Excel Activity: Project Scheduling and Budgeting


Objective: Enhance skills in project scheduling and budgeting using Excel for civil engin
eering projects.
Instructions:
1. Set Up Your Worksheet:
 Open Excel and create a new workbook.
 Make your own header: “Project Title”, “Owner”, “Address”, etc..
 Label the first row with the following headers: "Task", "Start Date", "End
Date", "Duration (Days)",”Progress”, "Cost per Day (PHP)", "Total Cost (P
HP)".
2. Enter Sample Data:
 In the "Task" column (A), enter any 20 tasks relating to construction.
 In the "Start Date" column (B) and "End Date" column (C), enter the start
and end dates for each task (e.g., 01/11/2024, 15/11/2024, etc.).
3. Create Formulas:
 Duration Calculation: In the "Duration (Days)" column (D), calculate the du
ration for each task by subtracting the start date from the end date. Use t
he formula =C2-B2 for the first task and drag it down. Use “IF” function if
necessary.
 Total Cost Calculation: In the "Total Cost (PHP)" column (F), calculate the
total cost for each task by multiplying the Duration by the Cost per Day. U
se the formula =D2*E2 for the first task and drag it down.
4. Analyze Data:
 Total Project Duration: Calculate the total duration of the project. Use the
formula =SUM(D2:D8) in cell D9.
 Total Project Cost: Calculate the total cost of the project. Use the formula
=SUM(F2:F8) in cell F9.
5. Conditional Formatting:
 Highlight tasks with a duration greater than 15 days. Select the range D2:
D8, go to "Home" > "Conditional Formatting" > "Highlight Cells Rules" > "Gr
eater Than" and set the value to 15.
 Highlight cells in the "Total Cost (PHP)" column (F) with costs greater tha
n 100,000 PHP. Select the range F2:F8, go to "Home" > "Conditional Forma
tting" > "Highlight Cells Rules" > "Greater Than" and set the value to 100,0
00 PHP.
Tasks: -

Modify the start and end dates to see how the project duration changes. Adjust the cost
per day for tasks to see their impact on the total project cost.
Add a Gantt chart to visually represent the project schedule. Do not use existing
template from the internet. Be creative and make your own. Good Luck.
