Hey all,
I'm working on a production that wants a wall to slowly move from upright to 30 degrees so that it leans down stage. I'm approaching this by using high strength hinges that attach to a ledger board that is then lagged into our deck. We have an automated line set and my thought is to use the line set to control the angle. What I'm struggling to deduce is what force the line set would take from the wall. I can't seem to locate any of my rigging books (recently moved and its still a mess) to put me on a path, and even if I did, I don't think I'd be able to figure it out confidently. I've included a diagram to help explain my situation. Any help would be appreciated.
