There is some info in NFPA 15 concerning sizes of pipe used for stands and height limitations.
NFPA 15-2007, 6.3.2.2.1. Anvil has some pipe stanchions and saddles. There are probably others as well. Or make your own. I doubt you're going to find one that's actually "listed". http://www.anvilintl.com/ProductSearch/ProductInfo.aspx?productId=9611 Craig L.

Are there any approved pipe stands? 2. Outside of the general comment on support of pipe, is there anything specific on pipe stands in 2002? I couldn't find anything. 3. When calculating the weight of water-filled pipe for a riser manifold, am I correct in assuming that the equipment and the vertical piping would need to be considered? Has anyone actually done this?
