Pipe Vibration Assessment and Pipe Support Design
Project Description
- As a result of a pipe vibration assessment, we determined that additional pipe supports and modifications to existing pipe supports were required
Responsibilities:
- Pipe vibration assessment
- Design of new pipe supports to reduce pipe vibration
- P&ID and isometric record drawings
- Stress and modal analysis to ASME B31.3
- Report with recommendations
- Detailed design drawings
- Construction inspection
- As a result of this project, the following were achieved:
- Stopped pipe vibration
- Reduced nozzle loads
- Reduced peak stress from 235% to 64% of Allowable Stresses
