When you said, "We normally design the bent as panel, not tower, and all longitudinal force go to drive station or last bent touching the ground."

I am looking for a source that kind of explain structural design of conveyor truss and trestles.

Also, I forgot to ask, with two trolleys case, are there any requirement how the load is attached? If two trolleys picking one load, should be only with vertical slings or it can be angled slings to each trolley?
Is the two trolley case applicable for two separate loads each individually with...
CCox (Structural): Thank you for your response and sharing your experience with me. Since, this is new subject to me first question is why they use two trolleys? Or in other words in what cases or for what purposes they use double trolley? Also, unfortunately I don't have any software to model...
