System loading limits and installation requirements
All support brackets, trolleys, rolling beams and other suspension components
are clearly labelled with their associated safe working loads. These figures must
never be exceeded. Individual component weights are printed in this Data
Sheet. Further details of each component are provided on the instruction sheet
supplied with each item.
The versatility of the SuperRig system allows many loading permutations on the
fixed tracks. The loading graph below shows typical examples for a uniformly
distributed load, single point load per span and two point loads per span. Using
this graph the maximum distance between track supports can be then be determined by following the appropriate loading curve and the system layout planned
accordingly.
Note:
The centre of all track joints must be within 200mm of a support bracket, track
lengths must be selected to suit.
The load bearing structure must be capable of supporting the entire system
weight with maximum loads applied and distributed in line with the systems
specified layout.
It is recommended that the maximum loading information on which the system is
based is clearly displayed within the studio.
