made for borderline cases. The tables are approximate psi (See Thble 9-1) and 23 ft for a stress of 5,000 psi (See
values onlv for two-anchor oroblems. Table 9-2). If Point A is attached to a piece of rotating
equipment, you will need to have about 23 ft to make the
system more flexible. If the system is attached to a piece
of nonrotating equipment, a 13-ft offset will be sufficient.
To find the thermal forces Table 9-3 is to be used, which

Type D spring permits adjustment from the top, by lurning lhe nuls on the hanger rod against a piece ot
tubing. The tubing is securely welded to the spring cap. Type D spring is set above the supporting steet_
Type E permits rod adjustment from either above or below the spring.
Type F spring assembly is designed to suppofi piping lrom below, direclly lrom the tloor
Adjustment is made by inserting a bar into holes in the load column. and turning the load column as a jack

Type G trapeze type spring assemb,y is formed by welding lwo standard spring assemblies to the ends of
a pair ot channels. Type G assembly is especially adaptable tor use where headroom is limited, lo avoid
interference, or lo accommodate unusually heavy loads.
The assembly can be furnished wiih center to center dimensions, as specified by purchaser. When order-
ing Type G, divlde the total pipe load in half to select the proper spring size. Ihe travel range of the springs
remain unchanged-
