S series components.

Assembly Overview

Build the Crown and Reconfigurable Overhead Grid First. Then Add the Vertical Supports.

Assemble the perimeter crown, center block, and crossover sections at floor level before raising the structure and installing the vertical supports.

01 — Organize Components

Lay out straight sections, corners, center block, bases, couplers, pins, and R-clips.

02 — Build the Perimeter Crown

Connect the four upper sides into the square roof perimeter.

03 — Install the Reconfigurable Overhead Grid

Connect the crossover sections to the center four-way block and roof corners.

04 — Position Base Components

Place and secure the bases according to the approved layout.

05 — Add Vertical Supports

Raise the crown in a controlled sequence and connect the legs.

06 — Final Inspection

Verify every coupler, tapered pin, R-clip, base, ballast point, and attachment.

Safety and Engineering

Booth Loads and Overhead Attachments Must Be Evaluated as One System.

Final capacity depends on the booth configuration, lighting, signs, audio, monitors, graphics, ballast, floor conditions, and venue requirements.

Use only complete, undamaged EVT290S-compatible components and connection hardware.

Do not place loads directly at truss connections unless permitted by the applicable engineering data.

Evaluate all lighting, signs, audio equipment, monitors, graphics, and suspended elements before installation.

Use ballast or engineered anchorage appropriate to the actual configuration, loading, and venue conditions. Sandbags are recommended for added stability in high-traffic or outdoor environments.

Use approved secondary retention for suspended fixtures and accessories where required.

Assembly should be performed by trained personnel following an approved installation plan.
