From a gig last week....

Is it me or should they all have been rotated 90 degrees? There is no diagonal bracing visible on the sides of the truss. Instead, it looks like they were put on top and bottom.
 
It looks like the they had to set the truss that way as the corner blocks would only work in that config. I dont think those three way corners are meant to be used in this config or someone put the spigots on in the wrong orientation...just my thoughts, and yup, I could be wrong...

Yep, the truss is on it's side. What a nightmare!
 
It is possible to engineer and fabricate a "truss" (would techincally no longer be a truss) such that diagonal bracing could be replaced with just the vertical bars as seen in these photos; however, it would not be economical to do so.
 
On the plus side, rather clever CREW shirt, tuck it in and you are good to go.
