Straight Section Overview

1.94 m F34 Square Truss for Start and Finish Line Systems.

The EVT290S-194 Black is a 1.94 m straight member for compatible 290 mm square-truss systems. It is selected when a project needs a longer modular section without moving to a full 2 m member. Use it for planned start/finish-line truss systems, event arches, race structures, stage frameworks, lighting grids, and other truss runs that require this length.

6.36 ft Straight Section
Use this section where the drawing calls for a 1.94 m member between compatible truss connection points.
Extended Modular Run
The 1.94 m length can reduce the need to combine shorter straight sections and add intermediate connections in a planned truss run.
Matte Black Finish
The matte-black powder coat supports installations where the truss should remain visually subdued around signage, timing displays, lighting, scenic elements, and camera-facing work.

Length Selection

Why Choose a 6.36 ft Straight Truss Section?

A 1.94 m section is useful when the project drawing calls for a longer modular run without using a full 2 m section. It can replace a combination of shorter sections where the completed layout calls for one 1.94 m straight run.

Add a 1.94 m Run
Use the 6.36 ft section when the drawing calls for a 1.94 m addition to a start/finish arch, raceway gantry, overhead banner frame, lighting grid, stage frame, perimeter, or support structure.
Plan Around the Drawing
Select the straight-section length called for in the project drawing, then confirm corners, towers, bases, supports, accessories, and connection hardware for the complete build.
Combine System Components
Pair this member with compatible EVT290S straight sections, corners, base plates, towers, and other components required for the planned structure.

Matte Black Finish

Built to Support the Event—Not Compete with It.

The EVT290S-194 Black uses a matte-black powder-coated finish for installations where truss should be visually restrained. Compared with bright aluminum surfaces, a matte-black truss finish can help reduce visible reflection and allow the structure to recede behind event branding, timing displays, lighting, scenic elements, and camera-facing work.

Race and Athletic Events
Use matte black where start/finish structures, route markers, and event gateways should support sponsor graphics and timing elements without drawing attention away from the event identity.
Camera-Facing Events
A low-reflective black finish can help reduce the visual prominence of truss around broadcast, livestream, photo-finish, presentation, and camera-facing event areas.
Event Branding
Choose matte black for a restrained architectural look when banners, sponsor signage, timing displays, route graphics, or branded scenic elements should carry the viewer's attention.
Stage and Live Production
Use matte black where lighting grids, goalposts, scenic frames, and support structures should remain less conspicuous under controlled stage lighting.

Start and Finish Line Infrastructure

One Truss Member in a Complete Race Arch or Event Gantry.

The EVT290S-194 Black can be used as a horizontal or structural member within a project-specific start/finish-line truss system. It is not a complete finish-line kit and does not independently establish a safe span, tower height, base requirement, ballast or anchorage requirement, banner capacity, timing-display capacity, wind rating, or outdoor approval.

Start/Finish Arch
Use compatible straight sections, corners, towers, bases, and connection hardware to build the geometry called for by the reviewed start/finish arch design.
Raceway Gantry
Use within a planned raceway gantry or overhead gateway for sponsor signage, event messaging, timing displays, route markers, or approved lighting equipment.
Branded Event Gateway
Build a project-specific branded event gateway around the required truss layout, graphic package, support conditions, crowd-clearance requirements, and access plan.
Outdoor Event Planning
Outdoor structures require project-specific review of wind, weather, surface conditions, ballast or anchorage, crowd exposure, equipment loads, site access, and local requirements.

Applications

A 1.94 m Member for Race, Event, Stage, and Display Systems.

Use the EVT290S-194 Black wherever a compatible truss build calls for a 1.94 m / 6.36 ft section. The completed structure determines the required supports, rigging method, loads, and accessories.

Start and Finish Line Truss
Use within a project-specific start/finish arch or gantry system for approved sponsor signage, event graphics, timing displays, route markers, and lighting equipment.
Event Arches and Gateways
Build reviewed event arches, branded gateways, entry structures, finish-line markers, and display frameworks around the required truss run.
Lighting and Stage Structures
Add a 1.94 m section to planned lighting grids, stage frames, goalposts, scenic structures, and production support layouts where the drawing calls for this length.
Exhibits and Displays
Use in trade-show exhibit frameworks, overhead branding, entryways, graphic-support frames, product display areas, and integrated lighting structures.

Series Construction

290 mm Square Truss with Conical Coupler Connections.

The EVT290S-194 Black carries the core construction of the EVT290S series in a 1.94 m straight section: a 290 x 290 mm square profile, 50 mm main chords, 20 mm diagonal braces, EN AW-6082 T6 aluminum, matte-black powder coat, and conical end connections.

290 mm Square Profile
The 290 x 290 mm profile is designed for compatible square-truss components with matching receiver spacing and connection interfaces.
50 mm Main Chords
Main chords measure 50 mm outside diameter with 2 mm wall thickness and provide the primary connection and accessory-attachment tubing.
20 mm Diagonal Braces
Diagonal braces measure 20 mm outside diameter with 2 mm wall thickness.
Conical Connection System
Conical couplers, coupler pins, and r-clips create the mechanical interface between compatible truss sections.

Included Connection Hardware

What Ships with the EVT290S-194 Black.

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, towers, base plates, clamps, ballast, rigging hardware, and other project-specific items.

4 Conical Couplers
Couplers create the mechanical connection between the section and compatible receiver ends.
8 Coupler Pins
Pins secure the couplers after the mating components have been aligned and fully seated.
8 R-Clips
R-clips retain each fully seated coupler pin and must be installed before the structure is moved or loaded.

