Exercise 2
• In an aircraft assembly line in which wing and body and engine are
assembled together, the wing is produced in Germany in 10 days then
transferred to the assembly line in UK in 2 days, the body is made in France
in 12 days then transferred in 1 day, while the engines are manufactured in
the US in 15 days and then transferred in 1 day.
After all parts arrive the assembly process starts and takes 7 days then the
landing gear is installed in 2 days then the painting process starts and takes
2 days, after all work is done a final check and test is performed in 4 days,
then the aircraft is ready for delivery.
Determine project activities, dependencies, draw the network diagram and
find the critical path and project duration as well as float for each activity
then represent the project activities on a Gantt chart.
