My rule of thumb over the past 4 decades has been the good old 
standard...weight of the pipe with water plus 250 pounds. I ALWAYS use two 
hangers at least on every full length. That's just old pipe fitter common sense.

Subject: Large Pipe Support Spacing 
I have a project where we are having a structural eng. design some pipe support 
for us. In 9.1.1.2 (3) it says the supports still need to be spaced per table 
9.2.2.1(a). If I have piping larger than 8” and the engineer approves it would 
be acceptable to space supports over 15’-0”?  Jerry Van KolkenMillennium Fire
