ABSTRACT:
A cable tray that can be easily assembled at a construction location and which provides a configuration that can be modified to adapt to various on-site requirements. A preferred configuration of the cable tray disclosed herein includes a commercially standard strut suspended from an overhead surface and having a U-shaped rung fastened to the strut. The system provides a fastening system that can be installed using conventional, readily available, high-speed driver systems. The cable tray of the present invention may be mounted so as to depend from horizontal surfaces or may be directly bolted to a vertical surface. Further, the cable tray may be adapted to provided a two-tier cable tray even after installation of the primary cable tray. Various fastening systems are disclosed which attach the rung to the strut. The system is primarily designed to be highly modular so that installers can adapt individual components to particular vagrancies of a building under construction during installation of the cable tray.
