Seismic and cable tray solution flyer
Our team of experts can help you select the best cable tray series for your application, as well as designing your seismic bracing layout to ensure it meets applicable building codes and standards.
Seismic Bracing Ensures Stability and Safety of Cable Trays
Seismic bracing can enhance the stability and safety of cable trays during earthquakes and other vibration events, ensuring your cable system is secure and stable.
SEISMIC BRACING OF A DISTRIBUTED CABLE TRAY SYSTEM
The cable trays have diagonal bracing between layers of cable trays in the longitudinal direction using proprietary steel members and connected using bolts and clamps.
Cable Tray Checklist for High-Seismicity Projects
The most important lesson for seismic cable tray design is simple: do not treat seismic performance as an accessory. It is a core design requirement for nonstructural electrical systems in

Why do 150N/m Cable Trays Require Seismic Bracing?
Not all cable trays require seismic bracing. Smaller trays (e.g., 200mm) that contain only a few control or lightweight cables will typically have a total weight below 150N/m.
The shake on seismic bracing
Seismic bracing against the wrath of earthquakes is an increasing concern for today''s data-communications and telecommunications cable installer, and efforts
