Description / Abstract:
These requirements cover the performance of pipe hanger
equipment for use in supporting piping employed in sprinkler
systems, water-spray systems, and other piping systems used for
fire-protection service.
Requirements for the installation of pipe hangers and auxiliary
equipment and limitations for use of specific sizes of hangers and
pipe are included in the Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler
Systems, NFPA 13, and the Standard for Water-Spray Fixed Systems
for Fire Protection, NFPA 15.
These requirements cover design variations of hangers defined in
Section 5, and do not cover products fabricated from rods of iron
or steel with diameters specified by the Standard for the
Installation of Sprinkler Systems, NFPA 13, such as U-type hangers,
hanger rods, coach screws, and similar products.
