Have you ever come home from a day at trade school and thought to yourself that it would be nice to have a bunch of videos pertaining to the math and science of your particular trade. Well Tradestutor is here to fill that need. My goal is to make videos that give you that extra help during trade school which could make all the difference on your exams.
I had a lot of excellent instructors during my time in trade school but often I wished that their lectures could have been recorded so I could watch them later. The videos I've made represent those lectures in a format that's easy to absorb in a short period of time. Each video generally lasts no more than five minutes and gets right to the point.
I hope you enjoy the videos and good luck with your courses!!!!!!
I enjoyed the training, but where is the formula 0.414 derived from? Okay, I looked back at the comments and found where you answered my question. What might be good to explain here is that the center point of the elbows are at 22.5 degrees, in relationship to each-other.
👎🏼 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?
Just mock up your two pipes or get a fixed measurement of where your second pipe is going to be or where you want it to be then do exactly what he said, follow the equation. You are worrying about something that is irrelevant to the situation.
Also I get what you’re saying but just make the pipe a little longer than it needs to be man then it will be easier once you get the travel piece cut and mock up the second 45 and mark it where it needs cut
We generally go with 16th's here when dealing with the piping trades. This may differ in other parts of the country but here is just a standard we seem to go with. Take care and thanks for watching.
Thank you, this was simple and straightforward. I am currently in college trying to get my associates in Electrical power Lighting. At first I had trouble calculating the current flow but now I got the hang of it 👍
Whoa not sure what the hell you are trying to do here! This is incorrect information 100% .279” is closer to a 1/4” (.250”) than it is 3/8” (.375”). My question would be who would give you a measurement in this configuration being so specific as to go the thousandth, and then be agreeable to an 1/8” error rate?? 4.279’ is something I have never seen on a print. 4.279” maybe but never the former. I am a machinist by trade so it’s possible that this only applies to carpentry and iron workers. We definitely measure with different tapes. 1/8” (.125”) is a mile off in my trade where as carpentry and Iron workers can be out by 1/4” and still be in spec..
I was having trouble and now I'm.closer to understanding all this. Most videos don't EXPLAIN reasons why you do the math. THANK YOU SO MUCH. can you do more transposing for physics and trades math
