Do anyone have the timing details of the flange torquing or tensioning for all flange sizes for the purpose of shutdown planning and execution. If anyone have those details, please share it.
 
Bolt torque used in fanged joints depends on required gasket clamping force. If you are asking for plant wide advice, you should try a resource like the Garlock Gasket Calculator.

More Information = better answers
 
I think the OP wants a ROT or guide on how long it takes to properly torque up different sized flanges. Which I guess also varies by flange class.

Remember - More details = better answers
Also: If you get a response it's polite to respond to it.
