Vecotworks Spotlight recognises the following load cases and StageDocs assigns the Spotlight objects to the same load cases:
We assign the following partial safety factors to these load cases in accordance with EN 17879:
| Load Case | Type | Faktor () |
|---|---|---|
| Light | Variable | 1,5 |
| Video | Variable | 1,5 |
| Audio | Variable | 1,5 |
| Decoration | Variable | 1,5 |
| Truss | Permanent | 1,35 |
| Rigging | Variable | 1,5 |
| Cable | Variable | 1,5 |
EN 17879 expects this categorisation of entertainment technology as a standard case, but allows deviations under strict requirements. StageDocs is a tool for operators. Therefore, this default setting cannot be changed.
