To calculate pipe takeoff, first measure the total length of the pipe needed, considering all fittings and bends. Then, determine the pipe's diameter and material, as these factors influence the amount of material required. Use the formula for the volume of a cylinder (V = πr²h) to calculate the volume of the pipe, adjusting for any fittings. Finally, convert the volume to weight using the material's density if necessary, ensuring to account for any waste or scrap in your calculations.

by multiplying the pipe size with the number of welded joints.regardsZH
measure the radius of the pipe. (half the diameter - the width of the pipe) then measure the length of the pipe. then use the formula pi (3.14) x radius2 x length. the answer is the volume in the pipe
pai/4xdsquare
diameter = 2 * radius
You need the inside radius (1/2 the inside diameter) of the pipe and the pipe's length. Then, use this formula:Volume = Pi x r2 x length
