4 Exhibition Exhibition The use of lightweight and compact truss systems with a relative high load capacity are required in the exhibition industry. More and more the demands for truss systems are not only founded on the use of hanging grids but next to the constructive character the truss systems have a decorative purpose. Due to the fact that aluminium has a strong but also a decorative look and the broad range of truss possibilities by its modularity, give the exhibition industry the perfect tool. Time is also a very important issue, Eurotruss understands this. The modularity and fast connection system guarantees fast and safe mounting which saves time and money. Due to this efficiency and Eurotruss its reliable image has resulted in a leading position in the exhibition industry. 6 Introduction Pre Rig Truss Heavy Truss HD/ Truss Deco Truss Series

6 Eurotruss standard roof range: All our roof systems from the 32 square meters to the 400 square meters are available with P.A. Wings. These constructions are available with static reports and are approved for use by the German legal authorities. Eurotruss fulfilled the need for rapid set up times and versatility of design by developing their roof system as a follow on from the ground support systems and used a large majority of standard components. Enabling customers to build an ever increasingly adaptable system to cut down unnecessary investment in special pieces to do one job. This concept drastically reduces costly investment when the produced can multi task giving a fast return of revenue invested. 8 Introduction Pre Rig Truss Heavy Truss HD/ Truss Deco Truss Series

7 Pre Rigging The Pre Rig Truss is capable of adapting high loads on long free spans. The dimensions, used material and strong connection makes the Pre Rig Truss the strongest truss in the line of aluminum truss systems. Eurotruss developed a high loadable Pre Rig Truss and constructed it in such a way that an optimum has been realized to get the maximum result. Eurotruss proofs again that it offers the optimal product for any purpose required. Pre Rigging An improved heavy duty truss to be used as a main grid or structure in order to fly smaller truss systems and circles or create large spans with high load bearing capacity. Very often the pre rigging is not visual as it disappears under the roof and ceilings. In those cases that the halls or the ceilings of buildings can not be used to fix many hanging points for several truss rigs, the Pre Rig Truss is being used as a second ceiling on where several rigs of smaller truss systems or circles etc can be flown.

All Eurotruss series can be constructed in one or two levels (up and or down) using standard fixed corners or variable universal-cornerblocks (also called magic corners). With the development of some accessories and adapters all kind of different constructions are possible. With the use of standard truss elements the possibilities are enormous. From small stands up to medium ground supports and even big roof constructions can be build in fast, easy and safe way.

10 System Overview Users-Matrix of the Eurotruss Truss System WHICH TRUSS FOR WHICH PURPOSE? This matrix helps you to find the ideal truss for your requirements. Naturally not all individual cases could be listed as the truss itself can be used in many ways. It is just a helpful tool to show you if that particular truss is suitable for your application. So, +++ at 34 in Roofs does not mean that ST is less suitable for roofs. In many cases 34 is in many cases the basic truss of which many roofs are being made. TYPICAL USAGE: TT: Up to 40 meters of span with impressive load bearing capacity. The ultimate solution for Pre Rig. 4X: The big brother of the 3X with an even higher loading capacity. XT: More than 24 meters of span required, also good loading and suitability as Pre Rig. XT will be your choice. HD3X: Upgrade of the 3x by using a 3mm wall thickness which results in a higher load bearing capacity and durability. ST: ST made for big jobs with its 50cm square still an acceptable size. Impressive result. FT: The truss for a tour! High loading capacity and a minimum of space required. 3X: With the 32 (ladderbeam), 33 (triangular) and 34 (square) this system is far out the most used and allround truss available. Up to middle long spans the solution for exhibition stands and small roofs. XD: For professional installers and stand builders this relative small truss, developed for indoor use, has an enormous loading capacity. 25: A triangle truss which visual impact provides a perfect frame to enhance product image without detracting from its loadability and rigidity. HD4X: Upgrade of the 4x by using a 3mm wall thickness which results in a higher load bearing capacity and durability. 22: A new truss system ideal for decorative and exhibition purposes. Good for making small frames, relative light and looks fine. 12 Introduction Pre Rig Truss Heavy Truss HD/ Truss Deco Truss Series
