    1. This document provides instructions for calculating spool piece dimensions for single bend, double bend, and Z bend pipe configurations without specialized software. 2. For a single bend, the instructions show how to calculate the angle of the bend and lengths of the two run segments connecting the existing flange faces based on supplied measurements. 3. For a double bend, additional steps are described to calculate the lengths and angles of the two bends given a specified length and angle for the first run segment. 4. For a Z bend, similar steps are outlined to determine the lengths and angles of the two bends from supplied measurement and specifications for one run segment.

    Pipeline Metrology This is the math for calculating spool piece size and angle if you dont have

    software for it. Spool piece to be fabricated shown in blue. Hard line measurement flange to flange, from top dead center of leading edges, shown in brown. Angles A & B are read as offsets from 90 degrees if using jigs or are the measured angles between straight-line rope and line AB if using rope and hand probes.
    Single Bend

    1. Obtain angles A & B 2. Measure length AB 3. Calculate Angle C C = 180 - (A + B) 4. Convert A, B, & C to Radians Ar = 3.14 / (180 x A) Br = 3.14 / (180 x B) Cr = 3.14 / (180 x C) 5. Calculate leg lengths AC = AB x SIN Br / SIN Cr BC = AB x SIN Ar / SIN Cr

    Answers: AC & BC are the distances from the existing flange faces to the working point (C). Angle C is the angle the elbow will have to make. Fabricators will have to subtract flange width and elbow radius from each leg length. Next: Double Bends and Dog legs...
    Double Bend - Continue from step 5 above

    6. Decide how long you want Leg AC1 7. Decide what angle you want at C1 8.. Convert C1 to radians C1r = 3.14 / (180 x C1) 9. Calculate distance C to C1 CC1 = AC - AC1 10. Calculate angle C2 C2 = 360 - A - B - C1 11. Convert C2 to radians C2r = 3.14 / (180 x C2) 12. Calculate distance C to C2 CC2 = CC1 / SIN C2r x SIN C1r 13. Calculate distance C1 to C2 C1C2 = CC1 / SIN C2r x SIN Cr 14. Calculate leg length BC2 BC2 = BC - CC2

    Answers: AC1 & BC2 are the leg lengths from the existing flange faces to working points C1 & C2. C1C2 is the distance between working points. Angles C1 & C2 are the angles the elbows will have to make. Fabricators will have to subtract flange width and elbow radius from AC1 & Bc2, and elbow radius from both ends of C1C2.
    Z Bend - Start here

    1. Obtain angles A & D 2. Measure length AD 3. Decide how long you want Leg AB 4. Decide what angle you want at B 5. Convert A, B, and D to Radians Ar = 3.14 / (180 x A) Br = 3.14 / (180 x B) Dr = 3.14 / 180 x D) 6. Calculate angle C C=A+B-D 7. Convert C to radians Cr = 3.14 / (180 x C) 8. Calculate length AX AX = AB x SIN Br / SIN (Ar + Br) 9. Calculate length BX BX = AB x SIN Ar / SIN (Ar + Br) 10. Calculate length DX DX = AD - AX 11. Calculate length CX CX = DX / SIN Cr x SIN Dr 12. Calculate length BC BC = BX + CX 13. Calculate length CD CD = DX / SIN Cr x SIN (Cr + Dr) Answers: AB & CD are the leg lengths from the existing flange faces to working points B & C. BC is the distance between working points. Angles B & C are the angles the elbows will have to make. Fabricators will have to subtract flange width and elbow radius from AB & CD, and elbow radius from both ends of BC.
