A pre-rig Truss is a Truss that comes already rigged together and ready to use ?? therefore, it cannot be flat packed, folded away or taken apart. Often used in theaters and outdoor concert venues, the pre-rig Truss is the principal structure for stage lighting fixtures to be secured to. They are incredibly Strong structures, able to comfortably bear the weight of all kinds of lighting fixtures, which can be very heavy.
The pre-rig Truss is capable of bearing incredibly heavy loads, although users should be aware that the longer the span of the pre-rig Truss, the less load bearing ability it actually has, as more stress is applied to longer spans.
Polished aluminum tubing is the material of choice used in a pre-rig Truss, as this metal is both affordable and lightweight, while it is also very Strong. The diagonal braces are also typically made from aluminum, and it is these braces that give the pre-rig Truss its Strong load bearing ability.
Various different lengths and sizes are available when buying a pre-rig Truss, so buyers can choose a Truss that is best suited for their needs. Two of the most common sizes of pre-rig Truss are the 15? x 23.5? pre-rig Truss, and the 30? x 26? pre-rig Truss, although many other sizes are available too.
One disadvantage of the pre-rig Truss is that it is unable to fold up, or be packed away very easily, as it is a solid, pre-made structure, and so transportation of this equipment isn??t easy. Therefore, these trusses are often preferred for permanent installations.
