pipe supporting
(OP)
Dear sirs,
Could you mind introduce some websites that show erected pipe support in field? I have read some books about pipe support but I want to see pictures of various type supports which installed.
also I have a question:
What kind of pipe support do you prefer for 1" SS and Hot insulated pipe?

RE: pipe supporting
1" SS should probably be insulated to prevent any galvanic corrosion effect and hot pipe normally needs flexible supports / shoes to guide the movement of the pipe

RE: pipe supporting
With the information provided the only answer to your question is to use adequate pipe supports for the duty of the piping systems. No other answer can be given with the information provided.
LittleInch,
You would never use flexible supports (unless spring type supports for vertical displacements) for a hot pipe. The pipe still needs to be provided with adequate support such that support displacements (and pipe) are controlled. "Flexible Supports" presents the image of flimsy structural steelwork!!!!
