WORK BREAKDOWN STRUCTURE ACTIVITY

• Develop a minimum three level WBS for a residential single family house project.

  • Land is owned
  • Utilities are in to lot line
  • Roads and services are in
  • WBS elements listed below:

Budget control

Structure the WBS in either a graphic or tabular form.

Develop the network

Using the following activities and their relationships, construct a PDM network:

1. A Start Milestone starts the project

2. Activities A and B can start at the milestone

3. Activity C follows the completion of A

4. Activity D can start after A finishes

5. Activity E cannot start until B is finished

6. Activity F starts after D and E have finished

7. Activity G starts after C finishes

8. Activity H can start after E finishes

9. The project finishes after G, F and H finish

Use the following durations in working days:

1. Start and Finish milestones = 0 days

2. A = 4 days

3. B = 2 days

4. C = 6 days

5. D = 7 days

6. E = 4 days

7. F = 5 days

8. G = 5 days

9. H = 4 days

Questions (Assume 7-dav work weeks):

1. Calculate the Early and Late dates for each activity.

2. What is the latest date C can finish?

3. What is the latest date E can finish?

4. Calculate total float for each activity.

5. What activities are on the critical path?
