Questions about truss F33

How much does the F33 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. The F33 HD has its own data sheet. For your specific construction with load points, suspension or towers, we prepare structural calculations on request.

Does the F33 fit trusses from other makers?

The F33 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.

When do I need the F33 HD?

The F33 HD has 48 × 3 mm chord tubes instead of 50 × 2 mm and is designed for higher loads. Outer size and bracing are the same as the F33. Which version you need shows when you compare both data sheets at your span – or ask us.

Can the F33 take a power track?

Yes. On request, BÜTEC makes the F33 with a profile that takes a power track – for lighting design in stand building and shop fitting. Tell us in your enquiry which track system you want to use.
