Straight Section Overview

2.0 m F34 Square Truss for Entertainment Truss Systems.

The EVT290S-200 Black is a standard 2.0 m straight member for compatible 290 mm square entertainment-truss systems. It is selected when a project needs a repeatable standard module for longer lighting grids, stage structures, theater systems, concert and touring rigs, exhibit frames, and other planned truss runs.

6.56 ft Straight Section
Use this section where the drawing calls for a standard 2.0 m member between compatible truss connection points.
Repeatable System Module
The 2.0 m length is a core repeatable module for building longer runs with compatible straight sections, corners, bases, and connection hardware.
Matte Black Finish
The matte-black powder coat supports installations where the truss should remain visually subdued around lighting, scenic elements, screens, cameras, and stage work.

Length Selection

Why Choose a 6.56 ft Straight Truss Section?

A 2.0 m section is a common standard module for entertainment-truss systems. It is useful when a project drawing calls for repeatable 2.0 m increments in a lighting grid, stage frame, theater system, touring rig, exhibit structure, or other compatible truss layout.

Add a 2.0 m Run
Use the 6.56 ft section when the drawing calls for a 2.0 m addition to a lighting grid, stage frame, theater structure, exhibit display, perimeter, or support structure.
Plan Around the Drawing
Select the straight-section length called for in the project drawing, then confirm corners, bases, supports, accessories, and connection hardware for the complete build.
Combine System Components
Pair this member with compatible EVT290S straight sections, corners, base plates, and other components required for the planned structure.

Matte Black Finish

Built to Support the Scene—Not Compete with It.

The EVT290S-200 Black uses a matte-black powder-coated finish for installations where entertainment 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 into darker production, presentation, studio, theater, and exhibit environments.

Stage and Live Production
Use matte black where lighting grids, goalposts, scenic frames, and support structures should remain less conspicuous to an audience or camera under controlled stage lighting.
Theater and Venue Systems
A low-reflective black finish can help reduce the visual prominence of truss in theaters, venues, houses of worship, concert halls, and camera-facing production spaces.
Studio and Broadcast
Use matte black in camera-facing studio, livestream, broadcast, and virtual-production environments where the truss should remain visually restrained.
Exhibits and Branded Spaces
Choose matte black for a restrained architectural look when lighting, graphics, video walls, products, or scenic elements should carry the viewer's attention.

Entertainment Truss Infrastructure

A Core Module for Lighting, Stage, and Production Systems.

The EVT290S-200 Black is one straight member within a project-specific entertainment-truss system. It can be combined with compatible straight sections, corners, base plates, clamps, rigging hardware, and other accessories to create the geometry required by the project drawing. The individual section does not independently approve a completed layout, span, loading condition, suspension method, or support arrangement.

Lighting Truss Systems
Use within planned lighting grids, fixture-support structures, overhead production layouts, and compatible truss runs where a standard 2.0 m member is required.
Stage Truss Systems
Use within planned stage frames, goalposts, scenic support structures, presentation systems, and production architecture built from compatible components.
Concert and Touring Truss
Use as part of repeatable touring inventory for compatible stage, lighting, video, and scenic structures, subject to the requirements of each completed configuration.
Theater and Venue Truss
Use within planned theater, venue, studio, or house-of-worship systems where the finish, profile, connection type, and required 2.0 m length match the project design.

Applications

A 2.0 m Member for Entertainment, Lighting, and Stage Systems.

Use the EVT290S-200 Black wherever a compatible entertainment-truss build calls for a 2.0 m / 6.56 ft section. The completed structure determines the required supports, rigging method, loads, and accessories.

Lighting Grids
Add a standard 2.0 m section to a planned lighting grid or perimeter built from compatible 290 mm square-truss components.
Stage Structures
Use within planned scenic frames, goalposts, presentation structures, stage architecture, and production-support layouts where the drawing calls for this length.
Theater and Venue Systems
Use in planned theater, concert, venue, and house-of-worship truss configurations for approved lighting, scenic, display, video, and production applications.
Exhibits and Displays
Build exhibit display frameworks, overhead branding, entryways, graphic-support frames, product display areas, and integrated lighting structures around the required truss run.

Series Construction

290 mm Square Truss with Conical Coupler Connections.

The EVT290S-200 Black carries the core construction of the EVT290S series in a 2.0 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-200 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, 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-200 Black is intended for compatible EVT290S, F34, and matching 290 mm square entertainment-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-200 Black fits within a broader 290 mm entertainment-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, base plates, and connection hardware to complete the required truss layout.
1.96 in / 50 mm Clamps
Use compatible clamps for approved lighting, video, scenic, 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, and related support components according to the completed structure and its 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

Load-Span Reference for Completed Truss Runs.

All truss loading calculations are based on a completed compatible 290 mm square-truss run supported or suspended at both ends: static loading only; loads applied at approved truss panel points; truss self-weight included in the listed capacities; spans may consist of different truss lengths; and bending-moment and shear interaction at truss connections is considered. Values are limited by strength and reduced per ANSI E1.21.

Load-Span Assumptions and Project Review

Table assumptions: The reference evaluates unbraced truss configured as a simply supported beam. The primary analyzed spans were 2 m, 4 m, 6 m, 8 m, 10 m, and 12 m; intervening published values are interpolated. If CPL, TPL, or QPL loading occurs at a truss connection, a minimum of two chords is assumed to support the vertical load.

Not included: Shock loads, dynamic loads, and resultant horizontal rigging forces, including forces from bridles or baskets. UDL applies only when the load is evenly distributed across the entire span. Published load cases are alternatives and are not additive.

Licensed structural-engineer review is required for every truss system.These values are general planning reference only and do not approve or rate an individual straight section, a completed lighting plot, a ground-support structure, a goal post, a tower, a start/finish arch, a suspended configuration, an outdoor installation, a mixed-component build, or any other assembled truss system. Confirm the complete configuration, supports, connections, span, applied loads, attachment points, rigging, ballast or anchorage, environmental conditions, and applicable code requirements with a licensed structural engineer before use.

Current documentation: Product specifications, included hardware, compatibility information, and availability are subject to change. Verify current product drawings, manufacturer instructions, connection hardware, and applicable engineering information before ordering, assembling, or using this product.

System Responsibility

Capacity Comes from the Completed Configuration.

This 6.56 ft / 2.0 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, lighting, video, scenic equipment, and environmental exposure. Use applicable manufacturer load tables and engineering information for the entertainment-truss 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, sling, shackle, safety cable, 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 lighting, video, scenic, camera, or safety planning.
Use trained personnel and obtain the project review required for suspended, public-facing, outdoor, load-bearing, theatrical, concert, touring, or otherwise regulated entertainment-truss systems.
