What is Project Management??
Project management is the discipline of
initiating, planning, executing, controlling,
and closing the work of a team to achieve
specific goals and meet specific success
criteria.
What is Critical Path??
• The sequence of project activities
which add up to the longest overall
duration
• The critical path determines the
shortest time possible to
complete the project
What is Critical Path Method??
• Critical Path Method (CPM) is basically a step-by-step Project
Management technique that separates planning and scheduling
• It also clarifies the inter relationship of time and cost.
What is Critical Path Method??
• CPM evaluates all the possible alternative plans for
project and associates each plans with a schedule.
• It is a mathematical based algorithm for scheduling a
set of project activities.
The origin of CPM
• The CPM was developed in the 1950s by Morgan R. Walker of
DuPont (Chemical Company) and James E. Kelley Jr. of Remington
Rand (Machines Manufacturer)
• It was first used in a missile-defense construction project
• Since that time, the CPM has been adapted to other fields including
hardware and software product research and development
Where is it used??
PROJECTS
Construction
Aerospace & Defense
Research Projects
Product Development
And many more…

Why CPM is important??
According to Dr. Larry Bennett (1978), the critical path method also
has three main benefits for project managers. They are…

Key Steps in the Critical Path Method...
There are six key steps in the critical path method. They are..
Specify Each ActivityStep 1
Draw the Network DiagramStep 3
Establish Dependencies
(Activity Sequence)
Step 2
Update the Critical Path
Diagram to Show Progress Step 6
Identify the Critical Path Step 5
Estimate Activity Completion
Time
Step 4
Key Steps in the Critical Path Method...
Step 1 : Specify Each Activity
The first step is to identify the main deliverables of a project
Then you can start breaking down the high-level activities into
smaller chunks of work
Key Steps in the Critical Path Method...
Step 2 : Establish Dependencies (Activity Sequence)
• Some activities will depend on the completion of others
• Listing the immediate predecessors of each activity will help to
identify the correct order
Key Steps in the Critical Path Method...
Step 3 : Draw the Network Diagram
Once you have identified the activities and their dependencies,
you can draw the critical path analysis chart (CPA), known as the network
diagram
Key Steps in the Critical Path Method...
Step 4 : Estimate Activity Completion Time
• Using past experience or the knowledge of an experienced team member,
estimate the time required to complete each activity
• If you are managing a smaller project, you will most likely estimate time in
days
• If you are working with a complex project, you may have to measure time in
weeks
Key Steps in the Critical Path Method...
Step 5 : Identify the Critical Path
There are two ways you can now identify the critical path
1. You can eyeball your network diagram and simply identify the longest path
throughout the network (in terms of longest duration in days)
Key Steps in the Critical Path Method...
Step 5 : Identify the Critical Path
There are two ways you can now identify the critical path
2. You can also identify critical activities with
the Forward Pass/Backward Pass technique, identifying the earliest start and
finish times, and the latest start and finish times for each activity
Key Steps in the Critical Path Method...
Step 6 : Update the Critical Path Diagram to Show Progress
• As the project progresses, you will learn the actual activity completion
times
• The network diagram can then be updated to include this information
(rather than continuing to use estimations)
Terms Related to CPM
• Float(slack)
It is the amount of time an activity can be delayed without delaying
the project
• Crashing
Reducing a project’s duration is called crashing
Terms Related to CPM
• Critical activity
Activity with zero float
• Resource leveling
It is an iterative process of assigning crews to activities in order to
calculate their duration
Terms Related to CPM
• A Forward Pass through the network determines the earliest times
each activity can start and finish
ALSO DETERMINE THE TOTAL DURATION OF THE PROJECT
• Considers maximum
Terms Related to CPM
• A Backward Passthrough the network determines the latest times each
activity can start and finish without delaying completion of the project
