Weight Per Support
Weight Per Support
Weight per support (daN) = (cable load / meter + own weight of the cable support system / meter) x support distance
EXAMPLE 1 : Cable tray KBSI 60*300*1.25 mounted on WKS 300. What is the maximum support or span distance ?
Remark : The load diagram of the cable support system shows that a load of 44 daN/m of 44 kg/m is no problem on such a support distance.
EXAMPLE 2 : Cable ladder KLIG 100*400, support distance 4m. Which support will we chose ?
Own weight of cable ladder KLIG 100*400 = 6,43 daN/m (6,43 kg/m)
Weight per support : (68 daN/m + 6,43 daN/m) x 4 = 297,7 daN
Remark : The maximum load values for supports shows that a WKS 400 is not strong enough (Max. load is 130 daN). WK 400 is a better choice, as this
support can carry a maximum of 430 kg/m.
