Questions about truss F23
How much does the F23 carry at my span?
That is in the load table above and in the data sheet: for spans of 2 to 14 m, the permitted uniformly distributed load, the centre point load and the third-point load, each with deflection. For your specific construction with load points, suspension or towers, we prepare structural calculations on request.
Does the F23 fit trusses from other makers?
The F23 is joined with a conical euro connection. According to the BÜTEC catalogue, this connection is compatible with various systems from other manufacturers; bolted connections are also possible. Tell us the maker and type of your stock and we will check the fit.
Is the F23 available in special lengths or in colour?
Yes. Our own certified aluminium welding department makes special lengths and shapes; powder coating is available in RAL colours. Circles are available from 2 to 12 m.
