Hi,

I am working on a 68" Piping System in which I have to use expansion joint to ensure loads on nozzle within vendor provided allowable. Cofiguration of the system is as per attached file.
The bellow which I want to use has to absorb both lateral as well as axial displacement. For this I can use simple untied bellow, but The problem is I can not provide any support/guide on pipe to absorb pressure thrust.

Thanks in advance.
