Pipe Support Calculator
Calculate pipe support span, load requirements, and support spacing. Determine proper pipe support specifications based on pipe size, material, and contents.
Step 1: Pipe Properties
Understanding Pipe Support Requirements
Proper pipe support spacing depends on pipe diameter, material, contents, and operating temperature. Larger diameters and heavier materials require closer support spacing.
Step 2: Support Conditions
About Pipe Support Spacing
Proper support spacing prevents sagging, vibration, and stress concentration. Factors affecting spacing include pipe material, contents weight, temperature, and support type.

Support Spacing Formula
Maximum Span = √(Z × S / (0.75 × W))
Where: Z = Section Modulus, S = Allowable Stress, W = Total Weight per unit length. Based on ASME B31.1 and B31.3 standards.
