SCOPE OF WORK:
-

To check the structural adequacy of the sizes of the piping supports.

ASSUMPTION:
-

OTHER INFORMATIONS:
No of pipes and diameter
-

For External pipe support wind load is to be consider.

Concrete mix. In foundation = M
Distance between the pipe lines are =
450 mm

NOTE:
-

This design is based on the given data and the assumptions made. If any change
is envisaged this design is to be reviewed.

This design is not to be adopted for other side conditions / locations / similar
cases.
