B4
piping class or rating. ( Refer SAES-L-108) Para. 5.9

Supports: For above ground installation, the piping system shall be analyzed
to foresee whether temporary supports are required during hydrostatic
testing to limit the sustained longitudinal stresses to acceptable limits by the SAES-L-150,
B5
code. If temporary supports are found to be needed and more economical Para. 6.3
than permanent supports, this should be highlighted in the hydrotesting
procedure.

Expansion joints and spring hangers or spring supports shall be provided

SAES-L-150,
B6 with temporary restraints where needed to prevent excessive travel or
Para. 6.4
deformation under the test loads.
