Types of Valves - Tables to Estimate Man-hours of Assembly
Recommended for those who are new to the subject.
This publication describes the traditional valves used in piping systems. The book includes, as a supplement, tables with records of man-hours required for the assembly of threaded, flange, butt welded and wafer valves.
Valves are expensive mechanical devices that control the flow and pressure within a system or process and are essential components in any piping system that carries fluids
In this manuscript are given the fundamental characteristics of the most used valves and the man-hours necessary for their assembly.
