In the design of tubular structure to support glass process plant and pipeline equipment, a number of basic rules should be followed.

The structure should be stiff and should always be braced back to the nearest building or other stiff feature to give lateral support.

All Glass unit and their structures expand at different rate as a result of change in temperature. The unit must, therefore, not be subjected to any vertical restraint above the fixed point. Due to this guide are used which give lateral support without affecting vertical movement of the glass relative to the supporting structure. The distance between guide frames must not exceed 3meters.
