Hi, I like the direction you go with modelling. 1. No need to set rigid pipe - Mike described why. 2. If clamps are tight no movement is possible, so the friction factor does not matter unless you know the force acting on the pipe from the clamp…

Greetings, At this time, you are not modeling in the structure steel. Therefore, your current approach appears to somewhat valid: A set of guide supports, yes Suggest to confirm guide support settings (gaps , friction factor, etc..) Not sure…
