Load, unload, or move trusses with the necessary personnel to assure that the trusses are
not dragged or dropped; this may damage the ends and the structure or result in other
unseen damage.

Load data
- Are only valid for static loads and spans with two supporting points (one at each end);
- Are to be considered for indoor use only. If dynamic loads or more supporting points
are applied contact a structural engineer or Arcofab;
- Are valid when the truss is used with the diagonals oriented vertically
(see attached figures in page G-3);
- Are valid when the end plates are installed vertically for the bolted trusses
(see figure in page G-3 – note 1);
- Are valid when the pins are installed horizontally for the spigoted trusses
(see figure in page G-3 – note 2);
- Take into consideration the self-weight of the trusses and indicate how much additional
weight may be safely added;
- Deflexions are theoretical (based on the rigidity of the truss when full loaded). Actual
deflexion may be slightly higher because of possible movement between truss sections
due to attachment tolerance;
- When corner blocks are used, loading capacity must be reduce by 50% when corners
are loaded on two adjacent faces.

HANDLING, ASSEMBLY, AND USE OF TRUSSES
Inspection
Arcofab trusses are engineered and built to provide many years of reliable service provided
that they are used within the recommended loading parameters and handled properly.
Nuts, bolts, and washers should be replaced periodically as regular use degrades bolt
threads. Never over-torque nuts and bolts beyond manufacturer specifications and always
use Grade 8 nuts, bolts, and washers.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
Inspection
A visual inspection of each section is required before every use. Furthermore, a complete
inspection shall be performed at least once a year (or more often depending on the
intensity and frequency of use). Every piece shall be carefully inspected by a competent
person in order to guarantee the strength and safety. Documentation on inspection
shall be registered and kept on file. Every inspected piece shall be clearly marked and
easy to identify.
When truss sections show damage that might affect the safety aspect, it is mandatory to
discard and mark them clearly so they won’t be put back into service. Damaged sections
can be submitted to Arcofab for evaluation and repair if possible. Should you have any
doubt, please contact Arcofab technical department.
Discard criteria
w w w. a rc o f a b. c o m
Any truss showing significant visible damage or suspected of containing a damaged
element (visible or not) shall be removed from service and marked accordingly.
General
All truss presenting the following damage must be removed from service:
s absence of any identification showing manufacturer, truss type and date of production.
s PERMANENT PLASTIC DISTORTION BY TWISTING BENDING TORSION OR ANY OTHER DEFORMATION
different of the original form.
s 7ELDS THAT SHOW CRACK OR DISCONTINUITY
s 2EDUCTION OF WELDED AREA DUE TO WEAR OR TEAR BY MORE THAT
s !NY HOLES OTHER THAN THOSE OF THE ORIGINAL DESIGN
s Excessive corrosion of the material reducing the tube cross section area by more than 10.
