Meaning ? of course you have to do it.

If you want help, your question should be clear and unambiguous.

For carrying out the calculations, pl check and if is how, and not who you have several softwares to do it.

To be accurate you have to purchase pipeline softwares, if approximate will do try these -

or

you have one on globalspec too.

Best of luck and have a nice new year.

May be he means why to do it at all (when we can measure it if we want to) on second thought why to measure too?

But let us give him benefit of doubt of transposing W and H and making who out of How
