Installation of seismic bracing for cable trays on side walls

Connect cables directly to 3/8" threaded rod in trapeze installations for seismic bracing. Predrilled tabs allow attachment directly to concrete deck. Spacing must be at least every 30'. Technical overview of seismic cable tray design considerations including bracing splice reinforcement movement accommodation cable retention and support verification. High-seismicity projects place much greater demands on cable tray systems than ordinary installations. When an earthquake happens, the ground really shakes. This can mess up buildings, bridges, and. Eaton's TOLCO seismic bracing solutions help protect people and non-structural components during an earthquake.
