Work hour units include cutting, beveling and welding.
Work hour units are for welding in-place. For weld bay, multiply standard units by 80%.
With proper and conscientious application of these construction norms and man-hours for preparing estimates, the estimator will calculate hourly time requirements i.e. the man-hours required for the erection. The man-hours (mhr) do not account for any particular condition or PRODUCTIVITY EFFICIENCY PERCENTAGES (PEP, Leistungsfähigkeit - Prozentsatz)
No allowance / costs have been allowed in the above mentioned formulas for supporting of pipe work, X-raying, cranage, pressure testing, pickling, passivation of stainless steel pipes and working at height

ALLOY MATERIAL ADJUSTMENT NOTES
1. Apply the appropriate multiplier above to the corresponding Carbon Steel labor operation.
2. Adjustments shown above apply to all wall thicknesses.
3. The molybdenum content in alloys listed in Groups 1 through 3 inclusive, shall not exceed 1%.
4. Adjustments for alloys other than those listed above will have to be researched. Consult Piping lead engineer.
5. Low Temp Carbon Steel type ASTM-A333 Gr. 6 is standard Carbon Steel material and alloy adjustments do not apply.
6. Where standard Carbon Steel welding procedures and filler metal can be used, alloy adjustments will not apply to Low Temp Carbon Steel types ASTM A333 Gr. 1 and ASTM A333 Gr. 9. Consult Piping lead engineer.
