EVT290S-C700 22.96-Foot Truss Circle.
Eight 45-Degree Arcs for Full Circles, Curved Structures, and Custom Builds.
The EVT290S-C700 is a complete 7.0 m / 22.96 ft circular aluminum truss system built from eight matching 45-degree curved arc sections. Assemble all eight arcs into a 360-degree circle with a 6.42 m / 21.06 ft inside opening, or use the individual curved sections with compatible EVT290S / F34 components for partial circles, arches, rounded exhibit structures, scenic forms, and other custom truss builds. The complete structure, as well as every custom arc configuration, requires a project-specific support, rigging, loading, and engineering review.
Product Facts
Product Overview
Eight Matching Arcs Create One Complete 7-Meter Circle.
The EVT290S-C700 combines eight matching 45-degree curved truss arcs into a complete 7.0 m / 22.96 ft circular truss assembly. When all eight sections are joined, the ring provides a 6.42 m / 21.06 ft inside opening for a broad stage zone, convention exhibit, scenic composition, studio environment, lighting system, or project-specific technical installation. The same curved arc geometry also lets designers specify portions of the circle for custom structures. Whether the project uses one arc, a partial curve, or the complete ring, evaluate the resulting assembly as its own supported and loaded truss structure.
Arc Configurations
Build the Full Ring—or Use the Arcs for Custom Curved Truss Geometry.
The C700 is supplied as eight matching 45-degree arcs that form a complete circle. Those arcs can also be specified as curved components in custom EVT290S / F34 truss structures, subject to proper connection, support, loading, and engineering review. The number of arcs determines the total curve: one arc provides 45 degrees, two provide 90 degrees, four form a 180-degree half circle, and all eight form the full 360-degree ring.
Do not apply completed-circle assumptions to a partial circle, arch, or custom assembly. Support locations, connections, fixtures, attachments, loads, and engineering requirements must be determined for the exact configuration being built.
What the Arcs Can Build
From Full Truss Rings to Arches, Curves, and Custom Scenic Structures.
The modular 45-degree arcs allow a single C700 geometry to serve full-circle and partial-curve projects. Use the complete ring where a continuous circular perimeter is required, or plan selected arcs into compatible truss structures when the design calls for a gradual turn, an open arch, a rounded boundary, or a radial form. Any use with lighting, video-related equipment, signage, graphics, scenic material, cable paths, or other attachments must be evaluated within the complete approved structure.
Included Components
A Complete Circle Package of Eight Matching 45-Degree Arcs.
The EVT290S-C700 complete circle package contains eight matching 45-degree curved arc sections. The complete ring requires connection hardware at each arc joint. The package is documented with thirty-two conical couplers, sixty-four tapered pins, and sixty-four R-clips for the full eight-arc assembly. Confirm the current package contents, the connection hardware condition, and all required project hardware before assembly.
Every active connection must be fully seated, pinned, and retained. If arcs are configured differently than the complete circle, confirm the correct hardware, component orientation, and connection plan for that exact assembly.

System Compatibility
Use the C700 Arcs Within Compatible 290 mm Square Truss Systems.
The C700 arcs use 290 mm square truss geometry, 50 mm main chords, and a conical connection system. This permits integration with compatible EVT290S, F34, and matching 290 mm square conical truss components when receiver spacing, coupler dimensions, chord geometry, component orientation, and technical documentation all match. Integrating an arc with straight truss or another geometry changes the completed structure and must be reviewed for its actual supports, loading, and engineering requirements.
Verify physical interfaces, manufacturer documentation, hardware requirements, and engineering suitability before combining components or hanging loads from any custom arc assembly.
Assembly Overview
Lay Out the Intended Curve, Verify Every Joint, Then Lift Under an Approved Plan.
The complete C700 circle weighs 296 lb / 134.3 kg and contains eight arc-to-arc joints. Build the intended assembly on a clean, level surface using trained personnel and current manufacturer instructions. For a full circle, place all eight arcs in final sequence before installing connection hardware. For a partial circle or custom structure, confirm the exact component order, orientation, support plan, and required end conditions before assembly. Never force a joint into alignment.
Safety and Engineering
Full Circles, Half Circles, and Arches Each Require Their Own Load Review.
A complete 7.0 m circle, a 180-degree arch, a 90-degree curve, and a custom straight-and-curved assembly do not behave as the same structure. Support-point quantity, support locations, end conditions, fixture positions, hardware condition, applied loads, dynamic forces, lateral restraint, and environmental exposure determine the resulting load case. Use current manufacturer documentation for the exact assembly and obtain qualified rigging and engineering review for overhead, load-bearing, outdoor, public-facing, or otherwise regulated structures.
Product Questions
EVT290S-C700 Questions.
How many arcs make the EVT290S-C700 circle?
The complete C700 circle uses eight matching 45-degree curved arc sections. Together they form a 360-degree circle with a 7.0 m / 22.96 ft outer diameter.
Can the individual arcs be used in a custom structure?
Yes. The 45-degree arcs can be specified with compatible EVT290S / F34-format components to build partial circles, arches, curved frames, rounded perimeters, and other custom truss structures. The exact finished configuration requires its own support, load, and engineering review.
What is included with the complete circle?
The complete C700 package includes eight matching 45-degree arcs and documented connection hardware totaling thirty-two conical couplers, sixty-four tapered pins, and sixty-four R-clips. Confirm current package contents before assembly.
Can a partial circle or arch be suspended?
A partial circle, arch, or custom arc structure must be evaluated independently from the complete circle. Use qualified rigging and engineering review for the exact components, supports, attachment locations, hardware, and applied loads involved.
