BASIC TERMINOLOGY IN CONSTRUCTING PERT/CPM

1. Project Network Diagram:- It is a Pictorial representation of the sequence in which the project work can be done2.Activity:- Chunk Of Work.3.Slack/Float Activity:- it is that type of Activity which can be started earlier or finished later without affecting the time duration of the Project

4. Slack/ Float of an Activity:- It is the time duration for which an activity can be slacked/Floated.5.EST:- Earliest Start time of an activity.6.LST:- Latest Start time of an activity.7.EFT:-Earliest Finish time of an activity.8.LFT:- Latest Finish Time of an activity.9.Critical Path:- It is the largest path or sequence of Activities (in terms of Activity Time Duration), through the Network Diagram.

CONSTRAINTS WHICH EFFECT SEQUENCING OF PROJECT ACTIVITIES

There are Four type of constraints which effect the sequence of Project Activities:-1. Technical constraints.2. Management constraints.3. Inter Project constraints.4. Date Constraints.

ACTIVITIES DEPENDENCIES

A dependency is a relationship that exist between activities. To say that Activity B depends on Activity A. It means Activity A produces a deliverable which is needed in order to do the work associated with Activity B. there are Four type of Activity Dependencies.

ACTIVITIES DEPENDENCIES

1. Finish to Start (FS):- When A finishes B start.

2. Start to Start(SS):- Activity A & B Start Together

ACTIVITIES DEPENDENCIES

3. Start to Finish (SF):- Activity B can only finish when Activity A has Started.

4. Finish to Finish (FF):- Activity A and Activity B finish at the same time.
