Pls help me how to calc tension on threaded rod on following condition.

Hospital project (OSHPD), seismic zone = 4 (0.45g), weight of trapeze (w/conduits) = 100 lb/lf, supported at every 8ft, one transverse brace at every 16ft and one tranverse + two longitudinal braces at 32ft.
Width of trapeze is 3ft and length of rods are 5ft.

How to calc the tension on the vertical support (rod) at seismic restraint location?

Thanks.
