This document discusses Gantt charts, which are bar charts developed in the early 1900s to illustrate a project schedule. A Gantt chart uses two axes - horizontal for time and vertical for tasks. Tasks are represented as bars whose length indicates the time to complete that task. The document provides an example Gantt chart for a project with 5 tasks ranging from 5 to 30 days. It notes advantages like ease of creation and visual representation, but also limitations like lack of facilitating project control, monitoring, and updating for large projects.

2. They are pictorial charts developed by Henry Gantt around
1900.
It consists of two coordinate axes:
Horizontal axis representing the time elapsed
Vertical axis represents the jobs to be performed.
Jobs are represented in the form of bars
Length of bar indicates the time required for completion of
job.

3. Analysis of project
Breaking the project into various activities.
Time required to finish each activity.
Place the activities in technical sequence.
Diagram is adjusted according to the target date.

4. Following chart for a project which has five distinct jobs
(a,b,c,d,e) and the time duration are 20, 15, 30, 15 and 5
days.

5. It is simple to draw.
No trained/skilled personnel are required to make the
chart.
The progress achieved at site is expressed in terms of
percentage.
It provides a visual representation of the entire project.

6. Project progress
Time uncertainty
It does not facilitates the work of controlling,
monitoring and updating the project.
Only major activities are shown in bar charts
Therefore bar chart are not very useful for big projects.