WITH THIS INFORMATION,
WE CAN DETERMINE WHERE WE CAN DELAY ACTIVITIES (HAVE
SLACK) AND WHERE WE CANNOT
• Considers minimum
Terms and Definitions
Activity Times
Forward Passing
Earliest Start Time (EST) : earliest time by which an activity start given that its
precedent activities must be completed first
EST = earliest event time of tail event = TE
i
Earliest Finish Time (EFT) : equals to the earliest start time for the activity plus the
time required to complete the activity
Terms and Definitions
Activity Times
Backward Passing
Latest Finish Time (LFT) : latest time by which an activity can completed
without delaying the completion of the project
LFT = Latest Finish Time of head event = TL
j
Latest Start Time (LST) : latest time by which an activity can start without
delaying the completion of the project
Terms and Definitions
FLOATS
 Associated with activity times
 Denotes flexibility range within which the activity start and finish time may
fluctuate without affecting the total duration of the project
Terms and Definitions
TYPES OF FLOATS
 Total Float (FT) : timespan by which starting or finishing of an activity can be
delayed without affecting the overall completion time of the project
FT= LST – EST or LFT - EFT
Terms and Definitions
TYPES OF FLOATS
 Free Float (FF) : duration by which an activity can be delayed without delaying
any other succeeding activity
 This float is concerned with the commencement of subsequent activity
FF = FT – Sj , Sj= Slack of head event = TL
j – TE
j
Terms and Definitions
TYPES OF FLOATS
 Independent Float (FID): It is excess time available if the preceding activity ends
as late as possible and the succeeding activity starts as early as possible
 This float is concerned with prior and subsequent activities
FID= FF – Si
Si = slack of tail event =TL
i– TE
i
Terms and Definitions
TYPES OF FLOATS
 Interfering Float (FIT) : Another name for head event slack
(Sj), it is the difference between total float and free float
FIT = FT– FF = TL
j – TE
j = Sj
Note : if the total float (FT) for any activity is zero then such activity is called
critical activity
Critical Activity : an activity is said to be critical, if a delay in its start cause a
further delay in the completion of the entire project
Terms and Definitions
Critical Path : The sequence of critical activities in a network which determines
the duration of a project is called critical path
• It is the longest path in the network from the starting event to the ending event
For activities lying on critical path,
• EST =LST ,
• EFT = LFT and
• EST –EFT = LST – LFT
Terms and Definitions
 Sub critical activity : When total float (FT ) is positive
 Critical Activity : When total float (FT ) is zero
 Super critical activity : When total float (FT ) is negative
Calculation of CPM
• Earliest Start Time (EST)
• Earliest Finish Time (EFT)
• Latest start time (LST)
• Latest Finish Time (LFT)
• The longest path of planned
activities to the end of the
project
• The earliest and latest that each activity
can start and finish without making the
project longer
• Determine “critical” activities
• Crashing the critical path
Need to find the following for each activity
Advantages of CPM
• Consistent framework for planning, scheduling, monitoring, and
controlling project
• Helps proper communications between departments and
functions
• Determines expected project completion date.
Advantages of CPM
• Determines the dates on which tasks must be started if the
project is to stay on schedule
• Shows which tasks must be coordinated to avoid resource or
timing conflicts
• Shows which tasks may run in parallel to meet project
completion date
Disadvantages of CPM
• Reliability of CPM largely based on accurate estimates and
assumptions made
• CPM does not guarantee the success of project
• Resources may not actually be as flexible as management
hope when they come to address network float
Disadvantages of CPM
• Too many activities may the network diagram too complicated
• Activities might themselves have to be broken down into mini
projects

Network Analysis
What is Network??
Any system of interconnected linear features..
What is Network Analysis??
• technique for planning, controlling large projects
• Its primary aim is to program, monitor the progress
So that the project completed in the minimum time
• In doing this, it pinpoints the parts of the project which are
“crucial”
What is Network Analysis??
