I'm a GC that bidding on a project that includes field welding some 12" Sch 10 SS pipe.  Can someone give me a rule of thumb for how long it should take a certified quality welder to weld each 12" joint in the field?

Billhuss64,
I too work for a GC and it takes our welders including purging the pipe with the joint configuration being open butt using the GTAW process about 2 hours. I'm talking about welding only. That is not including any fit-up time.

Hope that helps

Jim
