Types of Valves - Tables to Estimate Man-hours of Assembly

Recommended to beginners.

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, the fundamental characteristics of the most used valves and the man-hours required for their assembly are indicated.
