By incorporating Eaton’s support recommendations with straight sections, cable tray fittings, vertical adjustable splice plates, and heavy duty expansion splice plates, B-Line series cable ladder solutions can help eliminate substantial costs in both labor and support materials on any given project.
Lower total install cost through reduction of structural steel supports
Eaton’s B-Line series metallic cable ladder systems are designed to provide superior strength to weight ratio while providing a lower total installed cost.
To achieve a lower total installed cost, Eaton’s engineers developed an innovative means to significantly reduce the number of structural steel supports needed in cable ladder installations, without diminishing the load carrying capacity of the system.
Safety first
Design considerations
When assessing a project for the lowest total installed cost, Eaton recommends focusing on four key design considerations:
- Longer straight section spans
- Fitting support locations
- Vertical adjustable support locations
- Thermal expansion support locations
