Q:
What is trunnion support in piping? What is a pipe trunnion? A: Pipe trunnions could refer to a variety of supports that mainly functionto support the pipe weight and generally used
Where little or no pipemovement is anticipated.
Q:
What is shoe support in piping? A: To support oversized and heavyweight piping, pipe shoes as well as other industrial clamps are used. Pipe shoes are
Designed to elevate the pipe at some height above the pipe support. A pipeline needs to be supported from a
Foundation or a structure...The pipe shoe is usually installed as a wear plate
Q:
What is saddle support? A: A saddle support is a support consisting of a stanchion that utilizes a curved section for cradling the pipe.
Q:
What is pipe shoe? A: A pipe shoe is a structure consisting of a saddle and integral base that is used to support the pipe by transmitting the
Load or forces to the adjacent structure.
Q:
What is pipe guide? A: Pipe guides are needed and used to facilitate the thermal pipe expansion so that the axial movement is properly directed to the expansion joint. Guides are designed to prevent buckling or squirming of the pipe.
Q:
What special types of pipe supports? Spring hangers /can type supports? And applications? A: The use of spring hangers and can type supports is quite common in critical processes and power plant units. Lines operating at high temperature move upwards/downwards (depending on the pipe configuration) due to thermal expansion. Variable spring supports are useful in high temperature, high pressure conditions as they have a spring element that gets compressed or flexed when there is thermal movement of pipe and related loads. Rigid supports don't work in such conditions and may cause breakdown. The spring hangers give continuous support when there is expansion or contraction of the pipe.
Application: To minimize piping loads on nozzles, spring supports shall be used.
