2 What Will You Learn How to plan projects How to make a time schedule How to allocate resources How to monitor progress How to manage and control the project © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

3 Four Project Goals Projects should be completed: On Schedule Within Budget Of Acceptable Quality With Zero Accident © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

4 Why Do We Need A Schedule? To establish time frame and organize construction activities To provide a communication tool between all parties involved (contractors, subcontractors, A/E, owner) Contractual requirement Can refer to for modifications To show the impact of productivity- related problems on project completion © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

5 1. Bar Charts A Graphical representation of a project in which activities types and duration represented by bars whose length is proportional to their duration. The Hierarchy of Schedules © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

Bar Chart Example © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

7 2. Networks   Definition A network consists of two basic elements, nodes and links between these nodes.   Arrow Diagram Activities are represented by two nodes and one link (ADM)   Precedence Diagram Activities represented by nodes and links represent the relationship (PDM) © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

9 PDM - Precedence Diagram   PDM Network rules:   Activities are represented by boxes or nodes that are assigned properties of the activity they represent.   Precedences are shown by arrows that have both Direction and Time properties.   Precedences consist of two parts: A Relationship and a Lag Value or Constraint   Finish - to - StartFS   Finish - to - FinishFF   Start - to - StartSS   Start - to - FinishSF   Lag = X Days (or other time units) Copyright AACE International © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

10 Schedule Development Process Typical Steps Step 1 : Study project information and contract documents. Step 2 : Develop work breakdown structure. Step 3 : Develop activity list. Step 4 : Create dependency list. Step 5 : Estimate activity duration. Step 6 : Draw the CPM diagram and calculate ESD, EFD,LSD, LFD, TF, FF. Step 7 : Review & Revise. Step 8 : Update © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

11 Step 1: Study Project Information and Contract Documents   Total project duration   Total duration for each subcontractor   Job complexity and coordination with other trades   Major milestones   Long-term procurement items   Labor market and attitude © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

12 Step 2: Develop Work Breakdown Structure   WBS is a hierarchical system that sub- divides larger elements of the project into smaller elements. © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

13 Project Breakdown   Construction stages can be broken down into many operations that define the major elements to be performed.   The Single Relationship Finish to Start relationship Each activity must be selected so that all the previously required activities must be completed before the chosen one can begin and all the following activities cannot be started until the chosen one is completed. © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

Activity Relationships A B L = 0 or FS a) Finish-to-start relationship (Start of B immediately follows the finish of A) A B L = 3 or SS =3 b) Start-to-start relationship (Start of B must lag 3 days after the start of A) A B L = 3 or FF =3 c) Finish-to-finish relationship (Finish of B must lag 3 days after the finish of A) A B L = 45 or d) Start-to-finish relationship (Finish of B must lag 45 days after the start of A) © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

19 Principles and Practices of Project Scheduling Example Work break down structure Alliant has decided to self perform the electrical work for their new warehouse expansion of 100,000sq.ft, of which 12,500sq.ft is office space. The warehouse space allows 42.65ft and 53.31ft of clearance to the bottom of the exposed roof structure above. The project is located 20miles from Alliant office in Madison Wisconsin. The site is large with adequate access and plenty of surrounding space for lay down area. Develop what your team can agree is an appropriate Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) of approximately activities for the entire project. Expand the electrical work node to show more details of electrical construction activities. Be prepared to share your WBS with the class. © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

Step 4: Create Dependency List and Eliminate Redundancy © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

26 Establish the Sequence of Work Establish the Sequence of Work 1.Physical Exists between two or more activities when one cannot start until another is partially or totally complete (i.e. cannot pull wire until conduits have been installed) 2.Safety Exists when simultaneous performance of two activities can result in a safety hazard 3.Resource Due to limited resources availability, two activities may not be able to use resource at the same time (i.e. a crane cannot be used for both pouring walls and erecting steel) 4.Preferential How the scheduler wishes certain activities to be sequenced (where to start, winter work) © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

