Pipe Support Design Engineering Services

ENGINEERING AND DESIGN

The Binder Group Engineering and design team combine experience and technology in the design and development of pipe support products.

Design software includes Autocad 2D, SolidWorks 3D, and SolidWorks Simulation – Stress Analysis Software.

Supports and equipment are designed in accordance with international design standards such as :-

  • American Standard MSS-SP-58 & MSS-SP-69
  • British Standard BS3974 Parts I, II & III (as a guide)
  • ASME B31.1 Power Generation
  • ASME B31.3 Chemical and Refining

With the latest Stress Analysis and Drafting software, the Binder Group Engineering and design team can complete Pipe Support Design to suit the client’s application.

The Binder group is also a specialist in the manufacture of High Density Polyurethane (HD PUF) Cryogenic Pipe Shoes for the LNG industry. We manufacture our own tooling and pour our own moulds to customer specifications in various material densities.
