Pipe Size Calculator
Pipe Size Calculator — quick estimate
Find the right water pipe diameter (nominal bore) for a given flow and design velocity — the everyday check for plumbing risers and mains. Adjust the inputs, then get an engineered plumbing design.
Your flow
Sizes the pipe on the velocity method (area = flow ÷ velocity). Typical water velocity is 1.0–2.5 m/s; a full design also checks friction loss, water hammer and noise.

Indicative estimates only — not a binding design. Actual pipe sizing depends on simultaneous demand, friction loss, material, pressure and water-hammer limits.
Need an exact BOQ, rate analysis or measurement sheet?
This is a quick engineering estimate. For tendering, billing or audit, our QS & estimation team prepares an item-wise BOQ, rate analysis and a verified measurement sheet to IS / CPWD norms — backed by 15+ years and ISO 9001:2015 quality processes.
