Y83 – J01
Design Manual for Pipe Support and

Hanger

Foreword
Pipe support and hanger, one essential part for the whole pipework, functions to support the pipe
weight, balance the media stress, limit the displacement and prevent the occurrence of vibration. Therefore,
the reasonable layout and correct selection of the pipe support and hanger during the design time can not
only improve the stress distribution of pipe and ensure a safety operation, but also can extend the service
life of pipeline.
To adapt to the development of industrial technologies and the ever increasing progress of pipe design,
the structure type of pipe support and hanger and their parts and components shall be continuously
updated and perfected, to gradually achieve the goal of standardization and specialty manufacturing. The
Design Manual for Pipe Support and Hanger is developed on the aforesaid principle by us. The Machinery
Manufacture Bureau and East China Power Construction Bureau of the Ministry of Water Resource and
Power Industry respectively designate Changzhou Electric Power Machinery Factory and Shanghai
Electric Power Construction Manufacture Factory as the specialty factories to manufacture the parts and
components of pipe support and hanger illustrated in the Design Manual and to develop the manufacture
drawings for such parts and components. The parts and components of pipe support and hanger
manufactured by the two factories mentioned above shall be supplied to the construction entities, so as to
change the previous lag-behind situation that the pipe support and hanger are processed and assembled
on the construction site. The specialty manufacturing of the parts and components of pipe support and
hanger can substantially improve their quality, and also can forge a solid foundation for the future pipe
construction.
Generally one complete pipe support and hanger comprises of three parts: pipe section, connector
and root. With reference to the design and practices in pipe support and hanger globally, the Design
Manual for Pipe Support and Hanger incorporates 24 types of pipe section, 36 types of connector and 24
types of root. They can form various structures of pipe support and hanger with different configurations,
which can satisfy the demand of pipe support under various circumstances. However, the factory
manufacture of pipe support and hanger in China is just at its startup stage, and we do not have sufficient
experiences in this regard, so any of your comments will be highly appreciated.

Design
I. Pipe section
1. The pipe sections under the Manual apply to the steam or water piping carrying the steam below
555℃ or water below 265 ℃, also apply to the piping transmitting oil and gas. The materials of pipe
section shall base on the temperature of media transmitted.
2. The Pmax of pipe section refers to the maximum bearing capacity permissible under the media
temperature, so the pipe section shall be selected based on the maximum possible load under the specific
work mode. When the structure identified with load level is selected, the pipe section shall be selected as
per the design load of pipe. When the design load of support and hanger of horizontal pipe exceeds the
permissible maximum load noted in the Manual, the pipe section can be selected with reference to Figure 1
below, except that the design span of the pipe support and hanger can be shortened.
3. When the deviation angle of hanger tie rod equals to or is less than 4o, the forces generated by the
piping horizontal shift has been considered during the design of strength of pipe section hanger. When the
hanger tie rod is too short and/or large horizontal shift of support may occur, the pipe support and hanger
shall be installed with due deviation, while the deviation value and direction shall be noted in the design
documents.
Figure 1
10
4. As for the support used for the high-temperature and high-pressure pipe and the horizontal force
shall be strictly controlled, the bottom side of support seat and the surface of sliding and guiding base plate
shall be equipped with polytetrafluoroethylene plate as the sliding material to minimize the horizontal forces
generated.
5. Some pipe sections in the Design Manual can be used as the pipe section for pipe support and
hanger; meanwhile they also can be used as the pipe section for shock absorption support and locking
support.
6. The welding type of pipe section (except for some structures) generally can be used for the pipe
carrying the media ≤350oC, which can be used jointly with the non-welding type of pipe section. To reduce
the works of site welding and expedite the construction progress, generally the non-welding type of pipe
section shall be preferred.
7. During the design of pipe support and hanger, the Assembly Configuration of Pipe Section,
Connector and Root shall be referred to.
II. Connector
8. Most hanger connectors in the Design Manual adopt the thread connection. The use of LH thread
shall be given reasonable care to avoid any assembly error.
To avoid the occurrence of thread loose, jam nut shall be used at the thread connection for locking.
9. When there is no tie rod equipped between the root and the pipe section to adjust the length,
generally a Turnbuckle shall be used at the point facilitating further adjustment as necessary.
10. 10 types of standard length are designed for each tie rod with different diameter in the Manual, so
the tie rod can be made with different length in decimeters. For example, the tie rod length is 2200mm.
When the diameter of tie rod is Φ12 – Φ20, ℓ =2000+200
When the diameter of tie rod is Φ24 – Φ80, ℓ =1500+700

Typically the tie rods are connected with connecting nuts, which has no function for length adjustment.
11. Under every circumstance the length of tie rod defined shall have an allowance for installation and
adjustment.

