On process piping, the drawing is the record. A spool with six welds, two elbows, and a two flange is hard to describe in lines of text. You need to draw it, and you need every weld numbered on the drawing. That's what the Plusballz Process Piping Tally Book is for.
The pros of carrying the Process Piping Tally Book
1. Your sketch is already on the grid.
Isometric dot grid pages keep your lines on the three iso axes, so spools come out clean and readable without a straightedge or a drafting background.
2. The sketch becomes the weld map.
Number each weld on the drawing, then add the welder ID and NDT number next to it. Anyone can match a weld on the page to a weld on the pipe.
3. Field as-builts happen on the spot.
When a spool gets changed in the field, you sketch it right there instead of trying to remember it at the end of the day.
4. Fewer mix-ups at turnover.
When the weld numbers on your sketch match the line or spool drawing, the paperwork lines up and questions get answered fast.
5. The references are in the book.
The Process Piping Tally Book has 176 dotted iso pages plus common piping tables, recommended flange torque sequences, and welding inspection formulas.
6. Built for the field.
It's a 6x9 hard cover, so it holds up in a vest or a truck and gives you a stiff surface to sketch on when there's no table around.
Quick tips for a clean iso sketch
- Set a north arrow or plant reference first.
- Draw the pipe as single lines along the grid.
- Put a weld number at every joint, matching the drawing when there is one.
- Add the line or spool number and the date in a corner.
Who it's for
Welding inspectors, CWIs, and SCWIs on process piping, stations, and fabrication shops who sketch as-builts in the field.
