Abstract

A pipe support is a steel structure which is used to support pipes inside a plant. It is used to transfer liquid between production equipment to storage facility. Optimization of steel pipe supporting structures in an oil & gas industry is complex and one of the important parts of structural systems for safe production processes. In this work steel pipe rack is designed for four different case i.e. one and two loops in the piping system and two different locations of braced bays. The results are further compared for the most optimized design.
