Equipment fall
Seismic forces can cause support failure and equipment drop, leading to injury and property loss.
Seismic risk cannot be ignored — system bracing is critical to MEP safety
Without continuous restraint and reliable anchorage, MEP piping and equipment can fall, collide, lose function, or trigger secondary disasters under seismic action. Systematic bracing is essential to building MEP safety.
Pipeline collision
Displacement can cause pipes to collide, resulting in rupture, leakage, or joint damage.
Function interruption
Critical MEP systems may fail, compromising post-earthquake building usability.
Secondary disasters
Leakage from fire or water systems may trigger fire, water damage, and other secondary hazards.
