Folding truss is a specialist production system. Rental pricing depends more on the complete grid, compatible corners, transport, lifting and crew than the folded section alone.

Safety boundary
Website dimensions are not load approval.
Allowable loads depend on the exact manufacturer and model, span, orientation, support condition, load position, connectors and complete structural arrangement. Multi-span grids, cantilevers, towers, roofs and outdoor structures require project-specific checking.
Prolyte guidance also calls for competent inspection after erection and repeated inspection while longer installations remain in service.
