Rather odd task. I need to temporarily span a distance of 32ft (approx. 9.75m). Temporarily being about 6 months! Whatever I use has to be fairly lightweight, single span and minimal sag. It can only be supported by 2" at each end. A very long ladder would do the job but an extending ladder would be no use. Has to be single span. I suppose I could join 2 aluminium or wooden ladders together. Intended usage is to support a very lightweight item from end to end but
10ft above ground. It's important that this is kept as flat as poss. Item would fit nicely between the uprights of a ladder. Can't tell you the exact purpose as I don't know. Suffice to say that it's to do with a uni project that my kids are working on. Of course cost is a major consideration. Any ideas please? Thanks, Nick.- posted
