     TECHNICAL

     INFORMATION











                        As we stated in the Preface of this book, its intention is solely for
                        the  estimation  of labor  and  is not intended for the  design  of pip-

                        ing.  Therefore, this  section  has  been  held  to  a  minimum  and
                        includes only information that we feel will benefit the estimator
                        in the preparation  of his  estimate.


                        Included in this section  are tables showing the circumferences of
                        pipes for welding purposes,  the  amount  of materials  needed for
                        insulation, the weights of pipe, fittings and valves and methods of
                        hanging and supporting pipe and fittings.



                        We wish to acknowledge and to express  our appreciation  to  the
                        Grinnell Company, Inc., of Providence, Rhode Island, who has so
                        graciously allowed us to reproduce the following  tables.
