Example 3:
1. Calculate the shrinkage. See the Greenlee Offset Table,
Column 3. (The amount of shrink for a 22-1/2 ° bend is 3/16"
per inch of obstacle. 3/16" x 2 = 3/8").
2. Measure the distance to the center of the obstruction. Mark
with this distance on the conduit – this is point "A". Add the
amount of shrink to this distance. (Place the mark 15-3/8"
from the end of the conduit).
3. Refer to the Table for 45° Saddles for the locations of Mark B
and Mark C. (Place both marks, Mark B and Mark C, 5 inches
from Mark A).
4. Use the bending sequence as illustrated. Align Mark A with the
notch near the star. Align Marks B and C with the arrow.