Example: When the diameter of tie rod is Φ48, if L=3136, then ℓ1+ℓ2 = 3000mm; ℓ1=ℓ2=1500 can be
selected, or ℓ1=1000mm, ℓ2=2000mm.
When the tie rod uses together with the middle spring, the length of tie rod shall be determined as per
the principle indicated below:

11. When the tie rod directly matches with the bedding plate of channel steel, generally a spherical
washer ring is used to minimize the local stress of tie rod, as illustrated in Figure 4. The exposed length at
tie rod end shall not be less than the dimensions shown in Figure 5.

12. W hen the tie rod length of hanger can not satisfy the horizontal displacement of piping, except
for the deviation installation to be used, a locking support can be allocated under the permissible pipe
stress. When the horizontal displacement is too large, a single direction or dual direction of rolling unit may
be added.
13. When the swing angle of stand bar of shock absorption support is rather large, a universal joint
shall be used, to improve the bearing capacity of the stand rod and root.
14. The constant force spring features the advantages of large displacement and stable load. In the
event that vertical displacement of pipe can not be satisfied after two long springs have been connected in
series, a constant force spring shall be selected.
III. Root
15. As for the root assembled with channel steels in the Manual, the strength calculation is made to
the ordinary hot-rolled channels. Therefore, the thin-wall channels shall not be used during the design;
otherwise, the strength shall be verified.
16. The strength calculation of various roots shall be carried out as per the bearing capacity specified.
In the case of guide support or fixing support, the strength shall be verified as per the specified bearing
capacity of the support.
17. The position, size and thickness of embedded members of root shall satisfy the geometric
dimensions, welding area and Weld Height of the root selected.
18. The welding type of root with embedded members shall be preferred for the buildings of
reinforced concrete structure. The threaded connection of root is only considered when no embedded
members are used.
19. Dual channels structure shall be preferred under the same load and same stress. When it is
possible, especially when the load is relatively high, the triangle bracket shall be preferred as the structure
type, and the Cantilever Beam shall not be adopted as far as possible.
20. Except where there is any special requirement for the structure, generally, no holes shall be made
on the sectional steel, to ensure the strength of structure members. When hole-drilling is imperative,
reinforcement measures shall be taken to the actual conditions.
21. When load shall be hanged on the lower wing of single channel structure, a reinforcing place can
be used for channel reinforcement.
IV. Others
13
22. The unit for the quantity of parts and components of pipe section and connector shall be piece. As
for the root, the Bill of Materials of Root annexed to the Manual shall be referred to for the specifications
and quantity of sectional steel.
23. Refer to the Tabularized and Assembly Legends of Pipe Support and Hanger annexed to the Manual
for assembly legend and tabularized representation of the pipe support and hanger assembled by pipe
section, connector and root.
Construction
24. All parts and components of pipe support and hanger shall be inspected when they are delivered to
the site, and the specifications and quantity shall be checked for their conformity with the design
requirements. The parts and components shall be classified for further storage, avoiding possible errors
during the installation.
25. The operators shall refer to the assembly drawing or the assembly sequences listed in the table to
assemble the parts and components of pipe support and hanger.
26. The operators shall always give reasonable care to the horizontal displacement direction during the
installation of pipe support and hanger with horizontal displacement, and the deviation installation shall be
carried out as per the design requirements.
27. When the pipe section of high temperature piping shall be welded with the main pipe, the welding
process and heat treatment shall be same as that for the main pipe. As for the clamp type of hanger for
vertical pipe, the bearing points of stand plate shall be welded on the same plane of main pipe section, to
ensure that each stand place can function to carry the pipe weight.
28. The following cautions shall be considered for the installation of pipe section and connector with
polytetrafluoroethylene plate.
①: Polytetrafluoroethylene plate, with a very low friction coefficient, is a good sliding material, which can
service under -180oC to +250oC. However, it can not directly contact the open flame, and thermal aging
may result in when the temperature exceeds +415oC, generating highly toxic gases, therefore the
temperature shall not exceed the limit for thermal aging, avoiding
the occurrence of intoxication. The machining speed of
polytetrafluoroethylene processing shall not be too high, and
smocking is forbidden during the process, t o avoid the respiration
of polytetrafluoroethylene powder. The polytetrafluoroethylene
plate shall be installed after all welding works have been
completed during the installation of pipe support and hanger,
otherwise such insulation as the asbestos cloth shall be used to
cover the polytetrafluoroethylene surface, avoiding the slag to be
splashed onto the polytetrafluoroethylene plate. Figure 6
② The thickness of the polytetrafluoroethylene plate attached to the pipe section in the Design Manual
shall be 1.5mm, and 4mm for the polytetrafluoroethylene plate attached to the connector. Refer to Figure 6
and 7 for the fixing between the polytetrafluoroethylene plat and the pipe section or connector.
The polytetrafluoroethylene plate and the fixing parts shall be delivered by the manufacturer together
with the pipe support and hanger.

