SC Pro TT Triangle Trussing

SC Pro TT Triangle Trussing combines a triangular format with precision-engineered joints, giving planners a neat solution when a compact yet load-capable display truss is required. The range answers the needs of touring crews, shop-fit teams and production houses looking for tidy connections, predictable load data and a clean industrial finish.

Layout and Geometry

The triangular layout distributes force through three main chords, keeping torsion low and maintaining rigidity over longer spans. Because each chord is equal, any face may be presented outwards, helping designers hide cables or face branding whichever way the stand dictates. Tube diameters, brace angles and connector placement follow a single manufacturing standard, so mixing lengths and corner units is straightforward.

Tube Material and Finish

• High tensile alloy with traceable batch numbers
• Uniform wall thickness for balanced strength-to-weight ratio
• Non-reflective surface, suited to television lighting and retail spotlights

The finish resists scratching during load-ins and keeps visual impact low under show lighting. Routine wipe-downs with mild detergent normally suffice; aggressive solvents are unnecessary and discouraged.

Jointing Method

A conical coupler system is supplied as standard across the SC Pro TT catalogue. Tapered inserts align the pieces, while steel pins lock the joint. No complex tooling is needed; a soft-faced hammer and safety clips handle most assemblies. This approach limits play at the connection, keeping sight-lines sharp when the framework is left exposed as part of a display truss feature wall.

Corner Pieces and Special Sections

Besides straight lengths, the series offers 2-way, 3-way and box corners. Odd-angle elements are stocked in popular theatre pitches, and custom degrees are available by quotation. Ladder drops, sleeve blocks and top plates integrate without re-machining, allowing a single framework to support lighting bars one week and product shelving the next.

Common Build Patterns

Although every project varies, certain layouts appear frequently:

1. Goal-post frame for small stage backs or digital signage
2. Gridded ceiling grids in conference suites
3. Perimeter frames surrounding projection screens
4. Three-dimensional cubes doubling as hanging art pieces

Because each element arrives with consistent spigot alignment, on-site alterations rarely call for cutting or welding. Changes can usually be handled by swapping a length or inserting an extra corner unit.

Sector Use

SC Pro TT Triangle Trussing appears in:

• Live music venues and fly-packs
• TV studios where reflections must be controlled
• Branded point-of-sale frames in flagship stores
• Pop-up installations at product launches
• Hybrid conference spaces needing frequent re-builds

In each case the triangular profile keeps cabling routes tidy and offers multiple clamp points without additional outriggers.

Handling and Storage

Individual lengths remain manageable by one or two crew members, depending on size. Protective corners on flight cases help avoid denting the chord ends; however, most day-to-day knocks are absorbed by the alloy's inherent resilience. When stacking, align connectors at the same end to avoid rubbing the couplers against the main tubes.

Maintenance Routine

A light inspection schedule keeps things safe:

• Visual check after every de-rig for distortion or ovalised tube
• Monthly torque test of bolts and pins in frequently used junctions
• Annual non-destructive testing if the rig stays assembled long-term

Planning Considerations

Before placing an order, specifiers normally review:

• Total suspended mass including rigging hardware
• Span lengths in relation to approved load figures
• U-values for indoor fire regulation where fabrics attach
• Travel constraints; longest piece must clear venue doors and lift cars

Stage Concepts staff can supply drawing support and advise on mixed-length packs that optimise vehicle space while still achieving the required footprint on site.
