About the Book

Master Accurate Piping Man-Hour Estimation-Field-Verified, Practical, and Ready for Real Projects

Engineering teams lose time and money when man-hour estimates are inconsistent, outdated, or based on guesswork. This book provides a clear, field-validated method for estimating labor hours in aboveground piping fabrication and installation, helping planners, supervisors, and estimators deliver predictable, defensible, and repeatable results.

Whether you work in oil & gas, petrochemicals, power generation, or industrial construction, this second edition gives you a practical toolkit to improve productivity and reduce uncertainty in project planning.

What You Will Find Inside
  • 15 field-verified man-hour tables for piping components and assemblies
  • Installation labor charts for elbows, tees, reducers, flanges, valves, and supports
  • Updated welding consumable calculations for SMAW
  • Surface preparation and painting productivity rates
  • Slip-on and welding-neck flange alignment tolerances based on ASME PCC-1
  • Correction factors for real-world jobsite conditions
  • Prefabrication vs. field-assembly productivity comparison with validated IPD (inches per day) rates
Why This Book Matters
  • Built from real field data, not theoretical assumptions
  • Designed for quick reference during estimating, planning, and supervision
  • Applicable to refineries, chemical plants, pipelines, and industrial facilities
  • Written for professionals who need accuracy, speed, and consistency
What's New in the Second Edition
  • Expanded tables and updated man-hour values
  • New sections on valve installation (gate, ball, wafer, BWE, safety, control)
  • Improved layout for faster lookup
  • Additional examples and practical guidance
  • Enhanced alignment with ASME and industry best practices
Who Should Use This Book
  • Piping estimators
  • Construction planners and schedulers
  • Field supervisors and foremen
  • QA/QC inspectors
  • Project engineers and managers
If your work depends on accurate labor estimation, this book will become one of your most valuable tools.

Calificado en Estados Unidos el 22 de julio de 2020

The author is a chemical engineer and really knows his stuff. This book is full of charts, tables and illustrations that show how to estimate the number of man hours for the assembly of carbon steel piping. Good read.

  • 5.0 de 5 estrellas A fast, easy, & comprehensive guide

Calificado en Estados Unidos el 27 de julio de 2020

Basic Manual for any Engineer, Designer or Owner.

The author presents complete calculation examples of piping installations, based on the man-hours indicated by the tables to later apply the corrections or adjustments needed for each project
