Event truss setup guide

Truss rental for projection mapping.

Projector, masking and scenic support structures coordinated around throw distance, image geometry, sightlines, weather and calibration access.

Technical production uses

The production brief determines the structure.

Projector, masking and scenic support structures coordinated around throw distance, image geometry, sightlines, weather and calibration access.

For projection mapping, the first decision is not “how many truss pieces?” It is what the structure must achieve, what it supports, where it sits and which venue conditions shape the build.

What to measure

Provide exact equipment makes, models, dimensions, verified weights and positions, plus the required clear opening, trim height, service access, cable routes and support method.

Useful size references for this use case include Single-projector tower, Paired projection positions, 6-12 m facade coverage zone, Custom multi-projector alignment.

Who to coordinate

The responsible technical suppliers must agree interfaces and load information. A truss quotation should state where the structure scope ends and screen, lighting, sound, scenic, power or platform responsibility begins.

The event brief should cover building projection, stage mapping, immersive rooms before equipment is reserved.

Where it is used

Six common projection mapping applications.

01

Building projection

Share the required dimensions and attached equipment so the appropriate support method can be reviewed.

02

Stage mapping

Share the required dimensions and attached equipment so the appropriate support method can be reviewed.

03

Immersive rooms

Share the required dimensions and attached equipment so the appropriate support method can be reviewed.

04

Product reveals

Why the quote moves

  • Overall width, height and grid depth
  • Truss model and support method
  • Equipment weights and load positions
  • Bases, towers, ballast and hoists
  • Venue access and floor protection
  • Transport, crew and rental duration
  • Outdoor assessment and documentation

When not to use it

Truss is useful, but not automatic.

Consider a simpler alternative

Truss cannot solve inadequate projector output, throw distance or unsuitable content geometry. The projection specialist must confirm lenses, alignment and image coverage.

Frequently asked questions

Projection Mapping truss FAQ.

What truss setup is suitable for projection mapping?

The right configuration follows the stage, lighting, LED, branding and venue plan. Common options on this page include Truss Tower & Totem, Goalpost Truss Structure, Ground-Support Truss System, Stage Backdrop Truss.

How much is truss rental for projection mapping?

Use RM 2,000-RM 12,000+ as an early Malaysia setup range only. The final quote depends on size, equipment loads, support method, transport, crew, venue access and event schedule.

How early should the truss be booked?

Share the brief as soon as the venue and event date are confirmed. Large, outdoor, engineered or outstation structures need more setup time than a compact indoor goalpost.

Is setup and dismantling included?

Both can be included. Confirm the crew call, permitted loading time, handover inspection, event hours and collection window in the written quotation.
