Question

A project has only four activities: A, B, C, and D. The duration of these activities are: 120, 114, 110, and 128 days, respectively. Activity A and B have no immediate predecessor. They can start as soon as the project starts. Activity C has activity A and B as its immediate predecessors. Activity B is the immediate predecessor of activity D. No work will be done on weekends and federal holidays. The federal holidays are listed on eCourses. If the project starts at the beginning of January 3, 2017, when will activity C start and finish (actual dates)? You must show brief calculation and explanation.

Explanation / Answer

Since, between activity A and B, A takes more time to complete i.e 120 days, so activity C will start after 120 days from 3 Jan 2017. Weekends off are taken for every sat and Sunday. Federal holidays are also excluded while calculating

So, start date : 23 June 2017

End date: 30 Nov 2017
