Piping issues
Thread Content
I would like to ask the experts in piping and structural engineering: as shown in the diagram, this pipe passes through the steel structure, and I’m not sure whether this is allowed
The standards do not explicitly prohibit it; what medium is flowing through this tube? Load must be considered during traversal, and carburization also needs to be taken into account in such an arrangement.
Worn like this, this steel beam is probably ruined too.
The pipe is not very large and is circular; that’s fine. If the reduced cross-section is too large, it is necessary to have the structural engineering team review it
Additionally, the bending deformation of the beam can also affect the pipeline, and this should be taken into account in stress analysis
It is basic common sense to arrange pipes in such a way as to avoid the building’s load-bearing structures; this requires modifying the pipe layout
It’s better not to do this; it’s simply caused by collisions during piping – there’s no actual conflict, just a slight upward or downward movement of the pipes in certain areas
It’s likely that the person who built the model didn’t see the beam here, and didn’t check it after completion.
