How to measure it
Submit a fixture plot with model, quantity, verified weight and position, plus cable, distribution and accessory weights. The design response depends on where loads occur along each span—not only the total kilograms.

Lighting Grid Truss Malaysia.
Linear, goalpost or rectangular truss grids configured for event fixtures, cabling and controlled lighting positions.
What this structure is
Define the complete outcome first.
A lighting grid creates controlled fixture positions above, in front of or behind the performance area. It may be a single span, goalpost, rectangular ground-support grid or flown mother grid depending on the venue and production design.
Linear, goalpost or rectangular truss grids configured for event fixtures, cabling and controlled lighting positions. It may be assembled from box, rectangular, triangular, ladder or another compatible profile according to the final structural concept; those profiles are not interchangeable by appearance.
