Seismic Bracing Cable Tray Parameters and Principles

This article discusses the importance of seismic resistance for cable trays, detailing when seismic braces are necessary, the factors that affect seismic resistance, and how to ensure your cable tray system can withstand earthquakes. High-seismicity projects place much greater demands on cable tray systems than ordinary installations. During an earthquake, cable trays are exposed not only to gravity loads and normal service loads, but also to lateral movement, vertical acceleration, vibration, and building drift. The bracing system was designed to meet building code requirements in addition to the owner's design criteria. This article will.
