Total Float = LS - ES
Where LS is Late Start and ES is Early Start
how you determined the timing of activities and the total float?
Total Float: Late Start (LS) - Early Start (ES). Total float is the amount of time a task can be delayed without negatively affecting the project.
A backwards pass in project management occurs when the planned finish date of an activity is later than its successor's planned start date. It helps determine the critical path, total float, free float, and project duration.
no, what determines whether they will float or not is their density
watch it float lol
Construction Scheduling is a process of breaking down a project into smaller activities and the durations of time each will take, then organizing them into an order of actions to be taken to finish the job. Each activity's beginning depends on the completion of a previous activity or event (i.e. you cannot pour a concrete footing/foundation without digging the hole first). The main goal is to determine a total duration of the project, which equals a "critical path" of events that determine the total duration. However, one could argue that the main goal is to determine the series of events or plan of actions to finish the project. Some activities will have some "Float" time in which the duration of said activity is shorter than the amount of time between its predecessor's end time and its successor's start as determined by a critical path. No two schedulers or companies will have the same schedule for a given project, it all depends on what a company or individual is familiar with and what they believe their crews are capable of. Having said that, they will probably be 85-95% similar because of the logic of the construction project.
Critical path method - This is the schedule network analysis technique used to identify the schedule flexibility and the critical path of the project schedule network diagram. The critical path is the longest path (sequence of activities) in a project schedule network diagram. Because it is the longest path, it determines the duration of the project and hence the finish date of the project given the start dateThe Critical Path and Duration of the Critical Path, gives the project manager a clear picture of how long all the activities can take to complete. It also helps him to identify the flexibility in the project schedule by calculating the early and late start and finish dates of each activity on each path. The schedule flexibility of an activity is measured by the positive difference between the late start date and the early start date for the activity and is called float time or total float.
No, volume alone does not determine if an object can float or sink. It depends on the density of the object compared to the density of the fluid it is placed in. If the object is less dense than the fluid, it will float; if it is denser, it will sink.
If it is lower it will float
Slack or Float is the amount of time an activity can get delayed without delaying the overall end date of a project
You can determine if an object will float or sink by comparing its density to the density of the fluid it is placed in. If the object is less dense than the fluid, it will float; if it is more dense, it will sink. By using Archimedes' principle, you can calculate the buoyant force acting on the object to determine its buoyancy.
