Exercise 2

1. The free float is defined as:


a. The amount of time an activity can be delayed without affecting the following activity.
b.The amount of time an activity can be delayed without affecting total project duration.
2. Total float equals:
a. Late finish minus early finish c. Late start minus early start
b.Late finish minus (early start + duration) d. All of the above
3. State True (T) or False (F):
a. The critical activities can be determined easily when using the bar chart.
b.The network must be continuous from start to end.
c. There’s no dummy activities in the arrow networks,
d.A forward pass is used to determine late start and late finish times.
e. The time for completing a project is equal to the sum of the individual activity times.
4. For the Following project data, answer the following questions:

a. Draw an AOA network and perform forward and backward pass calculations?
b. Draw an AON network and perform forward and backward pass calculations?
c. Tabulate activities ES, EF, LS, LF, TF, and FF.
d. What is the effect of delaying activity D by 3 days?
5. For the following AOA network, determine the following:
a. Calculate ES, LF, & TF for all activities. Identify critical ones.
