The objective of this project was to complete a stress analysis on the piping system, resize the spring-can supports and modify the support style and bridge structures that hold it. The stress in the piping system could not be reduced to a satisfactory level using the existing infrastructure. The project was expanded to include the design of 5 new support structures and the review of loading on the structure for the vertical support.
The proposed solution by the client was to replace the existing 2 spring can setup with only 1 spring can at each location aligned with the centerline of the pipe. Rally delivered a solution of using constant effort supports for the three on the bottom and a triple spring on one side.
Additional scope included: reviewing geo-technical information and underground drawings. Assessment/potential modification of the existing vertical support, new drawings for 5 new support structures.
