This is used differently in different countries. But generally, if a welder is contracted to do say 100 weld joints, of a 1" pipe, then the total work involved is 100" dia welding work. If 100 weld joints of a 2" pipe is 200 weld work and so on.
the basic principle of welding is 1. first we have some broken material 2. a welder 3. welder should know how to weld
The inch diameter covered by a welder varies based on their expertise and the type of welding process used, but typically, a skilled welder can handle 2 to 6 inches for pipe welding. To calculate the number of welders required for welding a structure, first determine the total length of welds needed, then estimate the welding speed (in inches per hour) for the specific welder and process. Divide the total weld length by the welding speed to find the total man-hours required, and then divide by the available work hours to get the number of welders needed. Always consider factors such as work shifts, breaks, and the complexity of the welds when making your calculation.
for an 06 with 2 cats=3k from ford if you have a welder or know someone who can weld just about 220 bucks from summit racing :) im actually doing my 06 expedition today
3/16 for every 2 inches
A spot welder uses 2 electrodes positioned opposite each other. 2 pieces of metal (usually thin) are placed like a sandwich between the electrodes which come together with force and an electrical current is passed thru them which actually melts the pieces where they touch each other. This produces a small weld "spot" . This spot is about the same size as the tips of the electrodes.

There are 2. One for the Oxygen tank and one for the Acetylene tank.
11"
the answer is 2 1/2
If you have a lot to install i would weld. 2 in. is a very big pipe to screw together
2 feet and 2 inches.