29. The displacement indication side shall be placed at the direction facilitating the inspection during the installation of
spring assembly. The locating pin on spring shall be removed only after the hydrostatic test or before the startup of the unit.
When the locating pin is removed, the spring load shall be adjusted as necessary, to remove the pin freely.
30. One end of stud tie rod of standard length shall be short thread (RH thread) and long thread for another end (RH or
LH thread). The short thread end normally connects to the connectors, while the long thread end normally connects to the
Turnbuckle or the channel crossarm at the root and the dual tie rod of pipe section of horizontal pipe, to facilitate the
adjustment of tie rod length.
31. The thread shall be turned to depth desired when installing the threaded parts and/or components to ensure the
area of thread loading end. To prevent the loose of threaded connectors, the jam nuts shall be properly tightened.
32. When the plain nut and jam nut are used in series, the plain nut shall be located at the point directly carrying the
forces, while the jam nut shall only function for locking.
33. The length of stand rod of shock absorption support shall be adjusted under hot mode, to enable the spring action
of shock absorber can be self balanced. When the piping shocks during the running mode; the connecting nut can be
adjusted as appropriate to increase the shock absorption effect.
34. During the installation of I-steel clamp onto the under wing of I-steel, the nuts at both ends of the stud shall be
screwed to their minimum distance, to ensure the tightness of clamp and I-steel.
35. When it is necessary to fabricate the root and other parts and components, gas cutting process may be adopted for
the cutting of channel steel and steel plate, but the cutting surface shall be straight and smooth to ensure the dimension
precision. Mechanical hole-drilling shall be employed for hole-making, gas cutting is prohibited.
All burrs and flashes shall be cleaned, regardless of gas cutting or machining.
36. During the fabrication and construction of root, the welding shall be carried out as per the welding area and Weld
Height requested for each structure in the Design Manual shall be referred to. During the welding process of root and civil
works structure, to minimize the effect on the embedded members and reinforced concrete by the heat generated by the
welding, the welding time shall be as short as possible. If necessary, the welding shall be carried out as an interval time.
37. No holes should be made on the channel when the root of single channel structure carries some load. If it is
imperative to drill holes on the channel, reinforcement shall be taken as necessary. The stress points of single channel
structure, if permissible, shall be close to the channel web, to minimize the channel distortion.
38. When there is no embedded member for the civil works structure and the root of the structure member of civil
works shall be chiseled, the chisel area and depth of structure member of civil works shall be minimized as possible to
reduce the effect on the structure member of civil works.
o
39. A5 killed steel shall be used for the pipe section, connector and root ≤350 C in the Manual, no rimmed steel shall
be used. The change to the model, specifications and materials on site shall only be made subject to the approval by the
designer.
40. When the complete system of pipe support and hanger is installed, it shall be painted generally with silver or gray
anti-rust paints.

