8、g equipment for performance, broadcast and similar applications. There are no specific British Standards that cover the design, manufacture and use of aluminium or steel trusses in the entertainment industry. It should be noted that other British Standards may be relevant, depending on the applicati

9、on and intended use. In an attempt to improve safety and standards in the entertainment industry, the Entertainment Services and Technology Association (ESTA) of New York, USA, convened a series of meetings to prepare a draft standard for the American National Standards Institute. The preparation of

10、 the draft standard was entrusted to the Truss Team working as part of the Rigging Work Group for the Technical Standards Committee (TSC) of ESTA. The Truss Team generally consisted of manufacturers and their structural engineering advisors. This British Standard is based on the American draft stand

11、ard. It has been assumed in the drafting of this British Standard that execution of its design provisions is entrusted to appropriately qualified and experienced people, and that the fabrication is carried out by qualified and suitably experienced people and organizations. This British Standard spec

12、ifies a coordinated set of requirements that can also be a guide to government and other regulatory bodies and municipal authorities responsible for guarding and inspection of the equipment falling within its scope. The requirements concerning accident prevention are given both as mandatory and advi

13、sory provisions; compliance with both types may be required by employers of their employees. Safety codes and standards are intended to enhance public safety. Revisions result from committee consideration of factors such as technology advances, new data, and changing environmental and industry needs

14、. Revisions do not imply that previous editions were not adequate. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunit

15、y from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages i and ii, pages 1 to 5 and a back cover.

BSI 07-2000 1 BS 7905-2:2000 | | | 1 Scope This British Standard covers design and manufacture of aluminium and steel trusses, towers and associated structural components such as tower head blocks, sleeve blocks, bases, and corner blocks in the entertainment industry. This B

17、ritish Standard covers truss beams and two dimensional ladder beams but does not cover individual, separate rigging hardware (half couplers, shackles, wire ropes, etc.). This British Standard covers a variety of uses that are confined to the entertainment industry and applies to a range of structure

18、s subjected to normal atmospheric conditions. This British Standard does not cover aerospace aluminium alloys, detailed design of castings, curved shell structures or structures subjected to severe thermal or chemical conditions. This British Standard is not intended to be used for the design of con

19、tainment vessels, airborne structures, or vessels, or for any application covered by another standard. Guidance on use of the equipment covered by this British Standard is given in BS 7906-2. Wherever “truss” is referred to in this British Standard, it equally applies to “tower” and vice versa. “Tru

20、ss” also applies to associated structural components. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions that, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this British Standard.

37、l trusses and towers shall be designed in accordance with this clause. 4.2 Design Aluminium trusses shall be designed in accordance with BS 8118. Steel trusses shall be designed in accordance with BS 5950. The design of either aluminium and steel trusses shall also conform to any other relevant stan

38、dard for the intended conditions of use. Welds shall be designed and detailed in accordance with the appropriate material standard (i.e. BS 8118 or BS 5950). Fasteners and other components of materials other than aluminium and steel shall be designed in accordance with standards relevant to the mate

39、rial. Design loading, including wind, shall be determined in accordance with BS 6399. All conditions of use considered in design shall be explicitly outlined in the engineering documentation provided by the manufacturer. Strength shall be established using design methods and/or by physical testing.

40、If testing is used to determine the strength of an element or structure, the test procedures shall conform to the appropriate material standard (i.e. BS 8118 or BS 5950). Truss structures shall conform to the following: Design of truss structures for single use: these structures shall be designed in

41、 accordance with either BS 8118 or BS 5950 as appropriate. Design of truss modules for repetitive use: the design strength determined in accordance with BS 8118 or BS 5950 shall be reduced by multiplying the strength by a factor of 0.85. The reduced design strength shall be greater than or equal to

42、the allowable load for intended loading conditions. Steel connectors for joining pieces of trussing together shall be either nut and bolt fasteners of minimum strength grade 8.8 throughout, or other fasteners of appropriate strength and design, that require at least two deliberate manual actions to

43、release (e.g. pin and clip). Quarter turn fasteners or other types of connector that require only a single action shall not be used. 4.3 Analysis 4.3.1 Analysis of the truss or tower structures for the intended load conditions shall be performed by calculation, modelling, physical testing, or a comb

44、ination of these methods. 4.3.2 Analysis shall consider the worst combination, application, and configuration of loads and effects possible within the guidelines for use. 4.3.3 Consideration shall be given to overall structural stability and bracing requirements for all applications within the guide

45、lines for use. 4.3.4 Consideration shall be given to the effects of eccentricities in element and module connections. 4.3.5 Deflections shall be calculated for the load conditions provided in the user information.4 BSI 07-2000 BS 7905-2:2000 | 4.4 Engineering documentation Engineering drawings of th

46、e truss or tower designs shall be developed and maintained by the manufacturer. Engineering drawings shall include dimensions, components, subassemblies, material types, fastener types, and specifications, weld sizes and types, and welding consumables. Engineering calculations, design notes and/or t

47、est results shall be developed and maintained to demonstrate conformity to this standard for the intended load conditions and uses. If a statement about design factor (commonly known as the “factor of safety”) is included in the information for use, then the manufacturer shall clearly state to what

48、condition the design factor refers. NOTE The design factor is usually defined as the ratio of the load required to cause failure to the allowable load on the structure or element. 5 Manufacture 5.1 General A level of quality in accordance with acceptable standard shall be maintained throughout the m

49、anufacturing process. Each truss shall have a mark so that it is traceable to the manufacturer if a defect occurs. 5.2 Materials Aluminium alloy shall conform to BS EN 754 and BS EN 755. Extruded aluminium alloy tubes shall be drift tested in accordance with BS 1139-1.2 to reduce the possibility of splitting. Steelwork shall conform to BS 4 and/or BS 10210-2, BS EN 10056-1 and BS EN 10067, ensuring component dimensions are within set limits and tolerances. 5.3 Welding Welders employed to manufacture aluminium truss or who are involved
