Series Construction

290 mm Square Truss with Conical Coupler Connections.

The EVT290S-250 carries the core construction of the EVT290S series in a 2.5 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.

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-250.

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 booth or exhibit 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-250 is intended for compatible EVT290S, F34, and matching 290 mm square truss systems using conical connections. Similar appearance alone does not establish compatibility. Confirm 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 lighting, monitor, and graphics-panel attachment.
Mixed Components
When components come from different sources, confirm physical fit and applicable engineering information before using them together.

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 booth or exhibit 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 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.

Allowable loading reference, 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 booth structure, a hanging-sign installation, a ground-support structure, a suspended configuration, 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, venue 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 8.20 ft / 2.5 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, graphics panels, monitors, lighting, and venue or show-site requirements.

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.
For overhead-hanging booth signage, multi-story exhibit structures, or other regulated installations, confirm general service contractor, venue, and required engineering review before use.
