pipe span design for weight supports
(OP)
Hi;
In piping support design specs & codes we see tables of pipe spans, as distance between two weight supports in a straight horizontal line cannot exceed this amount. Now the question is if the line is not straight and there is a change in the direction of line (for instance by elbows), what amount shall be used for pipe span.

Just look down the line, with your head at the top or bottom of the installed line. You can easily see if the droop exceeds 1/2".