• It can also be used in
• allocating resources such as labor and equipment and thus
• helps to make the total cost of a project minimum
Network Analysis Methods
is a group of special analytical methods that are used in cases where it is
necessary to analyze
and
optimize a network of interconnected and related elements that have
some connection between one another
Basic Network Analysis Methods
• CPM (Critical Path Method)
• CCM (Critical Chain Method)
• PERT Method (Program Evaluation and Review Technique)
• GERT Method (Graphical Evaluation and Review Technique)
• MPM Method (Metra Potential Method)
Terms related to Network Analysis
• WBS
• Activity
• Events (node)
• Path
This is a continuous chain of activities from the beginning to the
end of the project
Terms related to Network Analysis
Activity-on-Arrow (AOA) Network
• A branch reflects an activity of a project
• A node represents the beginning and end of activities, referred to
as events
• Branches in the network indicate precedence relationships
• When an activity is completed at a node, it has been realized
ACTIVITY
PRECEEDING SUCCESSOR
EVENT
Terms related to Network Analysis (A-O-A)
Concurrent Activities
• Activities can occur at the same time (concurrently)
• Network aids in planning and scheduling
• Time duration of activities shown on branches
Terms related to Network Analysis (A-O-A)
Dummy Activities
• A dummy activity shows a precedence relationship but reflects no
passage of time
• Two or more activities cannot share the same start and end nodes

RESOURCE
MANAGEMENT
Resource Management
Construction companies face the challenge of delivering often complex projects
to a schedule, within a budget, and hopefully with a reasonable profit margin
• Resource management is the process of planning the resources necessary
to meet the objectives of the project, and to satisfy the client’s requirements
Resource Management
Fundamental to resource management is real-time visibility of
• what resources are needed,
• what resources are available,
• where resources are located, and the
• ability to reschedule those resources accordingly
Resource Management
Construction resources might include
• Products and materials
• Construction plant, tools and equipment
• Human resources
• Space and facilities
• Subcontractors
• Finance
Resource Management
A resource management plan can be used to
 Ensure resource availability and resolve resource conflicts
 Optimise time, effort and cost
 Ensure workers with the right skills are available
Resource Management
A resource management plan can be used to
 Identify limitations, such as site access, weather conditions, and so on
 Reassign resources in response to circumstances
 Track resources utilisation to avoid excessive resourcing or under-utilisation
Resource Management
List key information about the required resources for each activity
• Type of activity
• Start date and duration of the activity
• Activity owner
• Resource type and quantity required
Resource Management
List key information about the required resources for each activity
• Source/supplier of each resource type
• Equipment required
• Cost estimates for each of the resources to be supplied
• Risk mitigation
Making a Resource Management plan work
Successful resource management requires
• Access to up-to-date project plan with clear definition of different phases of work,
activity and scheduling
• Understanding the types of resources that are needed
• Understanding the availability and optimum utilisation of resources
Making a Resource Management plan work
Successful resource management requires
• Understanding the potential for developing resources for new uses
• Understanding of the lead time required to ensure that resources are available
when needed
• The ability to redeploy resources if works need to be accelerated, or if works are
completed
Making a Resource Management plan work
Automated resource management systems can improve companies’ overall
efficiency,
replacing less efficient data collection methods such as
paper forms,
spreadsheets, and so on.
Making a Resource Management plan work
Some of the features Automated resource management can incorporate include
 Automated calculations
 Ability for managers to simulate and test different scenarios
 Re-evaluation and re-calculation as decisions change
 Real-time resource utilisation tracking
Making a Resource Management plan work
Some of the features Automated resource management can incorporate include
 Resource allocations can be assessed and approved quickly online
 Access to real-time information via mobile device
 Online collaboration between sites, offices, partners, subcontractors, and so on
CONSTRUCTION
LABOUR
CONSTRUCTION LABOUR
They are employed in the construction industry and work predominantly on
construction sites and are typically engaged in aspects of the industry other than
design or finance
The term includes general construction
workers, also referred to as labourers and
members of specialist trades such electricians,
carpenters and plumbers
CONSTRUCTION LABOUR
What does a construction worker do?
Construction is an industry that requires working at ever-changing locations and work
environments
This profile refers to general construction workers.
Others at a construction site include
electricians, carpenters and plumbers
CONSTRUCTION LABOUR
Some of the main duties of a general construction worker are to
Install various commercial, industrial or residential systems
Ensure that projects conform to building codes and regulations
Use, clean and maintain various types of equipment
Supervise or apprentice other workers
SEGMENTS OF CONSTRUCTION LABOUR
The construction industry is divided into three major segments
 Construction of buildings contractors, or general contractors, build residential,
industrial, commercial, and other buildings
 Heavy and civil engineering construction contractors build sewers, roads,
highways, bridges, tunnels, and other projects
 Specialty trade contractors are engaged in specialized activities such as
carpentry, painting, plumbing, and electrical work
ACTS OF CONSTRUCTION LABOUR
THE TWO ACTS WHICH FALL TO THE CATEGORY OF THE
CONSTRUCTION WORKERS ARE AS FOLLOWS
 THE BUILDING AND OTHER CONSTRUCTION WORKERS'
WELFARE CESS ACT, 1996 ACT NO. 28 OF 1996
 THE BUILDINGS AND OTHER CONSTRUCTION WORKERS (REGULATION
OF EMPLOYMENT AND CONDITIONS OF SERVICE) ACT, 1996 ACT NO. 27
OF 1996
THE BUILDING AND OTHER CONSTRUCTION WORKERS' WELFARE CESS ACT, 1996
ACT NO. 28 OF 1996 [19th August, 1996] BE
it enacted by Parliament in the Forty-seventh Year of the Republic of India as follows:-
An act to provide for the levy.