43 The Four Activity Times   ESD - Early Start Date   EFD - Early Finish Date   LSD - Late Start Date   LFD - Late Finish Date © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

44 PDM Activity Notation ES LS EF LF Duration Activity Identifier © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

45  Early Start Date ESD, for an activity is the earliest point in time that the activity can begin.  Late Finish Date LFD, for an activity is the latest point in time that activity must be completed without delaying the project. © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E. Start and Finish Dates

46 Forward & Backward Pass Copyright AACE International   Assume all activities:   Begin on the morning of the scheduled start date   End the evening of the scheduled finish date   Milestones occur on the evening of the day its last predecessor finished   Understand how various CPM software programs calculate forward / backward passes   Not all are created equal! © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

Critical Path Method ( Free Float and Critical Path) © 10 B C E D F A G Sequence Step TF=0 FF=0 TF=0 FF=0 TF=5 FF=0 TF=6 FF=1 TF=0 FF=0 TF=7 FF=7 TF=0 FF= Free Float for an activity is equal to the value of minimum Link Lag values for all links exit from the activity. © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

48 Forward Pass Rules Rule 1: The initial project event is assumed to occur at time zero. Rule 2: All activities are assumed to start as soon as possible, that is, as soon as all the predecessor activities are completed. Rule 3: The early finish time of an activity is merely the sum of its early start date and the estimated activity duration. © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

49 Forward Pass Rules (cont.) Rule 4: The late Start Date LSD I is found by subtracting the activity duration T I from the Late Finish Date LFD I LSD I = LFD I - T I © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

50 Forward Pass Rules (cont.) Rule 5: At merge point, the early start is the largest value of the preceding early finish time EFD = 6 EFD = 9 ESD = 9 Forward © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

Forward Pass Example © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

52 Backward Pass Rules Rule 6: In the backward pass, the latest finish date of an activity is the smallest late start value of the following activities. (i.e. activities bursting from activity in question) LFD = 37 LSD = 42 LSD = 37 Backward 12 © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

Backward Pass Example © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

54 Float Concept   Total Float: The time span in which the completion of an activity may occur and not delay the termination of the project.   Free Float: The time span in which the completion of an activity may occur and not delay the termination of the project nor delay the start of the following activity. © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

55 Link Lag   A link lag is the difference between the early start date of an activity and the early finish date of the preceding activity. LAG IJ = ESD J - EFD I I Activity EFD J ESD J EFD I ESD I J Activity © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

56 Critical Path   The Critical Path is the sequential combination of activities and relationships from project start to finish that requires the longest time to complete.   The Critical Path is the path with the least path float. © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

57 Workshop 1. Data for a small project is tabulated below. Construct a precedence network for this project and compute early start and finish dates, total floats, and free floats for each activity. Show these values on the network and indicate the critical path. Ⓒ © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

59 Step 7   Compare duration to industry standard and the Hanna Charts.   Review coordination with other trades and make sure that density level is 250 sq.ft / worker or more.   Review activities that can lead to delay. © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

60 Step 8. Updating the Schedule Purpose: To correct the target plan to meet the project objective Source of changes in the original plan: Unforeseen events (delay) Error in the original plan (duration and logic) Change orders (added and deleted scope) Procurement delay Labor difficulties (strike, jurisdictional disputes, availability) Accidents © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

61 Project Control   Small projects - low cost - short duration   Detailed network   Reporting mechanism   Middle-sized projects (300 activities)   Detailed network   Summary network   Area and craft network   Large Projects   Same as middle-size project + summary bar chart © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

62 Setting the Target Schedule   Early Start Schedule As Target for Control   Problem: Requires high effort to keep the plan working   Late Start Schedule As Target for Control   Problem: Because every activity is timed to start as late as possible, project overruns are sure to follow © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.

63 Target Schedule   Activities may be positioned for early or late start or somewhere in between.   Non-critical activities allow intermediate start. © Awad S. Hanna, PhD, P.E.
