ABSTRACT:
A substantially horizontal pipe is supported within a U-shaped trough made of sheet metal. The trough has spaced sides interconnected by a curved bottom that define a width and a depth. A plurality of supports have curved surfaces for accommodating and supporting the curved bottom of the trough. The trough spans between spaced supports and has sufficient rigidity to support the pipe without allowing undue pipe deflection. The trough sides are tied to prevent splaying. The trough can be made in longitudinal sections having interfitting ends. These interfitting ends can be sealed so that the trough provides secondary containment for leakage from the pipe. A gap can be left between longitudinal sections of the trough to accommodate a branch pipe, and an adjustable bridge interconnects the sections for transferring stresses therebetween.
