About this book

Estimator's Piping Man-hours Tool
Second Edition, Revised and Expanded

A Practical Guide to Calculating Man-Hours for Carbon Steel Process Piping Installations

Master cost estimation for piping projects with the second edition of this manual—an indispensable resource now enriched with expanded technical content, a completely professional design, and exclusive access to the official PMHT Web & Mobile Application (PWA).

Created for engineers, estimators, site supervisors, and project leaders, this guide is the definitive tool for planning with precision, defending proposals, and executing with profitability.


What's New in the Second Edition: More Content, Better Design & Digital Tools

This new edition doesn't just update; it expands its value based on real-world experience, ASME standard updates, and reader feedback:

NEW! Official Web & Mobile Application (PWA) Included: Transform the book's static tables into an instant, interactive digital estimation suite on your PC, Mac, iPad, or smartphone.

Lifetime Cloud Auto-Updates: Never worry about outdated data. Baseline revisions, ASME code adjustments, and technical updates sync automatically to your device in real time at zero extra cost.

Professional Design and Superior Layout: An improved reading experience with a clear, organized format that facilitates quick on-site reference and detailed office study.

Expanded Technical Content:Guide to Valve Installation: Technical recommendations for gate, butt-weld, wafer, safety, and control valves.Flanged Joint Inspection: Visual inspection criteria and assembly tolerances per ASME PCC-1 for the gasket-flange-bolt system.Expanded Section on Cleaning and Painting: New performance rates and ratios for surface treatment on piping and structures.Analysis of Welding Consumables: Detailed information for more accurate and comprehensive estimations.


Why This Manual & Digital Suite is an Essential Tool

15 Field-Verified Man-Hour Tables: The heart of this book. Eliminate guesswork with meticulously proven data for pipe, elbows (up to 24"), tees, reducers, flanges, and valves from real projects in refineries, chemical plants, pipelines, and power plants.

Interactive Digital Estimator (PWA): Instantly select components, schedules, and jobsite adjustment factors (prefabrication, temperature, wind, elevation, brownfield congestion) to generate total direct field man-hours in seconds.

Full Offline Capability: Thanks to Progressive Web App (PWA) technology, the application runs locally on your laptop, tablet, or smartphone. After an initial online license verification, the 5-day free trial supports up to 24 hours of continuous offline use, while the paid lifetime license offers up to 30 consecutive days of offline operation before requiring a brief online verification.

Detailed Application Examples: Learn to apply standard hours and field multipliers in practical case studies simulating real-world industrial projects.

Export PDF Reports & CSV Data: Generate clean, professional estimating reports for clients, management, and proposal defense.

Proven Author Expertise: Backed by decades of hands-on experience in managing, estimating, and executing large-scale EPC industrial projects.


Quoting accurately is the key to executing profitable contracts.
With this guide and digital toolkit, you will have the exact technical foundation needed to build solid estimates, win competitive bids, and maximize the profitability of every project.
