Hi all. Kindly refer attached picture for details. I have these two chilled water pipes that need to be located at certain location and passing below structure beam. My question is, is there any standardized way of doing it? My options would be:
1) Resting the pipe on ground (Do we need to prepare bedding or just simply resting it on ground?)
2) Hanging the pipe by placing a hook shaped reinforcement bar attached to the formwork
3) Other options?

Thanks.

Einstein gave the same test to students every year. When asked why he would do something like that, "Because the answers had changed."
 
Locating any pipe where you can't ever get access to it again means you need to doo everything possible to protect it, so a nice bedding material of sand, double wrap the pipe to reduce external corrosion and think about a sleeve so if you ever get to it you can slide it out.

But this is not a good picture - a sketch or drawing would be a lot better to understand what you mean as that pipe looks a lot bigger than 150mm....

Remember - More details = better answers
Also: If you get a response it's polite to respond to it.
 
I see. Actually the sketch is an idea of how its gonna lay on site. Thanks for your input anyway. Highly appreciate it