And collection of a cess on the cost of construction incurred by employers with a view to
augmenting the resources of the Building and Other Construction Workers' Welfare Boards
constituted under the Building and Other Construction Workers (Regulation of
Employment and Conditions of Service) Act, 1996.
Short title, extent and commencement.
•This Act may be called the Building and Other Construction
Workers' Welfare Cess Act, 1996.
(2)It extends to the whole of India.
(3)It shall be deemed to have come into force on the 3rd day of November,
1995.
BUILDING AND OTHER CONSTRUCTION
WORKERS(REGULATION OF EMPLOYMENT AND
WORKING CONDITIONS)ACT, 1996
There are about 8.5 million building and other construction workers in India as per the
estimates of National Sample Survey (1987-88).
These workers are one of the most numerous and vulnerable segments of the unorganized
sector in India.
The building and other construction works are characterized by their inherent risk to the life
and limb of the workers.
The work is also characterized by its casual nature, temporary relationship between employer
and employee, uncertain working hours, lack of basic amenities and inadequacy of welfare
facilities.
Although the provisions of various Labor Laws i.e., Minimum Wages Act 1948, Contract Labor
(Regulation & Abolition) Act1970 and Inter- State Migrant Workmen (Regulation of Employment
& Conditions of Services) Act 1979 etc., are applicable to the building and other construction
workers, a need was felt for a comprehensive Central Legislation for this category of workers.
The above law aims to provide for regulation of employment & conditions of
service of the building and other construction workers as also their safety,
health and welfare measures in every establishment which employs or
employed during the preceding year ten or more workers.
The exception made is only in respect of residential houses for own purpose
constructed with a cost not exceeding Rs. 10 lakh and such other activities to
which the provisions of Factories Act, 1948 and Mines Act, 1952 apply.

Actively used chemicals
Commonly sustained injuries caused by the above include:
Electrical and chemical burns
Poisoning
Amputation
Severe lacerations
Traumatic brain injuries
Repetitive strain injuries
Crush injuries
Most employees in this industry work full time, and many work over 40 hours a week.
In 2002, about 1 in 5 construction workers worked 45 hours or more a week.
Construction workers may sometimes work evenings, weekends, and holidays to
finish a job or take care of an emergency.
Workers in this industry need physical stamina because the work frequently requires
prolonged standing, bending, stooping, and working in cramped quarters.
They also may be required to lift and carry heavy objects.
Exposure to weather is common because much of the work is done outside or in
partially enclosed structures.
Construction workers often work with potentially dangerous tools and equipment
amidst a clutter of building materials
some work on temporary scaffolding or at great heights and in bad weather.
Consequently, they are more prone to injuries than are workers in other jobs.
Pain or injury from physical overexertion, repetitive manual tasks, or working in awkward
positions.
Exposure to moulds, fungi and bird or rodent droppings.
Exposure to lead, wood dust, asbestos, paints, solvents, and other toxic chemicals or
materials.
Working in extreme temperatures and UV radiation.
Working with hand tools, powered tools and heavy powered equipment.
Excess vibration in the hands, arms or body from powered tools or equipment.
Confined spaces.
Noise.
Working at heights.
Electrical hazards.
Working with cranes, hoists, and other material handling equipment.
Slips, trips and falls.
Respiratory and fire hazards from wood dust.
Stress
Shift work or extended work days
PREVENTIVE MEASURES
 Keep tools and equipment in good working order.
 Use correct personal protective equipment and apparel, including safety footwear.
 Keep all work areas clear of clutter and equipment.
 Avoid awkward body positions or take frequent breaks.
