This document provides a formula and table to calculate the elbow center for pipes based on the pipe diameter and elbow angle. The formula is: elbow center = tan(angle/2) x 38.1 x diameter. The table lists the tan values for commonly used elbow angles from 30 to 90 degrees to simplify the elbow center calculation. An example calculation is provided for a 12" pipe with a 60 degree elbow which results in an elbow center of 263.80 mm.
