Typical “grid system” for overhead equipment. Its versatile rail locations allow a solid support system for the equipment, but also allow mounting for overhead ductwork and electrical systems.

This picture shows a Unistrut support structure for a Physical Therapy Swing for a hospital in Wooster Ohio. It uses components that include P1001, P1000 and attaches to the building bar joists.

Typical radiology equipment support. Note the Unistrut designed and installed structural columns built within the building walls, allowing all structural steel members to be concealed.

Another typical grid system. This one for radiology equipment.

Structural steel support system for heavy service boom. This particular support is supporting a piece of equipment that weighs nearly 2,000 lbs, and has a moment load of nearly 10,000 ft-lbs. Strict design criteria set forth by the manufacturer requires less than .2 degrees (yes, that is correct, .2 degrees) of rotation under load.

Grid system for heavy Catheterization equipment “C-Arm”. Note the structural steel attaching to the building columns.
