WORK PROCEDURE
6.1
Control of pipe supports fabrication (1) Raw material All material of pressure retaining parts shall be identified. Part number, material specification and heat number shall be marked on the piece to be cut, and it shall be recorded on the material identification record, and it shall be inspected by QC inspector before cutting. (2) Cutting Support materials may be cut to shape and size by flame or thermal cutting. Stainless steel materials shall be cut by mechanical means or plasma arc cutting, but flame cutting shall not be allowed. Surface to be welded shall be free from slag and excessive notch foreign matter. Pipe support assemblies may be acceptable if items having greater strength are substituted for those indicated on the drawings. (3) Welding Welding shall be performed in accordance with the approved WPS and drawing by qualified welder. These fabricated support shall be inspected and recorded using the ‘Daily Fabrication Inspection Report’ (Attachment 1). Field welding to pipes for the purpose of pipe support shall be limited as far as practical. Field welding for pipe support purposes shall not be performed on the following pipe materials. -
Materials requiring post weld heat treatment (PWHT)
-
Non-ferrous materials
All welding shall be done before post weld heat treatment Stainless material shall be segregated from normal carbon steel during fabrication and erection in order to avoid the contamination. (4) Marking and Tagging When welding has been completed, designate person will tag on each support body with stamped tags. The characters on such tags shall be a minimum of 3/16 inch and tags shall be securely attached to the assembly. (5) Painting and Stock When fabrication of pipe support is done, prepare the painting request form and transport to painting area. (Attachment 5)
5 / 20
Painting subcontractor shall paint and submit painting inspection report to contractor. Painted pipe support should be marked and properly identified and shall be stored in the designated area and preserved from dust and rust until issue to field erection. (Attachment 4) 6.2
Control of Pipe supports installation (1) General As a general practice, appropriate adjustment / modification / addition of support shall be made by construction contractor according to the actual field conditions, especially for small bore piping. All pipe support must be installed as per specification and drawing. -
Isometric drawing
-
Piping arrangement drawing
-
Pipe support standard drawing
-
Special pipe support drawing
-
Pipe support index
Piping shall be properly anchored and guided before pressure testing. Support should be fabricated and installed prior to the piping installation, and use of temporary supports is to be minimized. In case the temporary supports are required, the supports arrangement shall be made sure so that they have sufficient bearing strength and stable supporting for the piping system. All temporary supports shall be removed before hydro test. Field welded supports shall be set correctly in place and adjusted to the final position before welding. For sliding supports, bearing surfaces shall be sufficiently clean to ensure unrestricted movement. Clamp bolts on clamped shoe type support should be checked as per standard pipe support drawing. Support shall not be welded to the equipment unless otherwise specified. In case that stainless steel piping without insulation is resting on the steel structure, pipe rack or piping support directory, stainless steel plate shall be installed between piping and structure to avoid direct contact, even if this information is not shown in support drawing. (2) Concrete expansion anchor bolts Installation of concrete expansion anchor bolt shall be performed in accordance with vendor information.
6 / 20
(3) Locking devices (Bolts / Nuts) The support height shall be adjusted by construction team to the actual field condition. All threaded connections, except high strength bolts, shall be secured by locking devices to prevent loosening during service. Wherever possible bolts/stud shall be locked in place with double nut. (Jam nut) A nut tack welded to the bolt/stud shaft may also serve as a locking device and may be used except where welding is prohibited on the bolt material. (4) Installation of Spring hangers Installation of constant and variable spring hangers shall be in accordance with the manufacturer’s instruction, the design drawing and the procedure. Spring hangers shall be easily accessible after installation within the limits of possible, and the scales shall be unobstructed and visible. Field engineer should be ensured that the travel stops are engaged and maintained thus on all spring hangers until the piping system are placed in service, except during such time of checking and marking adjustments on the spring hangers. Spring supports shall be installed with the spring locks in place and the travel shall be cold set position. These spring locking plates or pins shall not be removed until hydrostatic testing and insulation of the piping system has been completed, but before the line is put into service, as directed by commissioning group. If the spring force on empty line will cause possible damage to connected strain sensitive equipment, the spring locks shall remain in position until the line is filled with the actual service fluid. The relevant support and support drawing shall bear the warning “block against empty position” and the locks shall be attached with the spring support during operation. The travel stops on spring hangers shall be engaged during filling, testing and draining of pipe systems for hydro test. (5) Floor of base mounted supports Grouting is required between concrete surface and structural pipe support attachment plates. All grout work shall be performed in accordance with relevant work procedure. Non shrink grout shall be mixed and placed in according with the manufacturer’s written instruction. (6) Wall or ceiling mounted supports Pipe support base plates shall be mounted flat against the wall or ceiling.
7 / 20
Irregularities on the wall or ceiling surface that prevent flush mounting on the base plate, such as fins, protrusions, and excessive roughness, shall be removed by grinding. Grouting is not required except when depression, grooves, holes or other cavities under the base plate that are not amenable to removal by grinding. These shall be filled with grout before mounting the base plate. (7) Hanger rod and turn buckle installation Threading of hanger rods shall be performed in accordance with ASME B31.3 para 321.1.5, thread designation UNC and, shall have a minimum of three full thread exposed when the nut is tightened on the hanger rod threads. Lubricant for threaded portion of rod is not required. For galvanized threads cut in the fields, the threaded portion of the rod shall have a touch-up coating. To compensate for pipe elevation discrepancies, hangers are usually provided with means to permit vertical adjustment during and after installation Threaded devices such as turnbuckles, clevises, etc. are acceptable, provided that after the adjustment the result is no less than full thread engagement. (8) Shoe or pads installation For shoes shall be welded to the piping with careful way avoiding any welding defects. Special care must be taken to the anchor points, as they are to be heavily loaded. Shoes pads for low alloy steel piping shall be of the same material as the pipes. In case of lines having shoe or saddle support, site measurement between distances of supports may be given and marked on the assembly. The supports are then welded on the spool assembly on the ground. In case of lines having guide or anchor the supports are to be welded in position. All supports / saddle welded to main pipe shall undergo the same testing requirement as that of main pipe. 1 { (9) For the installation of Embedded plate shall be followed in accordance to Concrete Works Procedure No.6423DC420-00-0080000 6.3
Welding and welding attachment (1) All welding shall be in accordance with approved welding procedure specification. (2) The material of the attachment which is directly welded to the pipe shall be as shown on the pipe support detailed drawings. (3) Welding must be carried out by qualified welder in accordance with approved welding procedure specification.