Instructions on the Selection and Installation of Support and Hanger Spring Appendix 1
I. Selection of Support and Hanger Spring
The support and hanger spring can be selected as per the Pipe Static Analysis Procedure and through
electronic computer. Moreover, the spring model and cold load setting can also be selected from Table 1-1
(applicable to where the load change coefficient ≤0.25) or Table 1-2 (applicable to where the load change
coefficient ≤0.35), based on the service load of pipe support and hanging points and the thermal
displacement and its direction.
The maximum service deformation listed out in the Table includes three deformations ZH1, ZH2 and
ZH3 for 75mm, 150mm and 225mm respectively.The Table also represents the relation of the spring service
load under 20 series of load to the deformation under service load, the relation of the spring relative
displacement within its service travel range (the distance between the deformation at maximum load and
minimum load) to the spring deformation, and the relation of the permissible maximum thermal
displacement to the spring deformation under upward or downward thermal displacement. In this Table the
economic range of service load is filled in the bold line column, while the economic range of service load
under downward thermal displacement is filled in the bold solid line column, and the economic range of
service load under upward thermal displacement is filled in the bold dotted line column.
This Table is established as per the load distribution of hot hanging zero adopted by DLGJ23 – 18:
Technical Codes for Engineering of Steam Water Pipe in Fueled Power Plant. If this Table is referred to
when using the cold hanging zero, the thermal displacement upward shall search for the values at
downward, and the thermal displacement downward shall search for the values at upward.
Application example:
Example 1: Service Load Pgz= - 1365 kgf, thermal displacement ΔYt = - 40mm, load change
coefficient C≤0.35.
a. The service load of #11 Spring is found to be 1365 kgf by searching in the economic range of
service load under thermal displacement downward in the column of middle load in Table 1 -1.
b. Find the load change coefficient ≤0.35 by searching to the right of 1365 kgf load. It can be found in
the thermal displacement downward that the maximum permissible thermal displacement of ZH 2
is 45.5mm, acceptable for thermal displacement of 40mm. Therefore, ZH211 spring can be
selected.
c. It can be found that the deformation under service load is 130mm by searching to the right of 1365
kgf load. And then it can be calculated that the deformation under installation load is 130-40=90
mm.
d. It can be found that the load of #11 spring (i.e. the cold load setting) is 945 kgf by searching to the
left of 90mm in the deformation column of ZH2.
128
Example 2: Service Load Pgz= - 1000 kgf, thermal displacement ΔYt = +36mm, load change coefficient C
≤0.25.
a. The service load of #19 Spring is found to be 10080 kgf by searching in the economic range of
service load under thermal displacement upward in the column of load in Table 1 -1.
b. Find the load change coefficient ≤0.25 by searching to the right of 10080 kgf load. It can be found
in the thermal displacement upward that the maximum permissible thermal displacement of ZH3 is
36mm, just acceptable. Therefore, ZH319 spring can be selected.
c. It can be found that the deformation under service load is 39mm by searching to the right of 10080
kgf load. And then it can be calculated that the deformation under installation load is 39+36=75
mm.
d. It can be found that the cold load setting of #19 spring is 12600 kgf by searching to the left of
75mm in the deformation column of ZH3.
Example 3: Service Load Pgz= - 44 kgf, thermal displacement ΔYt = +8mm, load change coefficient C≤
0.35.
a. The service load of #2 Spring is found to be 44.2 kgf by searching in the economic range of
service load under thermal displacement upward in the column of load in Table 1 -2.
b. Since it is required that the thermal displacement shall be less than minimum value of the
maximum permissible thermal displacement within the economic range of service load of ZH 1
spring, and a spring less grade will be selected. Therefore, it can be found out that the maximum
permissible thermal displacement of ZH 101 spring under 44 kgf of service load is 9mm, still
having an allowance.
c. It can be found by searching the displacement column of spring #01 – 05 that their displacement
under service load is 36mm, and it can be calculated that the displacement under installation load
is 36+8=44mm.
d. By searching for the #01 spring to the left of 44mm in the displacement column ZH1, it can found
that the cold load setting is 49.3 kgf.
Example 3: Cold hanging zero: Service Load Pgz= - 3625 kgf, thermal displacement ΔYt = +72mm, load
change coefficient C≤0.25.
a. Since thermal displacement upward is produced by cold hanging zero, the searching shall be
made within the economic range of service load under the thermal displacement downward in the
load column of Table 1-1. It can be found that the service load of #14 spring is 3600 kgf and 3650
kgf, and their corresponding maximum permissible thermal displacement (ZH3) are 54mm and
54.7mm respectively, which is unacceptable, so two spring of ZH 214 shall be connected in series.
It can be calculated by the interpolation that the maximum permissible thermal displacement is
72.5mm, which can be selected.
b. It can be found that the displacement of ZH 214 spring under service load is 75mm by searching the
displacement of #06 – 20 springs, and then it can be calculated that the displacement under hot
status is 75 – 72/2 = 39.
c. It can be found that the displacement of #14 spring under service load is 2700 kgf and 2750 kgf by
searching to the left of 38mm and 40mm displacement in ZH2, and it can be calculated by
interpolation that the service load under hot is 2725 kgf.
As for the cold hanging zero, it shall be noted that the spring selection can be done by the step a
only, if it is unnecessary to consider the service load and deformation of spring under hot status.

