Mitered Pipe Calculator Pipefitter Layout Templates Build accurate pipe layouts faster—from field measurements to printable fabrication templates. Mitered Pipe Calculator is designed for pipefitters, welders, steamfitters, fabricators, and other piping professionals who need dependable layout calculations on the job or in the fabrication shop. CALCULATE MITERED PIPE LAYOUTS Enter your pipe dimensions and fitting requirements to calculate angles, spacing, cut dimensions, and ordinates. Clear diagrams and organized results help you transfer measurements directly to the pipe. PIPE FABRICATION CALCULATORS Create layouts for: • Mitered pipe connections • Mitered fittings and custom fittings • Mitered offsets • Mitered wyes • Concentric reducers • Eccentric reducers • Orange peel layouts • Custom pipe fabrication patterns DETAILED ORDINATES View center and edge ordinates for accurate pipe marking. Select the number of ordinates needed for your layout, including 8, 16, 32, 64, or 128 points. IMPERIAL AND METRIC Work using the measurement system that matches your project. Enter dimensions in Imperial or Metric units and display results in the format needed for fabrication. PIPE SIZE SELECTION Quickly select common pipe sizes and outside diameters without repeatedly entering standard dimensions. PRINTABLE PIPE TEMPLATES Generate fabrication-ready PDF templates directly from your calculated results. Available template formats include: • Full-size pipe templates • Letter-size tiled templates • Multiple-page templates for larger patterns • Printable mitered wye profiles • Printable reducer layouts • Printable orange peel patterns Print directly from your device or use Share/Save to store the PDF, send it to another device, or open it in a compatible application. BUILT FOR THE PIPE TRADES Mitered Pipe Calculator helps reduce repetitive calculations and makes it easier to move from measurements to an accurate fabrication layout.

ArcCalc is a simple and easy to use app for calculating all the parts of a circular arc or segment. Given any two values, this app will calculate for the radius, length, width, height, apothem, angle, and area of a circular arc. Very useful for carpenters, architects, handymen, machinists, welders, designers, technicians, engineers, do it yourselfers, and many more. This calculator utilizes simple and complex mathematics to do all the calculating for you. If you are one of those who went to calculus class and wondered where all that knowledge can be practically applied -- this is one of them. Features: * This calculator will do calculations for all twenty one cases when given any two inputs of the radius, length, width, height, apothem, angle, and area of a circular arc. All possible solutions are presented for the given two inputs. * Length units in feet, inch, meter, centimeter, millimeter can be specified for all inputs and values to be calculated. Angle unit can be in degrees or radians. * All calculations are automatically saved in the "Saved Results" window. Saved results are grouped by date of entry. Just swipe to delete an entry no longer needed. * Complete error checking function for inputs that are out of range in relation to the other given input. The calculator will give the limits for all inputs that are out of range. * Results can be shared by email. The Arc Calculator is the mobile app version of the popular online calculator "The Complete Circular Arc Calculator". Please check it out at https://www.handymath.com/cgi-bin/arc18.cgi?submit=Entry. Please check out also other calculators you might need at www.handymath.com and on the App Store. Additional Notes: The circular segment screenshots above gives a visual illustration of the parts of a circular segment. "Width" is used in place of the more proper term "Chord" as more people go with "Width".
