indicated of nominal width with maximum rung spacing of 150 mm.

Provide solid bottom trays consisting of two longitudinal side members


connected by a one-piece bottom section. Sizes as indicated of nominal
width. Provide solid covers.

Cable tray shall be galvanized steel, solid bottom /solid corrugated


bottom with a cover. Various sizes shall be used and installed above the
false
ceiling and under the raised floors. Cable tray shall be used to route
the system cables from the Telecommunication Rooms to the conduits
feeding the outlets. The cable tray shall be UL classified or other
recognized organization as a grounding conductor and sized to have an
initial fill volume of no more than 20 percent. Multiple cables trays
shall be used to properly distribute the systems UTP, and RG6 coax cable.
Cable tray shall be utilized for 85-90 percent of the feeder length with
the last 10-15 percent being conduit.

2.2 FABRICATION

Submit fabrication drawings for cable trays. Ensure the drawings contain
details showing the fabrication and assembly details performed in the
factory.

Before assembly, use an antioxidant compound to coat the contact surfaces


of trays. Ensure that the finishes of edges, fittings, and hardware are
free from burrs and sharp edges. Include splice and end plates, dropouts,
and miscellaneous hardware.

2.3 COMPONENTS

2.3.1 Supports

Permit both vertical and horizontal adjustment, where possible on supports


and hangers. Provide an adequate bearing surface for the tray on the
horizontal and vertical tray supports, and ensure that the surface can
accommodate holddown clamps or fasteners. Provide a means, other than
friction, for securely fastening cable trays to supports.

Provide support for cable trays at intervals of no more than 1828 mm ().
Place supports for horizontal-elbow tray fittings within 609 mm () of each
fitting extremity and as recommended by the cable tray manufacturer.

Ensure that the cable trays can carry at least 667 N () when supported at
1828 mm () intervals. Ensure that the tray fittings have a load-carrying
capacity that is equal to or greater than that of straight tray sections.
Ensure that the radius of tray fittings is based on the minimum bending
radius of the cables, as specified by the cable manufacturer.

2.4 MATERIALS

Provide cable trays constructed of high-strength corrosion-resistant


aluminum Alloy No. 5052-H32 steel in accordance with ASTM A1008/A1008M and
that has a zinc coating which was applied after fabrication.
