SCOPE 1.1 This Standard Practice establishes the material, design, fabrication, and inspection criteria to b

23、e used in the manufacture, selection, and application of standard types of bracing assemblies. 1.2 This Standard Practice presents recommended guidelines for providing stability in piping systems for protection against seismic, wind, and other dynamic forces. 1.3 This Standard Practice is intended f

24、or use on piping systems where formal engineered bracing design may not have been performed. Note that local and/or national building codes or regulations may supersede or augment these requirements. 1.4 This Standard Practice applies to rigidly connected metallic pipe only (welded, flanged, mechani

25、cal-jointed, etc.). For other types of pipe and pipe connections, contact the applicable pipe manufacturer for information. 2. OBJECTIVE 2.1 To serve as a bracing standard, that includes selection and application, for seismic, wind, and other dynamic forces. This Standard Practice can be referenced

26、in whole or in part if so designated. 2.2 To serve as a guide to proven industry practice during engineering design and writing of job specifications covering seismic, wind, and other dynamic bracing of piping systems. 2.3 To provide the erector with information on types of seismic, wind, and other

27、dynamic bracing to be used for specific applications and installations, where such information is not already provided. 2.4 To serve as a companion document to ANSI/MSS SP-58. ANSI/MSS SP-58 also provides definitions used in this Standard Practice. 3. APPLICATION 3.1 All piping systems subjected to

28、seismic loading shall be braced for seismic forces in accordance with the requirements of this Standard Practice, unless otherwise defined in local and/or national building codes or regulations. 3.1.1 The charts below identify which size pipes require bracing for designated seismic design categories

29、 and importance factors. Pipe Bracing Seismic Design Category (SDC) I p A, B C D, E, F 1.0 Not Required Not Required NPS 3 and Larger 1.5 Not Required NPS 2 and Larger NPS 1 and Larger (Source: ASCE 7, Section 13.6.8; with additional exemptions from Section 13.1.4) Trapeze Supported Pipe Bracing Sei

30、smic Design Category (SDC) I p A, B C D, E, F 1.0 Not Required Not Required *10 lbs./ft. and Greater 1.5 Not Required *10 lbs./ft. and Greater *10 lbs./ft. and Greater (Source: ASCE 7, Section 13.6.8; with additional exemptions from Section 13.1.4) NOTES: * Required if any pipe is NPS 2 and larger.

31、* Required if any pipe is NPS 3 and larger. * Required if any pipe is NPS 1 and larger. 3.1.2 The Seismic Design Category (SDC) and Component Importance Factor (Ip) are typically found on the project structural drawings or the project specifications. In general, the Engineer of Record determines the

32、se parameters. 3.1.3 Seismic Design Category (SDC) is a classification assigned to a structure based on its Occupancy Category and the severity of the design earthquake ground motion at the site, as defined in Chapter 11 of ASCE 7. BRACING FOR PIPING SYSTEMS: SEISMIC WIND DYNAMIC DESIGN, SELECTION,

33、AND APPLICATION 1 MSS STANDARD PRACTICE SP-127 3.1.4 All non-structural components are assigned a Component Importance Factor (I p) of 1.0 or 1.5 based on their function. The default value is 1.0, but is increased to 1.5 if the component is required to function for life- safety purposes after an ear

34、thquake, contains hazardous materials, or is in or attached to an Occupancy Category IV structure (essential facility as defined in ASCE 7) and is needed for the continued operation of the facility or its failure could impair the continued operation of the facility. 3.2 All piping systems subject to

35、 wind loading shall be braced for wind forces in accordance with the requirements contained in this Standard Practice unless otherwise defined in the local building codes or other regulations. 3.3 Bracing of fire sprinkler systems shall be in accordance with NFPA 13, and as required by the applicabl

36、e building code. 3.4 All piping systems subject to other dynamic loading shall be braced as required (see Section 4.25.3). 3.5 Bracing shall not be required for the following conditions: a) Where piping is supported by individual hangers and each hanger in the piping run is 12 in. (305 mm) or less i

