I am more than grateful for your contribution! You are grand! I have solved some doubts because of you. Thank you very much for your time and posts. You gained another subscriber!!!. Cheer!
Thanks for the kind words! You can find the rest of my PM tutorials on my website www.engineer4free.com/project-management or also in my project management playlist on TH-cam. =)
thank you , I have a question : In the Resource-Constrained Project : a-Time is fixed & resources are flexible b-Resources are flexible c-Time is fixed & resources are fixed d-Time is flexible
The C.P is A-B-C-E not A-B-D-E since A-B-C-E has a total of 11 days, while A-B-D-E has a total of 10 days, so we should move activity d to the right instead of c, similarly shown in the video, thanks.
Hey, critical path doesn't work that way. It's not just the group of activities with the longest duration. It depends on their relationships and is revealed by doing a network diagram and then performing the forward and backward pass. The CP in this example would in fact be A-B-D-E. I recommend watching videos 1-9 here: engineer4free.com/project-management
How to the find TF just of this project? Just this project! Because when I tried to find its TF, it was found 1 day in terms of PDM network diagram... But logically its TF is 2 in terms of Gantt chart. I tried FS1 relationship and negative relationships but I can't find 2
Hey Nawab, if you haven't already seen the TF video, do check it out here: www.engineer4free.com/4/what-is-total-float-total-slack-and-how-to-calculate-it-in-a-network-diagram When you draw the PDM network diagram for this project, you should notice that there are two terminal activities, C and E (C is less obvious, but it has no successors, so C will get a LF of 10). You get the below results (I'm writing them in the format here of Activity, ES, EF, LS, LF): A, 0, 2, 0, 2 B, 2, 5, 2, 5 C, 5, 8, 7, 10 D, 5, 7, 5, 7 E, 7, 10, 7, 10 You'll see that the critical path is A-B-D-E, as all of those activities have a TF = 0. The only activity that has a TF is C, and it is 2. Do you see it now?
@@Engineer4Free Hey really enjoying this! I did have a query over the fact that there are two terminal activities which is prob what's causing the confusion here. The other examples have only one so easier to figure out. Is the reason the TF is 2 for C because you just pass E's LS/LF values (i.e. 7/10 respectively which are subtracted from C's ES/EF values) to C? Thanks!

I just want to say thank u )
thank you , I have a question : In the Resource-Constrained Project :
a-Time is fixed & resources are flexible
b-Resources are flexible
c-Time is fixed & resources are fixed
d-Time is flexible
Is this considered Resource Leveling or Resource Smoothing? I believe it is Resource Leveling, as the reallocation keep the costs per day constant.
Best sir.😀😀🤟😍🗿thank you sir. 🗿🗿😍😍😍😍
Thank you so much, the best
Thanks Ahmed!! 🙂

what software to use to make the gantt chart and resource histogram to look better for my assignment and how to make it.? please help.
Hey it's drawn with Sketchbook. Full list of hardware and software is here: engineer4free.com/tools