II. Setting-Type Spring Assembly (TH1, TH2 and TH3)

A. Design Selection
1. The setting-type spring shall be selected through the Pipe Static Analysis Procedure and through
electronic computer.
2. When the setting-type spring assembly shall be selected based on the service load at the pipe
support and hanging point, the thermal displacement and its direction, the selection can be made directly
from Table 1-1 (applicable to where the load change coefficient ≤0.25) or Table 1-2 (applicable to where the
load change coefficient ≤0.35).
3. When the diameter of the tie rod assembled with the hanger spring assembly differs from the
diameter of the hanger rod of the pipe section and bottom section, generally the diameter of tie rod
specified for the spring assembly shall allow the use of eyenut (DJ1), U-nut (DJ2) and double-eye hanger
plate.
4. The pipe seat connected with the support spring assembly shall be equipped with
polytetrafluoroethylene plate.
B. P.O. Requirements
When the installation entity intends to place a purchasing order to the manufacturer, the installation
entity shall refer to the applicable design drawings to clearly define the followings:
1. Project name;
2. Pipe name and code;
3. Support and hanger number;
4. Grade or model of spring assembly;
5. Load settings of spring assembly (i.e. the cold load of one spring assembly);
6. Thermal displacement and directions (i.e. the displacement of one spring);
7. Quantity of springs in series and in parallel.
C. Product Acceptance
1. Each spring assembly shall be inspected by the technology department of manufacturer as per the
applicable technical conditions and other technical specifications, and the product shall be attached with
quality certificate.
2. The Buyer shall inspect the spring assembly delivered on sampling basis. The sampled products
shall be at least 2% of each batch quantity, but not less than 5 pieces. In the event that one sample is
unacceptable, then the inspection shall be made on the double quantity of spring assemblies. If one
sample is still unacceptable during the re-inspection, then such batch of spring assembly shall not be
accepted.
3. The manufacturer shall rework or repair the unacceptable batch of spring assembly, and after such
rework or repair being completed, the spring assembly can be delivered again for quality inspection.
D. Installation Adjustment:
1. Before the actual installation, the pipe name or code and the number of support and hanger shall
be inspected as per the installation drawings.

