Standard pipe uniform weight. START-PROF automatically considers overload factors based on standards upon running the analysis. Uniform pipe weight can usually be calculated automatically by pressing the "..." button and specifying the density of material, as:
External pipe diameter,
nominal wall thickness and
metal volume weight must be
input for this. Metal volume
weight
is approximately 0.00785 kg/cm3
The pipe weight will be calculated automatically if "calculate automatically weight of pipe" option is selected. The material density got from database in this case.
