    Assignement 1: Exercise 1

    Uploaded by

    Arbi Chaima
    This document contains exercises related to critical path method (CPM) scheduling. The first exercise provides a list of activities with predecessors and durations, and asks to draw the network diagram, identify the critical path, and calculate the project duration and slack. The second exercise provides another activity list and asks similar questions. The third exercise gives normal and crash durations and costs for a construction project and asks to identify the critical path, estimated duration, and changes needed to shorten the project duration and the associated costs.

    1. Draw the network


    2. What is the critical path?
    3. How many weeks will it take to complete the project?
    4. Which activities have slack, and how much?

    Exercise 2
    A project has been defined to contain the list of activities, in the following
    table, along with their required times for completion:

    1. Draw the critical path diagram.


    2. Show the early start, early finish, late start and late finish times
    3. Show the critical path
    4. What would be happen if activity F was revised to take four days instead
    of two?
