Let me explain how to calculate length!
Hello!
I'm Hiro, one of our staff members.
This time we will look at calculating the length of a tri-joint.
Because the legs of the Tri-Joint are slanted, the length of the 2x4 lumber does not equal the height after assembly.
This calculation is surprisingly difficult. So I've put together an explanation.
calculation formula
Assembled height = Length of leg wood x cos15° + 89 + 6
Length of leg timber = (height after assembly - 89 - 6) ÷ cos15°
*There may be errors in the dimensions depending on how the parts are inserted during assembly and how open the main unit is.
Please use this information for reference only.
Height after assembly → Length of wooden legs
The length of the leg timber is calculated from the height after assembly.
Length of leg wood → Height after assembly
The assembled height is calculated from the length of the leg wood.
summary
The formula is calculated using trigonometric functions that we learned in high school. (That brings back memories...)
If you are unsure how to calculate the assembled height or the length of the timber, please feel free to contact us.
Another great thing about Tri-Joint is that you can make it to your preferred height!
Please use this as a reference when making workbenches, signs, etc.
