Serious Light Duty

Serious Light Duty

Serious Light Duty Truss has the same overall dimensions as Generic Light Duty Truss, but offers even greater load carrying capacities and spans than the original. The use of thicker chords and diagonals increases the bending and shear strength of the truss which is offered with Fork End connectors as standard.

Load Terms

All loads are given in Kilograms
Allowance has been made for self-weight of truss
Allowance has been made for frequent use factor of 85% according to prEN17115
The payload of the truss has been calculated as a permanent action. Should it be necessary to consider the payload as a variable action, the tabulated figures should be reduced to 90% of the given values.
