All:
Thank you very much for your responses. For those who asked, the load is applied vertically, symmetrically distributed around the centerline of the the verticle member. With regard to the large size of the pipes, this is driven by the fact that the verticle member will be approximately...

Distance between supports on horizontal pipe is 45 inches. Center of vertical pipe is 14 inches from one support. O.D. of both pipes is 12 inches and both have a wall thickness of 1 inch. Pipes will be secured to each other by continuous weld.

I have a horizontal pipe with ends that are secured vertically but free to float horizontally and need to apply a load through a vertical pipe (90 degree intersection) that is radiused to provide full contact, what are the formulae for calculating deflection and max tensile stress induced into...
Will someone please tell me the formulae for calculating shear and bending stresses in hollow pins. My old textbooks only discuss solid pins. Can you suggest a good reference book?
Thanks
