Oldest first- 0Hady Mohamed ·Let me give it a shot.
Diameter Inch is the unit of measurement for pipewelds.
If you have a particular spool that will have 7 joints, the total inch-dia for the welds of that spool will be :(diameter of the pipe/fitting x 7).
For example, a 6" spool with 7 joints would have a total inch-dia of 6 x 7 = 42 inch dia.
Hope that helps - 0Basir Ahmed ·Lets say you have a 10" pipe and there are three joints.
how would you quantify it.
there are two ways:
1. No. of joints i.e 03
2. Quantity of welding done i.e 10(diameter of the pipe to be welded) x 3(number of joints) = 30(Diameter Inches)
hope the answer is clear.

Hey Guys!There are instances
Hey Guys!
There are instances where we need to weld two pipe ends to form a bend. In this case, the welding lenght is longer than joining two pipes in straight line.
For example a 45deg bend is formed by welding two 16in pipe ends. Is the measurement remain the same as 16*1=16 dia inch?
How are we going to measure the pipe welds in this case?
regards,
Arnel

Hello John,It means the Size
Hello John,
It means the Size of Pipe which is Hoined to another Pipe of Same Size - Say A 10" pipe Pipe Has a DI - 10
So for Calculation/Report/Progress Purpose - When a 10 " Pipe is Welded with a 10" Pipe - Your output is 10 DI (Dia Inch)
Another example:
If a T Elbow is welded whose size 2 " - 10 " . Then your welding would be 10 + 10 + 2 = 22 DI as you have to weld the 2 10" Pipe by Another 10 " and the Other end of Elbow which is 2 " by a 2" Pipe.
