Sometimes, fluids need to be transferred from the far side of the plant. We can’t leave the long-run piping without restraints, especially since the lines contain high-temperature fluids in the low ambient temperature environment.

The restraints on the long-run strait piping are crucial. However, due to thermal expansion and seismic events, the stoppers take excessive loads, making it impossible or expensive to design a special support.

By the expansion loops, we can reduce the stopper’s load by sharing. This will allow us to control the line better.
