METHOD OF DIMENSIONING
PIPING ASSEMBLIES
METRIC CONVERSIONS
The conversion of quantities between systems of units involves a determination of the number of
significant digits to be retained. All conversions depend upon the intended precision of the original
quantity and are rounded to the appropriate accuracy.
Pipe sizes together with applicable wall thicknesses are not shown with metric equivalents.
The SI (metric) values where included with the customary U.S. values in this Standard are the
rounded equivalents of the U.S. values and are for reference only.
Metric units were derived utilizing the following conversion factor:
Conversion
inches to
millimeter
Factor
25.4
1. Scope
1.1 This standard covers the recommended practices
for dimensioning piping assemblies in a manner
that would enable the fabricator to furnish a
product meeting the geometry intended by the
design engineer.

A current index of the latest revised ES Standards, Technical Bulletins and Safety Training Guideline is available from
the Pipe Fabrication Institute.
PFI Safety Training Guideline, Standards and Technical Bulletins are published to serve proven needs of the pipe
fabricating industry at the design level and in actual shop operations. Hence, such needs are continually considered and
reviewed by the Engineering Committee of the Pipe Fabrication Institute to provide recommended procedures, which
have been demonstrated by collective experiences to fulfill requirements in a manner for Code compliance. However,
as the PFI Standards are for minimum requirements the designer or fabricator always has the option of specifying
supplementary conditions in the form of requirements beyond the scope of the PFI publications.
