DRAGGING AROUND IHP'S 4000 LBS BASE WEIGHTS/BALLAST

Hello everyone from IHP. Today we thought we would EXPERIMENT with one of our 3' x 3' x 3' Base Weights/Ballast (BWB) that weighs about 4000 pounds just to see what it would take to drag it using our trusty forklift. The BWB was sitting flat on the asphalt road with nothing under the weight.  
What we found was dragging the bwb from a straight pull was around 1700 lbs and the angle drag force pull was around 1450 lbs.  

 

This is a difference of about 250 lbs drag force. So, going from a flat pull to an angle pull reduces the force it takes to move the weight. The bwb still weighed 4000 lbs. 


To give the bwb better stay-in-place force, we could have added rubber under the bwb or staked the bwb down using tent stakes. This was a simple test so we can make better plans when using our Base Weight/Ballast.

If you would like more information about IHP's Base Weights, give us a call at

In-House Production's Audio Towers and Crews.

  In-House Production's Audio     Towers are a great addition to   RRS Productions Audio   Systems when required to hang   speakers 30 feet to 40 feet in   the air with no worries. All   towers are engineered for the   application they are used for.

IHP's crew is working to stabilize the speaker towers for a safe event. We had some great help from the local Allegiant Crew. 



When working in the Allegiant Stadium, IHP's crew needed to be properly dressed for the job. Allegiant Stadium is the home of OUR LAS VEGAS RAIDERS, and the best way to respect the Raiders in the Allegiant Stadium is to be in Raiders Colors, SILVER & BLACK.

Custom Low-Profile Audio Carts

RRS Audio Systems ask In-House Production to custom-build low-profile audio carts that will easily roll on the grass 


After a little back and forth we came up with the perfect design to have speakers on the football field. 



 They look good and work great. Thanks, RRS for a great project.

Delivery inside the Allegiant Stadium

In-House Production delivered staging and trussing and a small crew to the Allegiant Stadium for one of the GREAT events inside the stadium.

Base Weights Used For Weights-On-Stage

This was a New Design for a Video Wall Install. Take In-House Production's 1ft x 3ft x 3ft Base Weights, put them on Steel Deck 4ft in the air, Bolt Truss to the Base Weights, and then install your video wall. What an Idea. Who needs Sandbags?. 



From the front, this had to look and work great. Great footprint over the steel deck and very little change of the video wall tipping over. In-House Production has those base weights ready for your next event. 

Call or email In-House Production at 702-631-4748 or info@ihplabor.com.

CUSTOM TRUSS CART DOLLIES



In-House Production was asked to build some custom truss dollies. A dolly that can be used to stand the truss up and roll into place. When done, you can lay the truss down and use the dolly as a storage cart.  

    
What we have here is a scissor dolly and a custom 16in by 16in truss.


The dolly is made from Aluminum and the casters are flat-free. This rolls easily over just about everything.


The bottom dolly is designed to have the truss lay horizontal and have lights added to the truss. When ready roll the lights in place. Made to roll over cable ramps with no problem.
