Selection of dimensions for pipe support embedments
Thread Content
Hello everyone, we have an indoor water supply pipe with a DN100 diameter, and door-type hangers are being used; the hangers are made of 50-mm angle steel. At present, it’s not clear what size the embedments should be – should they be through-type embedments or two separate ones? Are there any relevant standards or software available for such calculations? I’ve looked through many catalogs, but I couldn’t find any information regarding the appropriate selection criteria Could design experts offer some advice?
The dimensions of the base of the hanger can be such that it can be fully welded to the embedded components; you can choose the dimensions as you wish. For this independent, continuous section, no specific requirements exist; however, if loads are involved, it may be necessary to provide that information in advance to the civil engineering team, who will then determine the rivets needed for the mounting elements. If the loads are not significant, expansion bolts can also be used to secure the steel plate later on.
