AS 2885.1 Pipeline Mass And Weight

Calculate AS 2885.1 pipeline unit mass (mass per length), unit weight (weight per length), and total mass.

The mass per joint can be calculated from the joint length. Construction quantities can be calculated from the total pipe length.

Pipe unit mass (mass per length) and pipe unit weight (weight per length) can be calculated for multi layer pipelines (dry empty, dry full, wet empty and wet full pipelines). The pipe diameter can be defined by either the outside diameter or the inside diameter. For multi layer pipelines, the first internal layer is the line pipe. The line pipe diameter and thickness are calculated from the pipe schedule. Change the number of layers on the setup page.

Use the Result Table option to display a table of pipe mass versus wall thickness for the selected diameter.

CALCULATOR : AS 2885.1 Pipeline Mass Per Length And Total Mass Schedule [FREE]   ±

Calculate AS 2885.1 pipeline mass per length and total mass.

The total mass can be used to calculate pipe joint mass (from joint length), or total construction mass (from total length). Select the pipe schedule (NPS or ISO), pipe diameter and wall thickness, or use the user defined option. Use the Result Table option to display the pipe schedule with unit mass and total mass for the selected diameter.
