Added a few pipe supports for TCS chiller lines

Today Camilla and I added a few diagonal pipe supports to the TCS chiller lines under the output tube in the LVEA. These four lines were designed to be in a 2x2 stack, but tend to fall over flat due to only using horizontal and veritcal supports (first attachment). We added four in total so far, but still need to add some to the top of the cable/pipe bridge and maybe in the mechanical room. I didn't get any final pictures, but I'll get some when we finish the rest.

There was one place that we found that the pipe clamp had been pulled out of its base (second attachment). This seemed to be using a drywall anchor in the base rather than the designed hardware. Since we don't have the hardware on hand and due to access couldn't easily get to it, we pushed the anchor back in and placed the diagonal support next to it. This should help hold it in, but we'll keep an eye on it.
