Measuring Length of Pipe in Bends

This document discusses how to measure the length of pipe in bends. It provides a formula to calculate the arc length of a pipe bend based on the number of degrees in the bend angle and the radius of the bend. It also lists multipliers to use to find the arc length for standard bend angles when given the radius of the bend.

MEASURING LENGTH OF PIPE IN BENDS
The length of pipe (arc) in any bend depends on the following: (A) Number of degrees in angle of bend (B) Length of bending radius The length of arc in a pipe bend is measured along the centerline of the pipe. The radius is also measured as extending to the centerline. Use the formula below to calculate arc length. Length of Arc = No. of Degrees X .0175 X Radius of Bend
