okay i know it getting pushed by Velez as a replacement for timber and steel.
but with loads of a tonne at least, due to 20kg lights, yes i checked, theres nothing smaller than 15kgs, and fly system, i had to use steel for some beams to take the pressure off.
still used bamboo beams everywhere else though.
i worked out about 20 lights a bar and 12 bars along a beam. and what with the failure point of bamboo beams being underside of the beam, i didnt think it was safe to use a relatively unknown system to carry high loads over childrens heads.
but for those interested...
