Electrode Calculator

This document contains calculations to determine the weight of weld metal required for a pipe joint. It provides the thickness, bevel angle, root gap, and pipe size as input values. It then calculates the individual areas for the root gap (P), and both sides of the bevel (Q and R). The total weld area and length are determined and used to find the total volume and final weight of weld metal needed.
