Description: Learn more about seismic bracing for fire protection applications. Discover the relevant codes and standards that dictate when seismic bracing is needed and where to find the relevant seismic design criteria on plans. See what the components of a typical seismic bracing system are for different kinds of fire protection piping and what products can offer time-savings for both contractors and inspectors. Understand what the maximum spacing and minimum bracing requirements for different kinds of seismic braces are and what exceptions may be options to incorporate during the design phase.
