Pipe Stress Analysis for Piping on Linked Bridge

Pipe Stress Analysis for Piping on Bridge have some notices as below:

·        The bridge shall be fixed on one side and sliding another side.

·        Limitation of Calculation Area shall include all areas on the Bridge, hook-up area, and a part of the connecting line on Platform (sliding side). The limitation shall be achieved 3 directions restraint.

·        Pipe loops shall be considered to absorb displacements between the Platform (sliding side) and Bridge.

·        Structural displacements for each support shall be linearly interpolated along the bridge.

·        Other lines on the same bridge should have similar routes and similar restraints to avoid clashing each other.

·        Stoppers of different lines on the bridge should be allocated to avoid concentrating loads on one structural beam only.

·        Check pipe clashing carefully in the bridge landing area.

·        Fatigue calculations shall be carried out for a design life.

·        Indicate shoe length clearly
