Not looking for rigging advice, per se. Just wanted to share a few photos of questionable rigging that I will be approaching management about. Comments that would help me express the problem would be helpful:
Light batten rigging: a 30 foot bar with 20 slimpars, 3 wilreropes slung over an I beam above the plaster ceiling and secured by 1 wirerope clamp and a bit of zip tie. Might be two clamps up top.
Mess of what appears to be a wire the size and feel of coat hanger wire holding up part of a fixture with CFLs
Manilla (?) rope holding batten with border. No idea when it was installed/inspected. Venue is 80 yrs ol; guessing maybe at least 15 yrs ago or more.
