Estimate the direct cost of furnishing and installing 386 linear feet of 1½-in. galvanized steel pipe, which is only available in 20 feet sections. It will be necessary to cut and thread the pipe for installing 12 galvanized tees, 10 galvanized elbows, 4 galvanized unions, and 3 bronze gate valves. The pipe will be cut and threaded by hand. Assume the plumber will have a helper. Use the material prices as shown in Tables 17.12 to 17.20, as appropriate. If tabular data is used, use average values. Plumber labor rate is $47.50/hour and its Helper is $29/hour.