132
Appendix 1
3. Always take following cautions when the spring assembly is used in parallel.
(1) Check the spring characteristics and locking load of the two spring groups matched by the
manufacturer for their consistency;
(2) The distance between the pipe and the two hanger rods (or support points) shall be equal, as
illustrated in Figure 1 – 3, i.e. ℓ1=ℓ2, to avoid any possible obliqueness of the support or hanger,
or hanger rod bending;
(3) In the event that two spring assemblies with big difference in spring characteristics must be used
due to some reasons, the distance between the hanger rod (or support points) shall be duly
changed. The specific dimensions may be calculated as per the formula illustrated below:
or
Fig. 1-3
P1 and P2 respectively represent the actual spring rigidity of the two spring assemblies.
4. After the pipe insulation (water shall be filled for the water pipe) , turn the turnbuckle to adjust the
load, to enable the pre-tightened locating pin at its horizontal position (i.e. the actual load of spring load
equals to the designed cold load of pipe, until it can be removed easily. If the round end of locating pin
declines downwards, it suggests that the actual load is less than the specified value; while when the round
end of locating pin ascends upwards, it suggests that the actual load is bigger than the specified value.
5. During the hydrostatic test or as necessary, the spring assembly can be locked to use the rigidity
of support and hanger.
E. Operation Check
1. Check before operation
(1) Remove all locating pins of the spring assemblies and store them further use;
(2) Check the indicator position, and make sure that it is at the position of cold load;
(3) Check the spring assemblies during their installation for any overload, local deformation or
damage.
2. Check during operation
(1) During the pipe displacement, check the spring assembly for any unsmooth moving or jamming;
(2) Check the indicator position to make sure that it is at the position of hot load, if a big deviation is
found, the position of hot mark shall be adjusted.
133
III Selection of Spring Shock Absorber
The spring shock absorber functions to absorb the shock through the spring rigidity and the initial force
of spring pre-compression, so as to reduce or eliminate the periodic vibration or instantaneous impact
generated by the irregular flow of media transported, wind action, water (or steam) hammer or earthquake.
This can enhance the intrinsic vibration frequency of pipe system, free from the frequency which can force
the occurrence of pipe vibration due to external disturbance, so as to avoid the resonance vibration of pipe
and to reduce the additional stress produced by vibration.
The specifications of the shock absorber spring depend on the force needed to prevent the pipe
vibration. If the anti-shock force can be calculated based on the pipe mass, rigidity and the external force or
impact periodically exerted on the pipe and based on the pipe dynamic analysis, the specifications of shock
absorber spring shall be determined as per the precision of the calculation result, and the initial force of the
spring pre-compression also shall be calculated. Otherwise, the specifications of shock absorber spring
shall be selected from Table 1 – 3 based on the nominal diameter of pipe.

or other or other
JH106 special JH206 special
condition condition
The total displacement at axial direction of shock absorber spring generated by the spring
pre-compression and the pipe cold displacement shall be less than the deformation F2 under maximum
service load of shock absorber spring. If the spring pre-compression equals to the deformation F1 under
minimum service load, then the displacement at axial direction of shock absorber spring generated by the
pipe cold displacement shall not exceed the maximum service travel h.
When the spring shock absorber operates under hot status, and if no pipe vibration is presented, then
no force shall be exerted on the pipe. When the pipe is under cold (or not in use), the cold compression
displacement can increase the deformation of spring shock absorber, so the spring shock absorber will
produce an additional force to the pipe. The additional force exerted on cold pipe depends on the spring
pre-compression and the spring displacement at axial direction resulting from the pipe cold displacement.

Application example:
Take the spring shock absorber 1HV – 2A, 2B and 2C for the main steam pipe in the internal
power plant of Shanghai Baosteel Group (DWG. No.: H38 – 90716 – 15 – 27) as the example,
and modify the actual dimensions of the shock absorber spring TH6, long pipe clamp SD1,
universal joint GH4 and other parts for pipe support and hanger in our Design Manual for Pipe
Support and Hanger, as shown in Table 1 – 1.
1. Select the number of shock absorber spring to the O.D. of pipe.
136
9) Appendix 1
Normally the fueled power plant does not perform the pipe dynamic calculation, so it can be
found by searching Table 1 – 3 based on the O.D. of main steam pipe Φ558.8: Use #04 shock
absorber spring.
2. Calculation of axial displacement and additional force generated by the pipe cold
displacement
2.1 1HV – 2A
For easy calculation, the IHV – 2A connection dimension drawing of Drawing 1 – 2 shall be

10) Appendix 1
It can be found that the axial displacement of IHV – 2A resulting from pipe cold displacement
is 48mm, so the JH1 with its maximum service travel of 75mm shall be selected.
By searching Table 1 – 4, it can be found that the load Pa is 1314 kgf when the displacement
of JH 104 shock absorber spring is 48mm. Then the three component forces of P AX, PAY and
PAZ acting on the pipe can be calculated based on the space angle of the axis of the shock
absorber spring.

IV. Instructions on the Spring Shock Absorber

A. Design
1. The spring shock absorber shall be selected as per the Pipe Static Analysis Procedure and
through electronic computer.
2. The spring shock absorber generally shall be directly connected with the root or pipe section. The
pipe section connected with the shock absorber support shall use the special pipe clamp of J type shock
absorber of SD1 – ; the root shall use the universal joint of GH4; when the connecting rod is less
than 500mm long, the double threaded tie rod LG1 or turnbuckle LG5 also can be selected; otherwise the
double threaded tie rod LG1 and support rod LG3 shall be selected for use.
3. The length of tie rod or support rod shall be calculated as per the position of pipe under hot status.
4. The root is normally determined at cold status (Note: which refers to the installation line but not the
design line).
B. Installation Adjustment
1. Before installation, the model and specifications of spring shock absorber used by the shock
absorber support shall be verified to the pipe installation drawing.
2. After the installation of pipe and its support and hanger, the pipe section and connector shall be
installed as per the installation drawing of pipe shock absorber support or the details table of support and
hanger. Before welding the universal joint to the structure of civil works, make sure that the axis of support
rod passes through the pipe centerline, avoiding any possible obliqueness.
3. Under cold status adjust the support rod or turnbuckle as per the installation drawing of shock
absorber, to ensure that the displacement and its direction of spring shock absorber equals to the
displacement and direction of pipe from hot status to cold status.
C. Adjustment and check during operation
1. Operation check
(1) During the operation, check the position of displacement pointer of spring shock absorber. If the
pointer deviates from the zero position, adjust the support rod or turnbuckle, until the time when the pointer
returns back to the zero point.
(2) If it is found that the pipe still vibrates during the operation, it indicates that the anti-shock force of
the spring shock absorber is too small, and then the following steps shall be referred to for further
adjustment:
i) Adjust the support rod or turnbuckle to increase the pre-tightening force of spring, until the pipe
vibration has been dramatically reduced;
ii) Turn the thrust bold of shock absorber to enable its top contact the spring gland;
iii) Tighten the nuts at both ends of the spring shock absorber.
iv) If the pipe still vibrates, repeat the above steps to increase the anti-shock force of the shock
absorber.
Important notes: The maximum permissible travel of the adjusted shock absorber shall be larger than the
axial displacement of shock absorber spring produced by pipe cold displacement.
2. Off-operation check
All parts and components of the shock absorber shall be carefully inspected when the operation stops
for first time. If blocking or jamming is found, carry out adjustment as necessary.

Some Calculation Formulas of Pipe section and Root Appendix V
In this Manual, the fixing brackets for pipe section and root have constraint in six freedom of the pipe;
actually they are also influenced by the temperature of media transported, the layout of pipework and other
unknown factors, so the thermal expansion moment and structure load and their directions are different
from each other. They can form numerous combinations. To reasonably select the fixing brackets, the
following formulas are recommended for the brackets calculation, so as to facilitate the Strength Verification
(to calibrate its constraint capacity) carried out by the designer after the type of fixing brackets are selected.
I. Fixing Brackets of Pipe section
(1) Fixing Brackets for Vertical Pipe (CZ4)
Ⅰ Objectives and Mechanic Model for Strength Verification:
1. The objectives of Strength Verification are the pipe section weld and root weld of the bracket
holder.
2. The fixing bracket is a system of space forces, but considering that each two of the four holders
are symmetric, which may be deemed as the composition of the two independent systems of forces
respectively within XY plane and ZY plane. During the Strength Verification, the calculation shall be made
only with the one to bear more forces.
3. In the calculation formula indicated below, it is presumed that the forces exerted on the XY plane
are inferior to the ZY plane. If it differs from the actual situation of application, it is necessary only to change
the MZ and PX to MX and PZ.
Refer to Figure 5 -1 and 5 – 2 for the structure diagram and stress analysis diagram of vertical fixing
