Activity On Arrow Example

The document provides a precedence diagram and durations for 9 activities (A-I) in a project. It asks to draw the corresponding activity-on-arrow (AOA) network and calculate various timing parameters using critical path method (CPM). Specifically, it asks to identify the number of paths, all paths, longest path, project duration, critical path, early/late start/finish times and total/free slacks.

Activity on Arrow Network

The following table shows the precedence relationship among the WBS activities of a project:

IMMEDIATE DURATION
ACTIVITY
PREDECESORS (days)
A -- 3
B -- 8
C A 4
D B,C 6
E C 5
F D, E 3
G E 4
H F 2
I H, G 5

Using the data above, pleased create the corresponding AOA network in the dotted area.

AOA Network

According to the AOA network: How many paths are in this project? (A1); which are these paths (sequence of activities, including
dummy ones if necessary)? (A2) What is the length of all paths? (A3); which is the critical path? (A4); what is the length of the
project? (A5)

ANSWER

A1

A2,A3

A4

A5
Critical Path Method
Using the same information from the previous page, please create again the AOA network and, using the Critical Path Method, fulfil
the table at the bottom of this page.
