About this detail

The trapeze hanger assembly suspends electrical services using one-half inch threaded rods and metal channels attached to overhead structural framing. A ridge sway brace fabricated from Unistrut or equivalent is required for stems over eighteen inches long to prevent lateral swaying, connected to the stem via a U-bolt connection. The bottom metal channel supports suspended runs secured with one-half inch nuts and neoprene washers, allowing a maximum of five threads showing beyond the nut with an end cap provided. Mounting heights above the finished floor must be coordinated with equipment, other trades, and feeders. The supporting metal channel must be anchored at structural panel points.
