Seeking help with stress verification of pipeline supports
Thread Content
For pipe supports constructed using section steel, how is their strength verified? The design institute provides information on the stress levels at the fixing points, so as to determine whether the pipe supports can withstand those stresses. So I’d like to ask everyone, how is this situation resolved?
Waiting for help online, please help me, experts!

Once the stress conditions on the fixed pipe supports are transmitted to the process pipes, those pipes should take into account these stress conditions (which may require multiplication by a safety factor, such as 1.1, or may not require such multiplication). The thrust and loads associated with the fixed pipe supports are then passed on to the civil engineering team, who will determine the appropriate type of steel to be used as well as the stress requirements for the pile foundations.
This depends on whether the support is designed for pipelines or structures; if it is designed for pipelines, standard support diagrams are generally used, which indicate the allowable load and range of application. If it’s a structural design, as mentioned above, it’s sufficient to provide the relevant information for calculating the strength of the civil structure.
This support is generally determined through structural calculations, with pipe stress analysis providing the reaction forces on the support. It is necessary to calculate the strength and stiffness of the bracket structure; if bolt anchoring is used, the bolts must also be calculated.
