SYSTEMS THAT MAKE SENSESEISMICRESTRAINTSM ulti- directional Bracing ForElectrical conduit , Cable Tray And Mechanical Piping SystemsINTRODUCTIONWhat is Seismic Bracing ?Seismic forces are exerted on a building and its contents during an earthquake. These forces acthorizontally upon the structure itself, as well as the piping, Cable trays, ductwork , and other buildingsystems within. Typical supports for piping, trays, and other equipment are designed for the gravity,or vertical, loads but do not take into account the horizontal loading caused by earthquakes. Seismicrestraints ( braces) resist the horizontal forces and keep the systems in place and secure. The mainpurpose of seismic Bracing is safety- to minimize the loss of life due to an earthquake. Seismic Bracing RequirementsThe rules and requirements for the seismic restraints are published in the model building codes: TheUniformBuilding Code (International Conference of Building Officials), National Building Code(Building Officials and Code Administrators), StandardBuilding Code (Southern Building CodeCongress International), and the International Building Code.
