Is there a type of pipe rack in the form of straps that can be used on concrete beams (columns)?

Design the concrete columns as \"corbelled\" structural columns.

In actual engineering projects, there are indeed cases where drilling holes in the surface of concrete structures to install anchor plates or bolts is not allowed; in such situations, a \"clamping\" or \"band\" type pipe support solution is generally used. This type of clamp-type pipe rack essentially fixes the pipe rack to concrete beams or columns using steel clamps (similar to snap rings or straps), with friction being utilized to achieve a secure connection. Specifically: 1. Principle: – U-shaped or ring-shaped steel clamps (usually galvanized steel strips or shaped steel) are used; rubber pads are added to come into contact with the concrete surface to prevent sliding, and the clamps are tightened using bolts. - An adjustable bolt tensioning system is used to ensure that the clamps have sufficient clamping force, preventing the pipeline supports from shifting or loosening. 2. Features: - Does not damage the original concrete structure, nor does it destroy the reinforcement cover layer. - It is easy to install and remove, and offers high adjustability. - It represents a special form of pipe support, commonly used in projects with specific requirements (such as pipe racks, bridge, or tunnel structures where it is not possible to make holes for anchors). 3. Applicable scenarios: – Municipal utility tunnels, bridge pipelines, as well as water supply, drainage, and heating pipelines, in situations where traditional anchor bolts cannot be used for installation. Standardization issues: Currently, domestic standards do not contain any specific provisions regarding \"clamp-type pipe racks that are directly bonded to concrete structures.\" This is because such products are mostly custom-made, and standards can only provide general principles rather than detailed specifications. From a technical perspective, as long as the structural mechanics calculations meet the stress requirements, are approved by the design institute, and gain the consent of the owner, such a design scheme is generally permitted. Recommended solution: - Have a reputable manufacturer design and produce hoop-type pipe supports that meet the stress requirements, based on the actual conditions of the project; simultaneously, conduct structural calculations, prepare calculation reports, and develop construction plans. - Submit it to the relevant design units for review, and implement it after obtaining the owner’s approval. Therefore, although not explicitly specified in current standards, \"clamping-type\" pipe racks are quite common in practical engineering projects and represent a reasonable special engineering solution. .
