Brown Field Pipe Rack Design Overview

The document provides design specifications for pipe racks, including wind and seismic load calculations. It specifies wind speeds and calculates wind forces based on pipe rack width. It also provides pipe gravity loads and thermal forces at different spans. Maximum forces are listed for 6-foot and wider pipe rack bents at a 20-foot span.
