7 Bill of Material for Piping
7.1 General
7.1.1 All pipe sizes are shown in nominal diameter(DN) in mm.
7.1.2 Nominal Pipe Size (DN) may be converted from “mm” to “in” as per the table below :
mm 6 8 10 15 20 25 32 40 50 65 80 90 100 125
in. 1/8 1/4 3/8 1/2 3/4 1 1-1/4 1-1/2 2 2-1/2 3 3-1/2 4 5
mm 150 200 250 300 350 400 450 500 550 600 650 700 750 800
in. 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 22 24 26 28 30 32
mm 850 900 950 1000 1050 1100 1150 1200 1300 1400 1500 1600
in. 34 36 38 40 42 44 46 48 52 56 60 64
7.1.3 65mm DN and larger shall be prefabricated at the Contractor’s workshops, unless otherwise
specified.
7.1.4 Generally 50 mm DN and smaller are site run piping, except that the piping which have
quantities of “shop weld” and ”pipe bend” mentioned in the following lists are to be shop
fabricated.
7.1.5 Small stubs (50 mm DN and smaller) for connection of drain, vent and instrumentation pipe
which are shop drilled, welded and/or tapped on the main pipe shall be included in his
quotation, though these are not specifically listed in the attached “Bill of Material”.
Quantity of these stubs is very small compared with total piping weight and detail of these
stubs (location, number etc.) are not finalized at bidding stage.
7.1.6 Flange rating shall be in accordance with ASME B16.5.
