ARRANGEMENT FOR ADJOINING A SUPPORT STRUCTURE TO A PIPE
An arrangement for use in adjoining a support structure to a pipe that passes through the support structure. The arrangement comprises a mount attachable to the support structure. Radial bellows are connected to the mount. The bellows are arranged in use to extend circumferentially around a pipe and be connectable thereto such that a volume is defined by the bellows, mount and pipe.

Thermal expansion compensating device and method of use
A thermal expansion compensating device has a conduit with a first opening and a second opening for connection to a first pipe and a second pipe of a hot water system, respectively, the first and second pipes being formed by removing a section from a length of pipe of the hot water system. A pre-tensioning force is applied to the device to axially displace the first opening from the second opening until after connection of the openings of the pipes. A resiliently deformable pipe segment defines a portion of the conduit between the first opening and the second opening and is resiliently deformed to a tensioned position by the application of the pre-tensioning force. Once the hot water system is activated, the pipes axially thermally expand such that the first opening moves towards the second opening and the pipe segment moves from the tensioned position towards a rest position decreasing the stress on the device.

Apparatus and method for controlling conduit
A conduit-balancer link system may be used to control the path of conduit in a robotic welding process. The conduit-balancer link system includes a first member having a leg portion with an interior surface and an outer portion attachable to a balancing member. The conduit-balancer link system also includes a second member having a generally u-shaped outer profile with two parallel extending members. A conduit is routed between the interior surface of the first member and an inner portion of the second member. Fasteners are used to secure the second member to the first member with the conduit routed between.

SUPPORT FOR EXHAUST STACK
A support for an exhaust stack comprises a first bracket including a first base joining a first extension and a second extension, the first base being fixed to the vehicle, and a second bracket including a second base joining a third extension and a fourth extension, the second base being fixed to the exhaust stack. A member is disposed between the first base and the second base. The member has a first end and a second end. A first fastener is accepted by the first end and extends between the first extension and the second extension. A second fastener is accepted by the second end and extends between the third extension and the fourth extension.
TENSION MOUNT IMPROVEMENTS
The present disclosure relates to a tension or hanging mount for engineering services, including but not limited to components of heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems. In one aspect, the tension mount comprises at least a base portion and a mount portion which depends from the base portion by hanging, wherein each of the base portion and the mount portion comprise a substantially rigid, non-flammable structural support element, and wherein at least one of these substantially rigid, non-flammable structural support elements is at least partially covered in a cushioning material in regions at or near to where the base portion and the mount portion are in contact with each other, and wherein in use, the mount portion is not dropped by the base portion even if the cushioning materials are consumed by a fire.
Simultaneous fracturing high-pressure lines
The disclosure provides a manifold comprising a trailer and a piping system. The piping system is disposed on top of the trailer, wherein the piping system comprises a low-pressure system and a high-pressure system. The low-pressure system comprises a first set of conduits and a second set of conduits. The high-pressure system comprises a first conduit line disposed at a first side of the trailer, a second conduit line disposed at a second side of the trailer, wherein the second conduit line is fluidly isolated from the first conduit line, and a plurality of arms disposed along each of the first conduit line and the second conduit line.
