Man hours include access holes through 1" diameter (drilled and tapped) for radiographic inspection of welds when
specified or required.
For openings larger than I" in diameter add 25% to the above man hours for each 1/4" increase in diameter.
If plugs are to be included and seal welded, add 0.5 man hours each.
