SINGLE PIPE/CONDUIT BRACING<br />
Single Rod Hanger Pipe Bracing<br />
1) Layout piping run and determine size and location of piping.<br />
2) Select vertical supports (single rod pipe hangers).<br />
a) Select type of hanger dependent on type of pipe, thermal expansion and contraction, etc.<br />
b) Determine maximum spacing of hanger rods and minimum hanger rod diameter.<br />
(Appendix 1)<br />
c) Select hanger rod connection to the structure based on structure type, rod size and hanger<br />
rod load from Appendix 1. Refer to section on hanger rod attachment for<br />
details (pages 39 thru 56)<br />
d) Engineer of record for a site specific project shall verify that the structure can support<br />
the connection loads in addition to all other loads.<br />

a) Select bracing details (transverse & longitudinal) from Figures 1 thru 8.<br />
b) Determine maximum spacing for transverse and longitudinal braces. (Appendix 1)<br />
c) Determine the type of structure connection required. (Appendix 1)<br />
Refer to section on structural attachments for connection details.<br />
d) Determine if rod stiffener is required. (pages 57 & 58)<br />
e) Engineer of record for a site specific project shall verify that the structure can support<br />
the connection loads.<br />
4) Review the design and revise layout where loads exceed the limitations of the hanger ro d s ,<br />
hangers or connection details.<br />