37、n length from the top of the pipe to the supporting structure. Where rod hangers are used they shall be equipped with swivels, eye nuts, or other devices to prevent bending in the rod. b) Where piping is supported on a trapeze and the trapeze is supported by hangers having a length of 12 in. (305 mm

38、) or less. Where rod hangers are used they shall be equipped with swivels, eye nuts, or other devices to prevent bending in the rod. 4. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS 4.1 Piping systems shall be braced to resist both lateral and longitudinal horizontal forces. 4.2 Lateral seismic bracing shall be spaced at a

39、maximum span (L max) between lateral braces as provided in Tables 1 and 1M for the expected seismic short period spectral acceleration (S DS). 4.3 Lateral wind bracing shall be spaced at a maximum span (L max) between lateral braces as provided in Tables 2 and 2M, or Annexes C and CM for expected ba

40、sic wind speed (V). 4.4 Each run of pipe shall require longitudinal bracing. Lateral braces shall be allowed to act as longitudinal braces if the bracing is installed within the greater of two (2) ft. (610 mm) or three (3) times the pipe diameter of a change in direction, provided the lateral brace

41、has the capacity to handle the additional longitudinal load. 4.5 Expansion and contraction of piping systems shall be considered when designing and locating braces. Bracing shall not adversely affect the thermal movement of the piping system. 4.6 Each offset in a pipe run that is greater than 1/16 o

42、f the maximum brace spacing shall be braced. 4.7 The longitudinal bracing requirement for an individual location may be more severe than those addressed in Sections 4.4 and 4.5, as in the case of water hammer or sudden stoppage of flow. 4.8 Braces, where required, shall be installed at or as close a

43、s practical to a hanger location. 4.9 Where practical, bracing should be concentric. All parts and fittings making up the bracing assembly should act in a straight line to avoid eccentric loading on component parts and fasteners. 4.10 Because a brace may act in compression as well as tension, it is

44、necessary to size the brace to prevent buckling. This does not apply to cable braces, which act in tension only. 4.11 For individual braces, the slenderness ratio (l/r) shall not exceed 200, where “l” is the effective length of the brace and “r” is the least radius of gyration. 4.12 Piping systems i

45、ncorporating vibration- isolation and control devices may not be braced with rigid braces that would transmit the vibration to the building structure. 2 MSS STANDARD PRACTICE SP-127 The use of slip fittings or isolation grommets/washers, may be used in the design of the bracing assemblies to interru

46、pt the vibration path. 4.13 Cable bracing shall be in accordance with Figure 1. 4.14 Steel cables/wire rope assemblies shall be in accordance with ASTM A1023/A1023M. Stainless steel cables shall comply with ASTM A492. 4.15 When cables are used for braces, they shall oppose each other in order to pro

47、vide bracing for forces acting 180 degrees apart. Cables shall be tightened to remove slack, except as provided in Section 4.12. 4.16 A cable seismic brace should have independent cables attached from structure to the braced service (e.g., piping, etc.) to resist the opposing seismic force created d

48、uring an event. In the case of a lateral or longitudinal (traverse) only seismic brace, this will be two (2) independent cables. In the case of a four-way brace, this will be four (4) independent cables. A continuous cable simply wrapped around the pipe and attached to two structural attachment poin

49、ts is not an acceptable method of bracing. 4.17 A length of pipe shall not be braced to parts of a building (e.g., walls, ceilings, floors, etc.) that may respond differently during dynamic loading (seismic or other). For example, a length of pipe shall not be braced across building or structure seismic joints. 4.18 The last length of braced pipe shall be provided with a lateral brace at the end of the run. 4.19 C-type clamps, including top beam clamps such as ANSI/MSS SP-58 Types 19 and 23, used to attach pipe hangers to the building structure in areas