 Learn safe lifting techniques.
Follow a recommended shift work pattern, and be aware of the associated hazards.
 Follow safety procedures for:
Confined space entry
Working at heights
Electrical safety
Lockout/tagout of machinery
Machinery
Ladders
Material handling
Working with tools and equipment
 Practice safe lifting techniques.
 Follow company safety rules.
 Stay informed about chemical hazards, WHMIS and
MSDS.
 Know how to report a hazard.
 Follow good housekeeping procedures.

CPM, Network Analysis A-O-A, A-O-N, Resource management

  • 1. Critical Path Method & Network Analysis Prepared by, Amit S Kumbar
  • 2. Presentation Summary.. Critical Path Method • Project Management • Critical Path • Critical Path Method (CPM) • Origin of CPM • Why CPM is Important • Terms Related to CPM • Procedure of CPM • Example • Advantages/Disadvantages Network Analysis • Network • Network Analysis • Terms related to Network Analysis • Activity-on-Arc (AOA) Network • Concurrent Activities • Dummy Activities • Example
  • 3. What is Project Management?? Project management is the discipline of initiating, planning, executing, controlling, and closing the work of a team to achieve specific goals and meet specific success criteria.
  • 4. What is Critical Path?? • The sequence of project activities which add up to the longest overall duration • The critical path determines the shortest time possible to complete the project
  • 5. What is Critical Path Method?? • Critical Path Method (CPM) is basically a step-by-step Project Management technique that separates planning and scheduling • It also clarifies the inter relationship of time and cost.
  • 6. What is Critical Path Method?? • CPM evaluates all the possible alternative plans for project and associates each plans with a schedule. • It is a mathematical based algorithm for scheduling a set of project activities.
  • 7. The origin of CPM • The CPM was developed in the 1950s by Morgan R. Walker of DuPont (Chemical Company) and James E. Kelley Jr. of Remington Rand (Machines Manufacturer) • It was first used in a missile-defense construction project • Since that time, the CPM has been adapted to other fields including hardware and software product research and development
  • 8. Where is it used?? PROJECTS Construction Aerospace & Defense Research Projects Product Development And many more… Software Development
  • 9. Why CPM is important?? According to Dr. Larry Bennett (1978), the critical path method also has three main benefits for project managers. They are… Identifies the Most Important Tasks Helps to Reduce Timelines Compares Planned with Actual
  • 10. Key Steps in the Critical Path Method... There are six key steps in the critical path method. They are.. Specify Each ActivityStep 1 Draw the Network DiagramStep 3 Establish Dependencies (Activity Sequence) Step 2 Update the Critical Path Diagram to Show Progress Step 6 Identify the Critical Path Step 5 Estimate Activity Completion Time Step 4
  • 11. Key Steps in the Critical Path Method... Step 1 : Specify Each Activity The first step is to identify the main deliverables of a project Then you can start breaking down the high-level activities into smaller chunks of work
  • 12. Key Steps in the Critical Path Method... Step 2 : Establish Dependencies (Activity Sequence) • Some activities will depend on the completion of others • Listing the immediate predecessors of each activity will help to identify the correct order
  • 13. Key Steps in the Critical Path Method... Step 3 : Draw the Network Diagram Once you have identified the activities and their dependencies, you can draw the critical path analysis chart (CPA), known as the network diagram
  • 14. Key Steps in the Critical Path Method... Step 4 : Estimate Activity Completion Time • Using past experience or the knowledge of an experienced team member, estimate the time required to complete each activity • If you are managing a smaller project, you will most likely estimate time in days • If you are working with a complex project, you may have to measure time in weeks
  • 15. Key Steps in the Critical Path Method... Step 5 : Identify the Critical Path There are two ways you can now identify the critical path 1. You can eyeball your network diagram and simply identify the longest path throughout the network (in terms of longest duration in days)
  • 16. Key Steps in the Critical Path Method... Step 5 : Identify the Critical Path There are two ways you can now identify the critical path 2. You can also identify critical activities with the Forward Pass/Backward Pass technique, identifying the earliest start and finish times, and the latest start and finish times for each activity
  • 17. Key Steps in the Critical Path Method... Step 6 : Update the Critical Path Diagram to Show Progress • As the project progresses, you will learn the actual activity completion times • The network diagram can then be updated to include this information (rather than continuing to use estimations)
