EVT290S Truss Systems Knowledge Center
1.0 m Square Aluminum Straight Truss Section.
A Standard Length for F34 Truss Designs.
The EVT290S-100 is a brushed-aluminum straight truss section for compatible EVT290S, F34, and matching 290 mm square-truss systems. Use this standard 3.28 ft section to build truss runs, frames, grids, and support structures where the project drawing calls for a full-meter member.
Identity and Core Facts
Straight Section Overview
A 3.28 ft Straight Truss Section for F34 Truss Designs.
The EVT290S-100 is the standard 1 m member in the EVT290S range. Use it to build compatible truss runs, lighting grids, display frames, goalposts, and support structures where a full-meter section is called for. It pairs with shorter and longer EVT290S straight sections to complete the planned truss layout.
Length Selection
Why Choose a 3.28 ft Straight Truss Section?
The 1 m section is a standard length for many F34-compatible truss designs. Use it to establish regular run lengths, build repeated bays, and combine with shorter or longer sections where the project drawing calls for a full-meter member.
Applications
A Standard Member for Production and Display Builds.
Use the EVT290S-100 wherever a compatible truss build calls for a standard 1 m / 3.28 ft section. The completed structure determines the required supports, rigging method, loads, and accessories.
Series Construction
290 mm Square Truss with Conical Coupler Connections.
The EVT290S-100 carries the core construction of the EVT290S series in a standard 1 m straight section: a 290 x 290 mm square profile, 50 mm main chords, 20 mm diagonal braces, EN AW-6082 T6 aluminum, brushed-aluminum finish, and conical end connections.
Included Connection Hardware
What Ships with the EVT290S-100.
Each straight section ships with the connection hardware used to join it to compatible conical-receiver components. Confirm the project component schedule before assembly; a finished structure may also require longer sections, corners, base plates, clamps, ballast, rigging hardware, and other project-specific items.

System Compatibility
Match the Truss Profile and Connection Before You Build.
The EVT290S-100 is intended for compatible EVT290S, F34, and matching 290 mm square-truss systems using conical connections. Similar appearance alone does not establish compatibility. Confirm the receiver spacing, coupler fit, chord spacing, alignment, and applicable system documentation before assembly.
Related System Components
Add the Accessories Required by Your Configuration.
The EVT290S-100 fits within a broader 290 mm truss system. Related components should be selected separately according to the planned structure and approved application; their product pages carry their own fit, use, and working-load information where applicable.
Connection and Inspection
Confirm Fit First. Then Seat, Pin, and Retain.
Once receiver spacing and compatible hardware are confirmed, assemble the connection in this order. Prepare the current project drawing, compatible mating components, supplied connection hardware, and approved support or rigging plan. Assemble on a stable work surface with access to inspect every receiver and pin location.
Engineering Reference
F34 Load-Span Information Applies to the Completed Truss Run.
Compatible F34 load-span tables are available as a general reference for simply supported truss runs up to 39.4 ft / 12 m. The tables address the completed truss configuration—not an individual EVT290S-100 straight section—and should be used only with the applicable engineering notes, connection requirements, and project review.
System Responsibility
Capacity Comes from the Completed Configuration.
This 3.28 ft / 1.0 m section does not establish an independent span or load rating for a finished structure. Determine capacity from the complete arrangement, including connected components, span, orientation, supports, attachment locations, rigging method, applied loads, and environmental exposure. Use applicable manufacturer load tables and engineering information for the system being built.
Frequently Asked Questions
EVT290S-100 Questions.
Why choose a 3.28 ft / 1 m straight truss section?
The 1 m section is a standard length for compatible EVT290S and F34 truss runs, frames, grids, and support structures. Combine it with other available lengths where the project drawing calls for a full-meter member.
What conical connection hardware is included?
Each EVT290S-100 section includes 4 conical couplers, 8 coupler pins, and 8 r-clips for compatible conical connections.
Can EVT290S-100 be connected to F34 truss?
Use it with F34 or other 290 mm systems only when receiver spacing, conical coupler fit, chord spacing, connection interface, and applicable engineering information are confirmed.
Can compatible 1.96 in / 50 mm clamps and other EVT290S accessories be used with this section?
The 1.96 in / 50 mm OD main chords accept compatible clamps for approved attachments. Select clamps, rigging accessories, and support components according to their individual product information and the requirements of the complete configuration.
