    This document provides instructions for calculating the pipe span and stress for a given pipe material using common engineering formulas. It lists the required input parameters of weight per unit length, section modulus, moment of inertia, pipe span, and modulus of elasticity. An example calculation is shown for a 4" carbon steel pipe with a span of 7 meters, yielding a deflection of 9.338mm and stress of 22.17 N/mm2, within allowable limits.

    Pipe Span Calculation (By Piya K.

    )
    (Formulation refer from Pipe Stress Handbook in SI Unit)
    Enter weight per unit lenght of pipe(kg/m.) , W Enter section modulus of pipe (mm3.) , Z Enter moment of inertia (mm4.) , I Enter pipe span between adjacent (m.) , L Enter modulus of elasticity (N/mm2) , E

    Note : 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Span are limited by maximum deflection of 12.5 mm Pipe stress not exceed 28 N/mm2. Pipe are assumed to be filled with water modulus of elasticity of carbon steel pipe (A106 Gr.B) = 203390 N/mm2 modulus of elasticity of carbon steel pipe (A312 TP316L) = 195120 N/mm2 span are based on formulae : d = ( 98 x 10^6 w L^4 / EI ) 7. stress are based on formulae : s = 981 wL^2 / z Example 1 We have carbon steel pipe 4" sch 40 then the input data are as follow W = 24.3 kg/m Z = 52680 mm3 I = 3010500 mm4 E = 203390 N/mm2 Try L = 7 m. You will get the result as this deflection = 9.338 mm. pipestress = 22.17 N/mm2 " This is OK becuase the result within limit as note 1 and 2 then you can use span at 7 m for pipe 4" sch 40. "
