Pipefitter Pro is a calculator for pipefitters. It calculates offsets, elbow angles and spool lengths, and draws what it works out. Choose a case from the menu, enter the pipe diameter and elbow radius on the workshop keypad, then read the available results: angles, the spool between elbows, elbow takeout, arc lengths and caliper dimensions. CASES AND VIEWS • BACK TO BACK — two elbows, with either the angle or the offset unknown. • S TYPE — offset, travel or a fixed 45° option. • TEE OFFSET — calculations that include the branch diameter. • CALCULATOR — one elbow cut out of a 90°. • 3D — two elbows in space, set using the A, B and C dimensions of a box. • SLIDER / SLIDER S TYPE / SLIDER TEE — change the angle and watch the offset change. • 3D SLIDER — set the elbow orientation in a spatial model and read the angles, the insert and the live box dimensions. The box is a visual reference, not a cut length. Depending on the case, results appear on the Angle, Dimensions and Elbow tabs; selected cases add a 3D view you can rotate and zoom. UNITS AND INPUT Lengths in millimeters, centimeters and inches. Feet-and-inches notation and decimal or fractional inches are also supported. Choose 1/16 or 1/32 precision for inch fractions. Angles are given in decimal degrees. The workshop keypad and fraction picker help you enter dimensions; add frequently used cases to favorites. PIPE AND ELBOW DIMENSIONS The DIMENSIONS tile opens the built-in NPS/DN table. It contains outside diameters and centerline radii for long-radius and short-radius elbows. Add and edit dimensions, then use them in calculations. Save a list backup to a file and restore the list from a backup. BEFORE YOU CUT Pipefitter Pro supports the preparation of workshop work. Check the dimensions against your technical documentation and your shop procedures before cutting and welding.

WeldMap CWI Reports

Features
Read full description

Keep every drawing, weld ID, observation, photo, and reinspection history connected from the field to the final report. WELD MAPS BUILT FOR FIELD WORK Import an image or selected PDF page, place numbered pins directly on the drawing, and keep each weld ID tied to its location. Review status labels without losing the connection between the map and the record. INSPECTION HISTORY IN CONTEXT Record dimensions, observations, user-selected dispositions, specification references, welder IDs, follow-up dates, notes, and photos. Add reinspection entries without overwriting earlier work. PROFESSIONAL PDF REPORTS Generate a US Letter report with project and inspector information, drawing register, color-keyed weld maps, weld index, detailed records, photos, signatures, references, and inspection history. For example, an independent welding inspector can document a fabrication shop visit, then share one PDF with the client or general contractor as the project deliverable. PRIVATE BY DESIGN WeldMap works offline. No account is required, and there is no cloud sync, advertising, or analytics SDK. Project records, imported drawings, photos, and signatures remain on the device. Sharing uses the standard iOS share sheet. PROFESSIONAL JUDGMENT STAYS WITH YOU All observations, dispositions, references, and status labels are entered by the user. WeldMap does not determine code compliance, inspection acceptance, or fitness for service, and it does not guarantee inspection results. PRICING The free tier includes 1 project, up to 2 drawings, 25 weld IDs, 1 inspector profile, unlimited photos and inspection or reinspection history within that project, and complete PDF export with default branding and a “Created with WeldMap CWI Reports” footer. Pro removes project, drawing, weld ID, and profile limits and unlocks custom-branded PDFs. Choose $19.99 per month or $149.99 per year. Each auto-renewing plan includes a 7-day free trial for eligible new subscribers. After the trial, the selected plan is charged unless canceled at least 24 hours before renewal. Manage or cancel in App Store account settings.
