Equipment mounting racks and cabinets

A rack for mounting equipment, composed of a seismically sound skeleton structure having spaced vertical uprights supplemented by distinct spaced equipment mounting structures attached to said skeleton structure and extending along said vertical uprights and constituting side wall structures of amounting rack interior space in lateral extension of said vertical uprights and including means for mounting said equipment wherein:

• said vertical uprights have elongate partial enclosures extending along said vertical uprights;
• and
• said spaced equipment mounting structures are attached to said elongate partial enclosures.
