Bridge ChannelBridge Channels provide support for horizontal transmis-sion line runs as well as protection from hazards, such asfalling ice. The channels are formed of 11-gauge (3 mm)steel and are hot-dip galvanized after fabrication. All slotsare 7/16" (11 mm) x 7/8" (22 mm) long for 3/8" diameterhardware. Each section includes ten 3/8" diameter x1-1/4" long bolts, nuts, lockwashers, and flatwashers forsplicing or support. If cutting is required to accommodateunusual angles or lengths, the B186 Touch-up Kit orB364 Touch-up Spray (p. 13.04) is recommended fortreating raw metal edges.

Canopy Wall Support BracketThe Canopy Wall Suport Bracket supports a 1' (305 mm)to 3" (914 mm) wide bridge running parallel to a walland is used above building entries for transmission lineswith a large bend radius. If the wall height allows, theBracket is oriented with the Bridge Channels mountedbelow the Bracket. If not the Bracket is inverted and theBridge Channels mounted on top, with the transmissionlines routed around the diagonal angle of the Bracket. The1/2"diameter hardware for wall mounting is not included.

The Bracket is galvanized after fabrication.

Bridge Support at TowerThe location of vertical transmission line runs on a toweris the prime consideration in deciding where and how thehorizontal Bridge should be terminated at the tower.

An easy method for planning and installing the horizon-tal Bridge is to position a Pipe Column near a tower leg,to support the end of the Bridge, as shown below. Thiseliminates any direct attachment to the tower andenables use of Pipe-Leg Support Clamps (section 2) forsupport of the vertical transmission line runs. Whenvertical runs are supported on ladders or center cagestructures, the Pipe Column may be located close tothose vertical-support structures.

When Bridge Channel is to be supported from the tower,the type of tower construction will usually determine thebest method for attaching the Channel. The versatileproducts in this section enable Channels to be sup-ported from the legs, girts, and diagonal braces of thetower. The product illustrations show the most commonmethods used.
