Is there a formula to use when performing a "Hot Pull" on piping that has been installed? We have a 30" x 1.125" x 32' +/- Carbon Steel piping that needs to move approx. 1" in the horizontal directional. (This 30' run turns with a 90°ell and continues for apporx. 60' before another break.)
The piping cannot just be moved to compensate this miss due to hangers, supports and struts already installed.
