Calculating a 45 degree offset piping system / Tradestutor

Is advance the same thing a "run"? Please need your help y im confused about the terms

👎🏼 you didn't explain how to account for the length of pipe used in the bend itself - where to start each 45° bend. That would be 5" for a 1/2" pipe with a 90° bend. What is it for 45° bend?

Can I just get this for laying out framing?

It is good to use inches or mm? or doesn't matter the unit of measurement?

Thank u now i know to offset 45degree angle

.707 in reverse also works

Can you help me piping foreman client interview

I like you your video

Nice....

Let's say that I want to apply a certain +/- degree of pitch. What's the simplified method then?

How you calculate your travel for different offsets from poin a to point b maintaining the offset between the travel pipe?

Thanks you so much!

You rock, teacher! I really appreciated thta.

THANKS FOR TIPS

But how do I find the length that I need to cut the pipe on the advanced side?

Thanks

Do you do tutoring online by any chance? I live in BC and am looking for a tutor for my Level 2 plumbing

But when you measure the advance in the field the 2 45 degrees angles aren't there, what you must measure then?

Nice video... Thank u...

Nice

Hi, I made an app to calculate this a few years ago called - Simple Offset Pro on Android. Hope it helps :)

I work in hvac hanging duct and i always struggled when it comes to using 45. Will this method work for duct work too?

👍

After finding the travel you still have to takeoff for 2 45’s to get your end to end measurement

Useful

More videos please

One of the only videos that I finally understood offsets you explained it so simple thank you

You get 24.04, but don't you have to subtract both your take offs for your 4t degree bends?

What if they aren’t parallel?

question: I am having trouble wrapping my head around this concept. What if I have to find a travel for a 45-degree offset and my offset is like 3 feet 4 1/4 inches? The two measurements for one offset are throwing me off

Is the travel piece considered vertical

Thank you for your videos I will be watching a lot of them

true! this was really educational, I am a plumber and thank you for the video! Roarr!

Thank you for explaining it so well!

Here is what I’m looking for . I work with ac ducts . So how do you calculate the the travel when it comes to ducts . Let’s say I have a 8x8 duct coming down the roof that has to be connected to a ventilation grill . The grill is also 8x8 . And they give a straight line of duct thats 8x8 and we have to calculate how to cut it so the the duct coming down the rood connects with the ventilation grill

Thanks for your help I really needed it here at work nobody wants to teach you anything they're scared you gonna take their job away.. pipeline field

Do you teach one on one tutoring?

Awesome explanation for that and your voice is very easy to hear and understand thank you so much for producing this video .

This really help with my duct work. Thanks man!

What is the purpose of calculating an offset? What's it for?? First year apprentice and I'm lost..

Hi, I like your video. Thanks

Thanks for sharing with us.
A question: this work for what size of emt?

I have another question regarding this, say you have a pipe running horizontal and the end of that run is a Y fitting, but then after the Y you need to install a 45 fitting. My question is, how do you find out the length of that pipe in between those two fittings to hit the center of what you're goin for? In relation to the diagram here, as an example (measuring from East to West direction from a wall) say the one pipe is 25" off the and then the center of a hole for a bathtub lets say is 60". Do you subtract those numbers and then divide that by 1.414 to get the length of pipe that is in between the Y fitting and the 45 fitting?

thank you for saving me

Why not just measure with a tape with fittings on ?

Hey wasshup I’m in the plumbing trades UA local and I had a lil trouble with the offset cause I’m class they move kinda fast but I watched this video and now I understand it a lot more I just wanna know do you know a website I could use to help me practice with like quizzes etc

great, thankyou sir.
