Truss Outrigger Legs

About the Truss Outrigger Legs

Truss Outrigger Legs are ground-support stabilisers designed to prevent freestanding truss towers and goal-post configurations from tipping under suspended load. By extending horizontally from the base of a truss tower, outrigger legs dramatically increase the effective footprint of the structure, distributing weight across a wider contact area and improving resistance to lateral forces caused by wind, cable tension, or off-centre loads.

Performance & Application

Outrigger legs are a fundamental component of any ground-supported truss build. They are used extensively across outdoor festival stages, touring concert rigs, corporate event structures, and large-format LED wall installations where base plates alone are insufficient to ensure safe stability. Most configurations pair outrigger legs with ballast (typically shot bags or water weights) placed at the extremities to further anchor the structure. Levelling feet or adjustable pads accommodate uneven ground surfaces common on outdoor sites. Always consult a qualified rigger or structural engineer when specifying outrigger configurations for heavy suspended loads, and ensure all ground-support builds comply with relevant Australian Standards and Work Health & Safety requirements.
