RE: Steel pipe supports
Typically, a deflection of 2.5 mm (0.1 in) is allowed, provided that the maximum pipe stress is limited to 10.3 MPa (1,500 psi) or allowable design stress divided by a safety factor of
415, whichever is less.
See page 3-7 in the following document for the formula

Here is a link to an additional source. Note that formula is shown in the pdf's linked on the bottom of the page.
