Read the CASE STUDY 2 of Chapter 4 ( on pages 137-138) and answer the following questions.
- Develop an estimated duration for each activity.
- Using a project start time at 0 (or Jan. 1) and a required project completion time of 180 days (or Jun 30), calculate the ES, FS, and LF times and TS for each activity. If your calculations result in a project schedule with negative TS, revise the project scope, activity durations, and/or sequence or dependent relationships among activities to arrive at an acceptable baseline schedule for completing the project within 180 days (or by Jun 30). Describe the revisions you made.
- Determine the critical path, and identify the activities that make up the critical path.
- Produce a bar chart (Gantt Chart) based on the ES and EF times from the schedule in item 2.
