Booth Standards 7. Suspended Structure Applicable

  • Application No.10
  • DeadlineSeptember 06
A suspended structure is a building frame used to suspend decorations from the ceiling of exhibit booth. Exhibitors, who wish to set up suspended structures, are required to submit Application for Suspended Structure <No.10> together with a statement of total weight, top and elevated view drawing to Makuhari Messe by Friday, September 6. If the preparation of drawings misses the deadline, the exhibitor should submit <No.10> alone by Friday, September 6 to let Makuhari Messe know that the booth will have a suspended structure.

Eligible Booths

Exhibitors with at least 20 booths (block booths) and Premium Partners with a participation space of at least 180m2 are allowed to use the suspension configuration.

Width Restriction

The width of suspended structure is limited to a perpendicular line from the interior edge of the booth. However, even within this restriction, the exhibitor might be requested to change the location of a suspended structure depending on the proximity and location of water discharge guns for firefighting purpose.

Suspension Base Restriction

As a rule, suspension should be done on gusset plates. If the use of other hanging place (beams, etc.), please contact Makuhari Messe by the beginning of August. Depending on the weight, construction plan might be required to change.

Weight Restriction

The weight limit of gusset plates for a single suspended structure is 450kg. Exhibitors are required to submit the construction plan and a statement of total weight that specify the weight of each gusset plate. Construction plan which all suspension weight divided by the number of suspension base point can not accepted.

Height Restriction

Objects regarded as decorations (such as metallic and wooden objects, signs, lighting fixtures, speakers, banners, and fabrics) should be no higher than 6m, same as the height restriction. Trusses for suspended structures and chain motor boxes are not subject to this restriction but should be positioned so as not to obstruct the view of other exhibitors. For safety, chains suspending decoration trusses should be fixed to the truss joints within approximately 1m above the decoration truss. Exhibitors must pay costs even if the Management Office requests a change.

Other Restrictions and Precautions

  1. Design ornamental trusses to have a combined structure that is not separated in pieces.
  2. Design suspended trusses to prevent impact from horizontal vibrations caused by an earthquake and secure as much distance as possible between installed trusses.
  3. In regard to the wiring of cables that cross the floor to the ornamental truss, design it so that it can prevent disconnection from horizontal vibrations caused by an earthquake and can be installed flexibly.
  4. When installing PDPs and speaker channel lettering and lighting for ornamental trusses, take measures to prevent them falling such as securing them with bolts and wires.
  5. Only use unobtrusive colors such as black and gray for components such as trusses.
  6. Exhibitors that install suspended trusses shall assume full responsibility for accidents that occur during the construction of the suspended structure or are caused by the suspended structure during the exhibition period.
  7. When selecting booth positions, the exhibition layout from the office clearly indicates areas where structures can be from the ceiling. If an area other than an area where ceiling-suspended structures are possible is selected, and the exhibitor suspends structures, the exhibitor will be liable for cost incurred etc.
