A general understanding of math will probably get you by. You must be able to add and subtract fractions easily and quickly as alot of the work involves measurements that must be precise. A person wanting to advance should have a good understanding of Trig and Geometry. Alot of our layout work involves squares, circles, triangles, and rectangles. YOU MUST KNOW HOW TO READ A TAPE...

How do you measure the volume of 10m length pipe?
You need to know the pipe's radius (1/2 diameter) as well as the length. Then, use this formula: Volume = radius2 x pi x length
How many GPM through 1.5 inch pipe at 50 psi?
you need to know the viscosity of the liquid - molasses or alcohol?
How do you calculate pipe volume?
When you calculate the volume of pipe(or cylinder, as I prefer calling it), you need to know 2 things; the height of the cylinder and the radius of the circle(base of the cylinder). Then you use this formula; hpr^2 (height * pi * radius)
If you had a pipe of 2.78 inches in diameter how many inches long would the pipe have to be to hold one gallon of water. I need to to know how the equation would go about in addition to the answer.?
How about this plan: We'll explain how to solve the problem,and then you go ahead and get the answer on your own.The pipe is a cylinder.The volume of the cylinder is: (pi) times (radius of the pipe)2 x (length of the pipe)(Remember that the radius is 1/2 of the diameter.)With that formula, you can find the volume of any length of pipe. You know thediameter in inches, so the volume will be in cubic inches.One gallon is exactly 231 cubic inches. Find what the length of the pipe has to bein order to have a volume of 231 cubic inches.Go to it ! You can do it !
How do you chose pipe diameter for the irrigation system?
you need to figure out how much water per minute you need and get the minimum pipe diameter that will give you that. the bigger they are the more expensive they are, on a logaritmic scale.
