Wide open space 8' ceilings using KX clips to attach....not too many bends. Do you think 8 hours per hundred is good? I think that's slow.
As described, two hrs per hundred.
That's very slow but without seeing I'm guessing. I've never used those clips for EMT before, never even seen it done like that.
done all the the time like that here in NYC..... above hung clg.

Unless the ceiling wires are not supporting the ceiling and specifically installed and identified for the conduit, it is a code violation.

See 300.11(A)
400' in a day... entirely reasonable.
well I doubt it's a code violation due to the ceiling configuration of pencil rod and black iron... like I said theres above ceiling inspections done here and they support MC and EMT from the pencil rod a lot.
400' in a day... entirely reasonable.
There are so many variables, but I can see 400' a day being a little much. As pointed out regarding the code, one would have to assume that all or some of the ceiling wires must be shot and/or tied at both ends as well as identified. Or if pencil rod is what I think it is, it must be cut assembled to concrete clips and shot. Material has to be hauled to the location. Job must be cleaned up at the end of the day. There must be boxes in the runs and some planning. On any given day, 400' may be achieved, but I would be very surprised if it averaged out to this over several days, or several journeymen.
I find about 300' a daily average for straight forward runs and depends on how many bends you gotta make.
