Modular structural framing system
The project was commissioned by the Valencia Lighting Fair, FIAM, to design and develop a modular structural framing system specific for the installation and intensive reusing of double-panel partition walls for rental exhibitors and other structural applications at the trade show.
The quick assembly system allows multiple configurations and it mainly consists of two aluminium 6063 alloy extruded profiles, with a decorative cover, and three hidden brackets T connectors (injection molding aluminium) for the different possibilities of anchorage.
It includes a set of accessories ranging from hooks, brackets and spring steel fastener clips for custom panelling systems, flange connectors for diagonal assembly, folded steel sheet for fixing printed or perforated tarpaulin, welded tubular structures, cast iron base, to standard lighting and signalling.
