1. Equipment Layout, Pipe Rack Piping & Shape
In general, how shall equipment layout be prepared concerning the Pipe Rack Piping & rack shape?
Explanation: In general, equipment layout shall be prepared considering a straight pipe rack, but other shapes like L/T/U/H/Z, etc. can also be considered based on the available area.
2. Total Width of Pipe Rack
What should the total width of the pipe rack include to account for future expansion/modification?
Explanation: The total width of the pipe rack shall include 20% extra space for future expansion/modification in the unit.
3. Width of the Rack and Number of Tiers
What are the permissible widths for the pipe rack, and how many tiers are allowed maximum?
Explanation: The width of the rack shall be 6m, 8m, or 10m with a maximum of 4 tiers.
4. Fireproofing of Pipe Racks
What should be done to pipe racks concerning fireproofing?
Explanation: Pipe racks shall be fireproofed (wherever applicable), with provision of insert plates for supporting auxiliaries.
5. Pipe Sleepers and Height from Grade Level
What is the minimum height of pipe sleepers from the grade level?
Explanation: Wherever piping is laid on pipe sleepers, the sleepers shall be a minimum of 300 mm high from the grade level.
6. Hard Surfacing/Gravel for Pipe Sleeper Areas
When should hard surfacing/gravel be completed for areas where piping is laid on pipe sleepers?
Explanation: Wherever piping is laid on pipe sleepers and outside paving area, hard surfacing/gravel should be completed before the start of pipe laying.
7. Design Considerations for Piping Run
How should racks be designed concerning piping run and clear headroom?
Explanation: Racks shall be designed to give piping the shortest possible run with due consideration for process, safety, flexibility, maintenance, and construction requirements and to provide clear headrooms over main walkways, secondary walkways, and platforms.
