man .hours unit?

man .hours unit?

man .hours unit?

(OP)
hi friends:

what is mean man.hours unit?
i read it to much but i confuse
it mean the time need to execute the job ?
if i need more one labour to execute the job  how can adjust the number of man .hours units?

any articles will be gratefull.

RE: man .hours unit?

Do you mean man-hours/unit, or man-hours per unit?

As you suspect this is the expected "normal" time to do something to one unit.  For example, an installation manual might state:

"Installation will take 4 man-hours/unit."

This means that an experienced technician would be expected to take four hours to complete the installation.  Or two technicians would be expected to do the job in 2 hours.

Of course 9 men and 1 women can't make a baby in 1 month.

It is interesting to know that similar kind of expressions exist else where (than my geography), also. People are separated by only languages but expressions are same whether constructive or not.
