Re: 14, X-52 pipe joint

Hi Shabaz Khan

depends on your code, welding procedure, testing requirements, equipment, location (field or shop joint) and motivation of the welder. If you can tell me the wall thickness, composition, etc etc Assuming sch40 wall thickness, mild steel and no code requirements I would allow 6 manhours for precut, prep, weld in a shop. 4 hours for weld alone, given decent rotation gear.
For coded work add 50%. for TIG root allow another hour.

Cheers,

Steve McKenzie
