Celtic,

Nice tank farm rack!
Wish I could claim it was mine :mad:

About 3 years ago, I did a job that had about seven different layers of pipe that all came up into a new sub-station we were building....that was a great photo-op....During the begining stages, it looked like a swimming pool with only the foundation walls, then came the 13kv feeds encased in concrete, a foot or two of QP, then came the 4" RGC to the gen-set, a foot or two of QP, etc...all the way up to the little 3/4" RGC's for the buildings recepts and switches.

That was a sweet job :smile:

(QP is quarry processed stone...a generic term for us...crushed stone that gets tamped down)

I think some of my keys(keyboard) are broken again
 
as nice as the pipe holders are(hehe) I want to see some conduit runs. I did residential for a few years and I just started com. and ind. last year and love bending pipe.
 
Yes Celtic, the days of super pipework have been challenged by the new "blow and go" MC cable. In the cabletray, and U/G it's way fast in comparison to the cost of P.V.C. coated rigid that we used to run all over the pulp mills. Still get to run a seperate tray for MV, but it ain't pretty, not like a piece of pipework. Larry the cable guy, would be in wonder at some of the pipework along the Columbia River mills...
 
I don't think any of that picture is EMT.

It looks to me like stainless steel process piping.

The bends are to sharp to be electrical raceways for what appears to be 2" to 3" pipe.
 
Thanks, I happen to work in plants that use a lot of process piping.

The type in the picture looks like it may be the crimp together type.

I bend quite a bit of pipe in residential, as well.... Sometimes it just makes more sense to do it.
