Stainless Steel Pipe Support Span Table

Design aspects for construction composite steel framed structures 54 table c 1 office floors.

Stainless steel pipe support span table. Notes tempratures in the above table are in degrees. Spans or support spacing are based on maximum pipe deflections of 6 35 mm up to 6 and 12 7 mm for pipe sizes 8 and above. Spans are adequate without the addition of auxiliary supports for insulated lines and lines on shoes. The standard also provides support spacing for copper tubes pvc pipe cpvc pipe stainless steel ductile iron and cast iron pipe.

In practice longer spans are usually feasible with a deadweight bending stress in the order of 5000 psi to 10 000 psi. Fn beam camber nos. Allowable spans are based on a maximum bending stress of 41 37 mpa 6000 psi or a maximum deflection of 12 7 mm 0 5in. Standard offices q 3 1 5 premium grade offices q 4 1 5 span spacing beam camber nos studs nat.

However the standard does not provide any criteria or basis for deriving the support spacings. Pipe walls require reinforcing at point of support. Let us calculate the maximum support span for transporting water through a seamless stainless steel pipe astm a 312 tp 316 l of 300 nps through a distance of 15 km. We all know that while routing aboveground piping or pipeline from one part or equipment to other we have to support the pipe at some places.

All dimensions are in millimeters except as noted. Spans indicated above shall not be used. Does anyone know of a. Pipe support spacing table chart for carbon steel pipes.

Spans are also provided for pipe deflection. This is a classic spacing table for steel pipe. As per table 4 of mss sp 58 the support span for 6 sch40 pipe in water service is 5 2m. Pipe support span is defined as the optimum distance between two supports so as to avoid excessive stress sagging or failure of the piping system in extreme cases.

D 0 3239 m p 20 bar s b 34 53 mpa 30 of s a 115 1 mpa. It is based on a maximum bending stress of 2300 psi and maximum sag at mid span of 0 10. I need to know the maximum unsupported spans of 12 14 and 16 stainless steel pipe and at what wall thickness. Pressure in pipe is 20 bar at atmospheric temperature using the procedure described above.

The pipe will carry air at 214 f.