  • 18. Terms Related to CPM • Float(slack) It is the amount of time an activity can be delayed without delaying the project • Crashing Reducing a project’s duration is called crashing
  • 19. Terms Related to CPM • Critical activity Activity with zero float • Resource leveling It is an iterative process of assigning crews to activities in order to calculate their duration
  • 20. Terms Related to CPM • A Forward Pass through the network determines the earliest times each activity can start and finish ALSO DETERMINE THE TOTAL DURATION OF THE PROJECT • Considers maximum
  • 21. Terms Related to CPM • A Backward Passthrough the network determines the latest times each activity can start and finish without delaying completion of the project WITH THIS INFORMATION, WE CAN DETERMINE WHERE WE CAN DELAY ACTIVITIES (HAVE SLACK) AND WHERE WE CANNOT • Considers minimum
  • 22. Terms and Definitions Activity Times Forward Passing Earliest Start Time (EST) : earliest time by which an activity start given that its precedent activities must be completed first EST = earliest event time of tail event = TE i Earliest Finish Time (EFT) : equals to the earliest start time for the activity plus the time required to complete the activity
  • 23. Terms and Definitions Activity Times Backward Passing Latest Finish Time (LFT) : latest time by which an activity can completed without delaying the completion of the project LFT = Latest Finish Time of head event = TL j Latest Start Time (LST) : latest time by which an activity can start without delaying the completion of the project
  • 24. Terms and Definitions FLOATS  Associated with activity times  Denotes flexibility range within which the activity start and finish time may fluctuate without affecting the total duration of the project
  • 25. Terms and Definitions TYPES OF FLOATS  Total Float (FT) : timespan by which starting or finishing of an activity can be delayed without affecting the overall completion time of the project FT= LST – EST or LFT - EFT
  • 26. Terms and Definitions TYPES OF FLOATS  Free Float (FF) : duration by which an activity can be delayed without delaying any other succeeding activity  This float is concerned with the commencement of subsequent activity FF = FT – Sj , Sj= Slack of head event = TL j – TE j
  • 27. Terms and Definitions TYPES OF FLOATS  Independent Float (FID): It is excess time available if the preceding activity ends as late as possible and the succeeding activity starts as early as possible  This float is concerned with prior and subsequent activities FID= FF – Si Si = slack of tail event =TL i– TE i
  • 28. Terms and Definitions TYPES OF FLOATS  Interfering Float (FIT) : Another name for head event slack (Sj), it is the difference between total float and free float FIT = FT– FF = TL j – TE j = Sj Note : if the total float (FT) for any activity is zero then such activity is called critical activity Critical Activity : an activity is said to be critical, if a delay in its start cause a further delay in the completion of the entire project
  • 29. Terms and Definitions Critical Path : The sequence of critical activities in a network which determines the duration of a project is called critical path • It is the longest path in the network from the starting event to the ending event For activities lying on critical path, • EST =LST , • EFT = LFT and • EST –EFT = LST – LFT
  • 30. Terms and Definitions  Sub critical activity : When total float (FT ) is positive  Critical Activity : When total float (FT ) is zero  Super critical activity : When total float (FT ) is negative
  • 31. Calculation of CPM • Earliest Start Time (EST) • Earliest Finish Time (EFT) • Latest start time (LST) • Latest Finish Time (LFT) • The longest path of planned activities to the end of the project • The earliest and latest that each activity can start and finish without making the project longer • Determine “critical” activities • Crashing the critical path Need to find the following for each activity
  • 32. Advantages of CPM • Consistent framework for planning, scheduling, monitoring, and controlling project • Helps proper communications between departments and functions • Determines expected project completion date.
  • 33. Advantages of CPM • Determines the dates on which tasks must be started if the project is to stay on schedule • Shows which tasks must be coordinated to avoid resource or timing conflicts • Shows which tasks may run in parallel to meet project completion date
  • 34. Disadvantages of CPM • Reliability of CPM largely based on accurate estimates and assumptions made • CPM does not guarantee the success of project • Resources may not actually be as flexible as management hope when they come to address network float
  • 35. Disadvantages of CPM • Too many activities may the network diagram too complicated • Activities might themselves have to be broken down into mini projects
