10x10 Goal Post Truss System – EVT220S-Goleta
The EVT220S-Goleta is a portable 10x10 goal post system manufactured from 220mm square aluminum truss. Its lightweight, modular construction creates a clean and professional framework for trade show displays, branded entrances, photography backdrops, race finish lines, mobile productions, and other temporary ground-supported applications.
Built from EN AW-6082 T6 aluminum alloy, the system uses a conical connection design for efficient assembly and disassembly. The modular EVT220S components can also be reused, expanded, or reconfigured for future installations.

Modular Design and Expansion
The EVT220S-Goleta is assembled from standard EVT220S Series components, allowing the system to adapt as your production or display requirements change.
- Adjust the dimensions: Compatible straight sections may be added to create wider or taller configurations.
- Reuse the components: Individual sections can be incorporated into other EVT220S structures and displays.
- Expand your inventory: Additional truss sections, corners, base components, and connection hardware are available separately.
- Replace individual parts: Components can be serviced or replaced without purchasing an entirely new system.

Assembly and Connection System
The EVT220S-Goleta uses a conical connection system designed for efficient and repeatable assembly. Truss sections are joined using conical couplers, steel pins, and safety clips.
- Place all components on a clean, level surface before assembly.
- Inspect the truss sections and connection hardware for damage or excessive wear.
- Align the truss sections and insert the conical couplers into the main chords.
- Secure each connection using the appropriate pins and safety clips.
- Confirm that every connection is fully engaged before raising or loading the structure.
Assembly should be completed only by personnel familiar with aluminum truss systems, safe lifting practices, and the intended installation method.
Important Clamp Compatibility
The EVT220S Series uses 35mm main chord tubing. Standard clamps designed for 48mm or 50mm truss tubing will not fit correctly and must not be used.
Lights, signs, and accessories must be installed using properly rated 35mm truss clamps. Always confirm the clamp diameter, working load limit, attachment method, and intended application before installation.
Safety, Loading, and Engineering Requirements
The EVT220S-Goleta is a light-duty, ground-supported display system. The allowable configuration, loading, ballast, anchoring, and installation method depend on the specific application, site conditions, attached equipment, and environmental forces.
Loading Requirements
- Do not exceed the allowable load capacity of the truss or any connected component.
- Loads must be distributed appropriately between the main chords.
- Do not place concentrated loads directly on connection points unless the installation has been specifically reviewed and approved.
- Lights, signs, and accessories must be installed using properly rated clamps and secondary safety devices.
- Confirm that the complete system, including its bases and connections, is suitable for the intended load.
Stability, Ballast, and Outdoor Use
- Install the system only on a stable and level surface.
- Appropriate ballast, anchoring, or both may be required for the intended configuration.
- Sandbag weight bags may be used as part of a properly evaluated ballast plan.
- Banners, fabric, signs, screens, and other surfaces can create substantial lateral and wind forces.
- Outdoor installations require site-specific engineering, an appropriate ballast or anchoring plan, and continuous weather monitoring.
- The structure must not be used outdoors during unsafe weather or wind conditions.
Inspection and Component Compatibility
- Inspect every truss section, coupler, pin, safety clip, corner, and base component before each use.
- Immediately remove any bent, cracked, excessively worn, corroded, or otherwise damaged component from service.
- Confirm that all pins and safety clips are completely installed before raising or loading the system.
- Do not modify, drill, weld, grind, or otherwise alter any structural component without written engineering approval.
- Components from different manufacturers must not be combined unless dimensional compatibility, connector geometry, material specifications, structural ratings, and engineering approval have been confirmed.
Engineering notice: Purchasing this product does not approve or authorize a specific installation. A qualified professional should evaluate the complete structure, loading plan, attachment methods, ballast, anchoring, environmental conditions, and intended use.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the EVT220S-Goleta used for?
The EVT220S-Goleta is intended for temporary ground-supported applications such as trade show entrances, photography backdrops, branded displays, finish lines, mobile productions, and lightweight event installations.
Can the system be made wider or taller?
Yes. The modular EVT220S design allows compatible straight sections to be added or exchanged. Any modified configuration should be reviewed for loading, stability, ballast, and overall structural suitability.
What size clamps does the EVT220S Series require?
The main chords have a 35mm outside diameter. Accessories must be mounted using properly rated 35mm clamps. Standard 48mm or 50mm truss clamps will not fit correctly.
Can EVT220S components be mixed with another manufacturer’s truss?
Components should not be mixed solely because they appear similar or use a conical connection. Connector geometry, dimensions, alloy specifications, structural ratings, and engineering compatibility must all be verified before combining components from different manufacturers.
Can the EVT220S-Goleta be used outdoors?
Outdoor use requires site-specific engineering, proper anchoring or ballast, evaluation of all attached surfaces, and continuous weather monitoring. The structure must not be used during unsafe wind or weather conditions.
