Performance of seismic bracing for cable trays
A number of shake table tests on portions of cable tray and conduit systems confirm these observations from past earthquakes and demonstrate that typical configurations perform well under repeated high- level seismic input test spectra on the order of 1. In regions prone to seismic activity, ensuring that your cable tray system is capable of withstanding such events is vital. Recommendations are made for improvements in the design procedures for seismic bracing of. Our cable tray, bolted framing, and seismic bracing are approved as one system through third party testing.
