INSTRUCTIONS FOR SUSPENDING LOADS FROM CEILING
1. REQUIRED DOCUMENTATION:
The suspension data sheet (annex 1), table of loads to be suspended (annex 2) attached to this formulary and the
project of what is planned to be suspended from the ceiling must be submitted at least 30 days before the exhibition
starts. The project must include the following compulsory documents:
a) Graphic printouts in quota comprising the ground plan, lateral and axonometric views of the product to be
suspended. The drawings must include the position and values of the estimated loads on the truss system to be
suspended. The points where the truss system will be connected to the Fiera Milano Congressi suspensions must
also be specified;
b) Technical report drawn up by a trusted professional containing:
- description of the suspended structures;
- details of materials to be used (eyebolts, steel cables or jack chains, truss systems, etc.)
- indication of effective weights of materials to be used (truss systems, spotlights, wiring, lifting systems, etc.)
- estimate of load on the product’s structure and tests on the relevant induced stress;
- indication of the product’s suspension points and relevant loads at each point, taking into account that the loads
given in the table attached to this formulary must not be exceeded;
- for the suspended structures’ stability sake it must anyhow be guaranteed that should any anchorage to the
suspension cables supplied by Fiera Milano Congressi collapse (structural connection, Halfen bolts, lifting mechanism,
etc.) this will not entail the risk of collapse and/or overload exceeding the tolerated threshold at each anchorage point,
endangering the entire structure;
c) It is compulsory for the exhibitor to submit a correct assembly declaration; static calculation and static
compliance report, signed by two different professionals, of the suspension s to Fiera Milano Congressi S.p.A.,
certifying, to all lawful purposes that said suspensions conform to the relevant safety preventive measures. The
deadline for submitting the correct assembly and project conformity declaration is 24 hours before the exhibition starts.
N.B. Should the exhibitor take advantage of FMC trusted professionals or should said deadline not be kept, as said
deadline cannot be extended due to the imminent opening of the exhibition, Fiera Milano Congressi S.p.A. will instruct
one of their own professionals to draw up the required declaration, charging the exhibitor with the relative cost. Should
any obstacles or problems arise for any reason to hinder the aforesaid controls ordered by Fiera Milano Congressi
S.p.A. then the utilities provided by Fiera Milano Congressi S.p.A. to the stand (power, water, compressed air, etc.)
will be cut off and the stand closed to visitors.
ATTENTION:
- It is important to keep to the above terms as Fiera Milano Congressi S.p.A. must have the documentation examined
by engineers to control compatibility between the programmed structures and the permanent structures in the hall.
Fiera Milano Congressi S.p.A. reserves the right to confirm whether the structure is compatible or not with the area
assigned to the exhibitor, save for exhibition regulations.
2. IN GENERAL
2.1. The “suspension” service is available in all the halls at the Quartiere Fieramilano City with suspension structures
provided as per attached table;
2.2. The “Suspension” service consists in supplying special cables hooked to the ceiling, used to suspend stand
fittings and lighting belonging to the exhibitor or to a trusted firm or hired from Fiera Milano Congressi itself;
2.3. Special cables hooked to the ceiling will be supplied by Fiera Milano Congressi only, whilst the exhibitor or a
trusted firm will be responsible for fixing the structures not provided by Fiera Milano Congressi.
It is compulsory for the exhibitor to hook up all the suspension cables including the safety cables installed and booked
through Fiera Milano Congressi, to own suspended structures.
To the contrary Fiera Milano Congressi Spa reserves the right to do this alone, charging relative costs.
2.4. Fiera Milano Congressi will establish the position and number of cables to be supplied by the latter, based on
specifications in the technical project submitted by the Exhibitor and on the location of the structures from which said
cables would then be suspended, quantifying the additional safety cables required;
2.5. The free end of the cable supplied by Fiera Milano Congressi will be fitted with a special certified fixed thimble;
2.6. Cables will be placed at a height of 150/200 cm exceeding the maximum allowed by Exhibition Regulations;
2.7. The height of suspended structures from the ground must conform to General Exhibition Regulations, unless
derogation is allowed by the Organizer, Operational Secretary’s Office dept.;
2.8. See the load table attached to this formulary for the maximum load bearing capacity at each hook-up point
supplied by Fiera Milano Congressi;
2.9. Cables supplied by Fiera Milano Congressi will be hooked up to the specially prepared structures only: said
structures are distributed in the following way:
Halifax rails on the ceiling will be used in Quartiere Fieramilano City. Said rails will be distributed differently depending
on the areas in the halls. It is possible to check whether there are Halifix rails above the area assigned to each
exhibitor by contacting the Fiera Milano Congressi Exhibitor’s Assistance Office;
2.10. If the zone above the area assigned to the exhibitor does not have any of the special structures described in the
above points, special supplementary anchorage systems can be hired after reaching an agreement case by case with
the Fiera Milano Congressi technical office;
2.11. The exhibitor or a trusted firm shall use appropriate systems for fixing the structures to guarantee perfect
anchorage. Any steel cables used must have a diameter of no less than 5 mm and the diameter of the rods used for
any jack chains must be no less than 6 mm;
2.12. Suspension cables supplied by Fiera Milano Congressi must not be pulled diagonally by the exhibitor or by the
trusted firm.
2.13. Suspensions with lifting equipment (hoists, lever block rigs, etc.) must be fitted with safety cables;
2.14. Loads applied to the truss system (lighting fixtures, speakers, etc.) must be fixed to the latter by own specific
anchorages as well as other anchorage systems (wire ropes, jack chains) to guarantee safety in case their own
anchorage systems collapse;
2.15. For obvious safety reasons, mixed suspension systems (suspension from ceiling + floor-mounted) will only be
allowed if the items solidly mounted to the floor are adequately protected against accidental blows;
2.16. Safety hooks for guaranteeing the stability of floor-mounted fittings will only be allowed if they conform to these
instructions, including submission of required documentation;
2.17. Suspensions from the ceiling must not interfere with the smoke detection system in the halls at Quartiere
Fieramilano City. This system comprises a network of sensors, placed at two levels in the higher part of the hall and
connected together by infrared rays;
WARNING: the hall’s fire fighting system will be activated if a ray is interrupted;
2.18. Suspensions from the ceiling must not interfere with the hall lighting installations;
2.19. Any electrical equipment installed on the suspended structures must be plugged into the sockets inside the
assigned area. Cables hanging from suspended structures must be anchored to specific supports (e.g. steel cables or
floor-mounted columns);
The sum must be paid at Fiera Milano Congressi request only, against invoice or final statement of account.
