The 16 x 16 middle duty spigoted truss provides a compact, truck-pack friendly option for temporary structures where increased load capacity and efficient transport are important. This truss balances strength and size, delivering a clear performance step up from light duty 12 x 12 sections while requiring significantly less storage space than medium duty 20.5 x 20.5 truss.
