54 HANGING AND SUPPORTING
SYSTEMS
5.4.1 Requirements.
S40 Rigid round, rcetangular, and fat oval metal
«ducts shail be installed with support systems
indicated in Tables 5-1 to 5-3 and Figures 5-1
1 5-10. They shall be installed as required 10
maintain alignment, Horizontal ducts shall
have a support within 2 (0.61 m) of each et
bow and within 11(1.2 m) of each branch,
terscetion. Upper attachments to structures
shall have an allowable load not more than
‘one-fourth of the failure (proof test) load but
are nol limited to the specifie methods shown
here.
52 COMMENTARY
‘The duct hanging system is composed of three ole-
ments, the upper attachment tothe building, the hang
et itself, and the lower attachment to the duct
‘The manufacturer's load ratings and application
data should be followed forall devices and materials
$2.1 Gonerete Inserts
Concrete inserts must be installed before the con-
‘rete is poured. They are used primarily where the
sluet layout is simple and there is enough lead time to
determine accurate placement. The simplest insert is
piece of bent flat bar, Manufactured inserts are avail-
able individually or in long lengths; the later are gen
crally used where many hangers will be installed in
or where individual inserts cannot be pre=
cisely spotted atthe time of placing the concrete.
5.2.2 Concrete Fasteners
Concrete fasteners are installed after the concrete
has been poured and the forms have been removed,
‘heir application allows groater flexibility than con
ereie inserts because their exaet location ean be deter
mined alter all interferences between the various
trades” work ave been coordinated.
There are soveral variations of powder-actuated fas-
{eners. which are installed with powder-acmated tools
and booster cartridges. Gas driven fasteners are also
used tor upper attachments. Powder-actuated or gas
Usiven fasteners should be used within the manufaetur-
e's published application limits. Load eapacities are
based on tests in representative base materials in
cordance with ASTM E1190,
RR HVAC Duct Construction Standards Metal and Flexible » Third E
NGERS AND SUPPORTS
5.2.3 Structural Steel Fasteners
Several types of beam clamps are available, Some
should be used with a retaining clip, Powder-actuated
‘and gas driven fasteners or threaded studs may also be
used on steel. Welded studs may be installed using spe-
cial welding equipment. Certain manufietured de-
vices that are driven onto the flange will support either
a rod or a band type hanger
624 Cellular Metal Deck
Many office buitdings are now built with a cellu
lar steel deck that carries the clecirical and comin
nication systems and is covered with concrete fill. The
‘wiring in the cells and the conerete above the deck pre
clude the use of fasteners, such as shect met
screws, that must pierce the deck, Some manufactur-
18 of this type of deck now offer an integral hanging
system. In eases where there ate no integral hangers at
the required hanging points, install the rod or strap
hhangers before concrete placement, or install welded
studs after concrete placement, In all cases, the upper
altachments to the decking should be in place before
the application of fireproofing materials
52.5 Upper Attachment
Upper altachment methods shoul be selected
with care, A safety factor of 4 or 5 (based on ultimate
failure) is practical unless it can be shoven that few un.
predictable variables exist and that quality contral is
disciplined.
52.6 Hangers
Hangers are usually stips of galvanized stect or
round steel rod. For hangers made of round steet rod,
luse uncoated hot-rolled steel except where the instal-
lation is in a corrosive atmosphere, Where corrosion is
4 problem, hanger rods should be electro-galvanized,
allthread ‘rots or hot-dipped galvanized rods
their threads painted after installation,
5.2.7 Lower Attachment
The lower allichment is the conncetion by
the hanger anc the duct section, Fasteners th
twate the duct may be sheet metal screws, blind rivets,
or selftapping metal screws.
5.2.0 Hanger Spacing
A straigit duct seetion is actually 9 box seetion
‘beam of considerable stcength. As in many structures,
the joint is the weakest point, so that is where the sup-
SAportis, Duct joints, however, are normally strong,
enough to permit maximum Hanger spacing at 8 ft
(2.44 m) of 10 R (3.05 m) intervals, even with one oF
two intermediate joins. Very wide duets require closer
hanger spacing, in order to limit individual hanger
Toads 10 safe values. They also requite intermediave
Thangers to prevent the upper portion of the duct from
sagging,
629 ‘Trapeze Selection
“Trapeze members must be selected with careful atten-
tion to the position of the loads on the horizontal
bat, Load analysis is discussed in the notes of Figure:
5.6,
5.2.10 Alger Supports
Rectangular risers should be supported by angle
or channels secured to thesides of the duct with
svelds, bolts, sheet metal serews, or blind rivets, Here
rpain, for ducts over 30 in. (762 mm) wide, caution
must be used in fastening the support to the sheet be-
‘cause the expansion of the sheet dve fo internal pres-
sures will tend to tene the fasteners out. Riser support
jntervals should be at one oF two story intervals, i,
12 £1 (3,66 m) to 24 1 (7.32 m), as suitable for toad
ing, Another method is (0 support the riser by its rein-
forcing. The load can be transferred tothe riser support
by angles or by rods.
6.2.11 Hanging System Selection
The selection of a hanging system should not be tak~
cn lightly not only because it involves a significant
52 HAG Duct Construction Standards Metal and Flexible » Third Esitlon oy
portion of the erection labor, but also because
‘quate hanging system can be disastrous. In any toulti-
ple hanger system, the failure of one hanger transfers
its load to adjacent hangers. [f one of these fails, an
coven greater load is transferred to the next, The result
is a cascading failure iN which an entire run of
det might fal
‘There are many banger alternatives, especially in
the upper attachments. Besides structural adequacy,
the eontractor’s choice of hanging system must also
take into account the particulars ofthe building sruc-
tare, the skills ofthe workmen, the availability of fool
ing. and the recommendations of the fistener
manufacturer, Because of these variables, i is g-
gested thal the hanging system be the contractor's
choice, subject tothe approval of tke mechanical etigi-
reer.
Pigures in this manual show typical hanger construc
tions. When special conditions require high safety fae~
tors of the ability (© withstand vibrations, individ
al concrete or steel attachments ean be specified to be
capable of supporting test loads equal to the min
rum rating listed when they are tested in accordance
swith methods described by Underwriters” Laborato:
