Piperack
Is a structure in the pipeway for carrying pipes and
is usually fabricated from Steel, Concrete & steel,
also provide protected location for ancillary
equipment (pump, utility station, )
Piperack consist:
Bent:
Connected shape frame
Stanchion:
The vertical member of bents are
termed stanchion
