Calculating Piping Offsets is designed to familiarize participants with methods for calculating dimensions and angles for piping offsets. After completing this course, participants should be able to use right triangles and basic formulas to calculate fitting angles, complementary angles, and Offset, Run, and Travel dimensions for various simple and rolling offsets.
Identify the properties of a right triangle and how they can be used to calculate a piping offset
Explain how to calculate the travel dimension of a piping offset, given the run, an offset dimension and/or a fitting angle
Explain how to calculate a fitting angle, given a run and an offset measurement
Describe the general steps involved in calculating the travel for a 45 degree rolling piping offset
