The app is used in the industrial pipe construction. (American Standard ASME B36.10/ B16.9) Functions: Calculation (imperial and metric) of offsets and weight calculation of pipes, offsets and profiles. All nominal diameter and fittings are provided, so it will be very easy for you to solve complex calculations quickly. Even if you put in false information, you can not get wrong solutions. This way you can save material, time and stress. The App is your help in a hectic and busy working day. - 28 offset calculations (8 offset types with 2 or 4 interrupts) - Given nominal diameters (NPS 1-40/DN 25-1000) according to ANSI/ASME with outside diameter (exemple NPS 5/DN 100- 4.5in/114,3mm), - Calculation with lenght or elbow angle - 2 types of elbow - Manual input of elbow radius - Offsets with tee - Individual gap - Detailed help and description - History of your calculations Results - Cut length - Elbow angle - Inside and outside cutting values of the elbow - Take off, chord - Installation length of offset - Calculation of offset weight Weight calculation of - Pipes, - 2 types of elbow - Channels (C3-C10) - H Beams (W4-W10), - Manual inputs. Single weights will be added to the list, so that you can use the weight of the construction units to choose the right lifting gear.
