Explain the statements about the critical path method, Civil Engineering

Assignment Help:

1. Determine a network diagram method that uses only finish-to-start relationships and may use dummy activities to define logical relationships. 

2.  Precedence diagramming is best described as:

3.  Explain the statements about the Critical Path Method?

Solution: The Arrow Diagramming Method is the only scheduling technique that employs dummy activities.

2. Precedence diagramming is also called Activity on Node (AON) diagramming.

3.  I.  A network analysis technique used to predict project duration by analyzing which sequence of activities has the least amount of schedule flexibility (float)

II. Early dates are calculated by a forward pass using a specified start date

III. Late dates are calculated by a backwards pass using a specified completion date (usually the early finish date)
