Information
The calculation of a greenhouse made from a profile pipe is a task relevant for gardeners, builders, and professional metal structure makers. While the former build a greenhouse once every few years, the latter engage in metal cutting and assembling such structures on a regular basis. For this, they need to understand how to weld the greenhouse correctly and reliably.
An online calculator plays an important role: it saves a lot of time and allows you to immediately see the design results based on the specified dimensions. Future welded joints are planned without line of force distortions, and the amount of metal used is minimal. Using the calculator, you can calculate the arch for the greenhouse and obtain accurate data for an arched greenhouse.
Advantages
Our greenhouse calculator stands out from other engineering solutions:
- you only need to enter a few parameters;
- all dimensions are clear and measured in the same units (mm);
- the work takes only a few seconds, which is very helpful during a busy day;
- the results are presented in a convenient and understandable format, ready for use, including a drawing of the greenhouse made from profile pipe.
When parameters are changed, the arch calculation for the greenhouse is automatically updated along with component diagrams, ensuring accuracy and convenience in work.
Application
To start working, you need to assess the dimensions of the future greenhouse and its individual elements. The entire structure will depend on these values – you will need to enter such values as:
- overall length and width of the structure;
- height of the front and side walls;
- dimensions of the door openings.
As an output, the user receives 3 projections (in plan and end views) and a whole range of information in graphic and text format. This includes the area and volume of the greenhouse, the length and quantity of individual elements necessary for erecting the structure, providing it with stability and durability under mechanical load. It also calculates the metal required for the greenhouse, allowing for an accurate calculation of the necessary materials.
All elements of the planned frame are presented to the user in a diagram with the necessary dimensions. The output specifications are sufficient for metal cutting and ordering materials, including polycarbonate. Thanks to the online calculator, you can calculate the frame and all its elements, making the design process quick and convenient.
