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'. 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. When an earthquake happens, the ground really shakes. These guidelines summarise the design parameters, criteria.

Several types of tray are used in different applications. A solid-bottom tray provides the maximum protection to cables, but requires cutting the tray or using fittings to enter or exit cables. A deep, solid enclosure for cables is called a cable channel or cable trough. A ventilated tray has openings in the bottom of the tray, allowing some air circulation around the cables, water drainage, and allowing some dust to fall through the tray. Small cables may exit the tray throug.
