Structural steel pipe supports are extensively industrial and manufacturing facilities. Lack industry standards for this topic leads to each adopting its own engineering standards, at a clear understanding of the underlying theoretical and the cost implications.
Designing pipe supports for seismic conditions consists of two parts: 1) design of connections (anchorage or fastening) of the pipes to the supporting structure for the seismic loads; and, 2) design of the pipe support structure for the seismic forces.
This paper summarizes the building code and industry practice design criteria, design loads and other design consideration for pipe racks. Keywords: non-building structures, pipe, racks, support, design.
27 mar 2021 · In order to demonstrate the capability and effectiveness of the present design optimization problem, a pipe rack structure is optimized by the proposed algorithms, and the optimized designs are compared to an ordinary design in terms of the structural weight and the status of constraints.
26 kwi 2014 · Practical examples of pipe and structural support design, using conventional professional simulation tools, such as: Pelican Forge and other computer simulation models. Data and procedures...
puter program for the optimum design of a steel pipe rack structure commonly used in petrochemical plants. The procedure leads to substantial weight (and cost) savings in most situations. Considering the tonnage of steel used in petrochemical plant pipe racks, the savings potential may be truly remarkable. STRUCTURAL SYSTEM—PIPE RACK
31 gru 2010 · This paper summarizes the building code and industry practice design criteria, design loads and other design consideration for pipe racks. Pipe racks are structures in petrochemical, chemical and power plants that are designed to support pipes, power cables and instrument cable trays.
