Pipe Shoes with Loads up to 75,000 lb.
Piping Technology & Products, Inc. designed and fabricated several pipe shoes with loads up to 75,000 lbs. respectively, for a 750MW power plant in Alabama.
The shoes are to support the cooling towers’ circulatory water system at the power plant. The majority of the shoes were designed for a 60″ line and 50,000 lb. load, and the remaining few were designed for a 78″ line and 75,000 lbs. of load. After extensive engineering hours and structure analysis, PT&P’s engineering department was able to produce a detailed design and 3-D model for the supports that would allow them to run electronic interface checks.

Chrome-Moly Shoe for an 18" Pipe
Piping Technology & Products, Inc., designed and fabricated a Figure 700 chrome-moly shoe for an 18″ pipe used to support high temperature lines at a power plant in Mexicali, Mexico.
The shoe’s length is 12″ and the pipe centerline distance was maintained at 17 3/8″ from the bottom of the shoe. The clamp was designed at 1065°F and the load was designed for 6965 pounds. The base and clamp plates are made of A387 GR.22 plate material and the u-bolt parts are made of A193 GR.B7 bar stock.

Pipe Shoes For 14" Pipe At A LNG Plant
Pipe Shoes For 14" Pipe
Piping Technology & Products, Inc. fabricated cryogenic pipe supports designed for a 14-inch pipe at a LNG plant in Algeria. The pipe operates below minus 50 degrees F, therefore the pipe supports were fabricated from three different materials in order to accommodate the low temperatures. The upper part, which clamps on to the pipe, was fabricated from a stainless steel plate that retains its strength at low temperatures. The middle section is a laminated phenolic block made from layers of wood impregnated under vacuum with a synthetic resin. A crossed orientation of the hard wood fibers is used to provide extra strength. The laminated phenolic block, which is a poor conductor of heat, was bolted to the bottom plate of the galvanized carbon steel.

Pipe Shoes for Cold Temperature Applications
The picture above shows a 54 inch “cold” shoe of galvanized steel with PTFE slide plates on the bottom. Inside the galvanized steel is bonded a layer of polyurethane foam which has been coated with a white vapor barrier. This polyurethane layer provides both insulation and support of the load at cryogenic temperatures..