System Compatibility

Match the Truss Profile and Connection Before You Build.

The EVT290S-194 Black 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.

Receiver Spacing
All four receiver positions should align without pulling, spreading, or forcing the truss faces together.
Coupler Seating
Use couplers that match the receiver interface of both connected components and verify even seating before installing pins.
1.96 in / 50 mm Clamp Fit
The 1.96 in / 50 mm OD main chords accept compatible clamps for approved equipment and accessory attachment.
Mixed Components
When components come from different sources, confirm physical fit and applicable engineering information before using them together.

Related System Components

Add the Accessories Required by Your Configuration.

The EVT290S-194 Black 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.

Matching Truss Components
Add compatible straight sections, corners, towers, base plates, and connection hardware to complete the required truss layout.
1.96 in / 50 mm Clamps
Use compatible clamps for approved signage, timing displays, lighting, equipment, and accessory attachment to the main chords.
Rigging and Retention
Select truss picks, slings, shackles, and safety cables from their individual product data and the requirements of the complete rigging plan.
Ground-Support Components
Select base plates, ballast, anchorage, and related support components according to the completed structure, site conditions, and reviewed requirements.

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.

01 — Inspect Components
Inspect the section, receiver ends, couplers, pins, and r-clips. Do not use bent, cracked, worn, or damaged components.
02 — Insert Couplers
Place the four conical couplers into the receiver positions and confirm that they sit correctly.
03 — Align the Truss Faces
Bring the mating component into position evenly. The truss faces should close without excessive force.
04 — Pin and Retain
After alignment is confirmed, install every coupler pin fully and fit an r-clip to every pin before moving, lifting, rigging, or loading the structure.
If a Connection Does Not Close
Stop assembly. Check receiver spacing, coupler fit, damage, debris, and alignment. Do not force the truss, modify components, or drive a pin against resistance. Resolve the cause before the structure is moved or loaded.

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-194 Black straight section—and should be used only with the applicable engineering notes, connection requirements, and project review.

Published Load Cases
Reference tables identify uniformly distributed loads, center-point loads, third-point loads, and quarter-point loads for applicable simply supported F34 truss spans.
Panel-Point Loading
Attach loads only at approved truss panel points. Do not assume that an arbitrary position along a chord is an approved load-attachment point.
Loads Are Not Additive
Published load cases are alternatives, not values to combine. Evaluate the actual span, support condition, load location, and load type using applicable engineering information.
Engineer Review Required
The engineering reference is general guidance only. Each finished truss structure, event arch, gantry, race setup, lighting plot, and use must be reviewed as required for the specific project by a licensed professional engineer.

System Responsibility

Capacity Comes from the Completed Configuration.

This 6.36 ft / 1.94 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, tower height, supports, base plates, ballast or anchorage, attachment locations, rigging method, applied loads, banners, signage, timing displays, lighting equipment, wind exposure, and environmental conditions. Use applicable manufacturer load tables and engineering information for the system being built.

Do not load an unverified connection point or treat one section as proof of capacity for the larger structure.
Attach loads only at approved truss panel points. Do not assume that an arbitrary position along a chord is an approved loading location.
Published load cases are not additive. Evaluate the actual span, support condition, load location, and load type using applicable engineering information for the completed truss run.
Do not use bridles unless they have been approved in writing by a licensed structural engineer. Dynamic or shock loads require separate consideration.
Inspect every coupler, pin, r-clip, clamp, banner attachment, sign mount, sling, shackle, safety cable, base, ballast or anchor, and attachment point before use. Replace damaged, worn, or improperly fitting parts.
A matte-black finish can help reduce visible reflection, but it does not replace project-specific camera, lighting, branding, crowd-management, wind, or safety planning.
Use trained personnel and obtain the project review required for suspended, public-facing, outdoor, load-bearing, race-event, start/finish-line, or otherwise regulated truss systems.
Documentation and Project Review
Product specifications, included hardware, compatibility information, and availability are subject to change without notice. Verify current product drawings, manufacturer instructions, connection hardware, and applicable engineering information before ordering, assembling, or using this product. This page does not approve a particular truss layout, span, loading condition, start/finish arch, raceway gantry, tower height, base or ballast arrangement, anchorage plan, rigging plan, support arrangement, outdoor installation, or public-facing structure. For suspended, load-bearing, public-facing, outdoor, race-event, start/finish-line, or otherwise regulated truss systems, obtain the project-specific review required by the applicable authority and a licensed structural engineer.

Frequently Asked Questions

EVT290S-194 Black Questions.

Why choose a 6.36 ft / 1.94 m straight truss section?

Choose this section when a compatible 290 mm square-truss design calls for a 1.94 m member. It provides a longer modular option without using a full 2 m straight section.

Can this truss be used in a start and finish line system?

It can be used as one component within a project-specific compatible start/finish arch or raceway gantry. Confirm the completed system layout, span, tower height, base plates, ballast or anchorage, banner and equipment loads, wind exposure, site conditions, and required engineering review before use.

Why use a matte-black truss finish?

Matte-black powder coating can help reduce visible reflection and make the structural framework less visually prominent around event branding, timing displays, lighting, and camera-facing areas. It is a finish-selection benefit, not a guarantee of camera or event performance.

What conical connection hardware is included?

Each EVT290S-194 Black section includes 4 conical couplers, 8 coupler pins, and 8 r-clips for compatible conical connections.
