CASE 1: VA Condos

Clark Construction is building a set of new condominiums in the Virginia Beach. The project

consists of eighteen buildings, each housing twelve condominiums. Each building will border the

Virginia Beach Golf Course designed by J. M. Architects. The minimum price for a condominium unit

is $300,000, and buyers expect a high-quality project. Response to the initial promotion was so great

that CLARK Construction pre-sold all 216 units based solely on an architect's conception and

schematic plans of the project. One reason for the quick sell-out may have been the -YOU CAN MOVE

IN BY OCTOBER- campaign. As part of this campaign, CLARK promised rebates of $20,000 cash

to all 216 buyers if all the facilities, buildings, and other amenities were not completed by October 15.

As of mid-January, the project is well underway. The following PERT/CPM network details the

precedence for the activities of the tasks remaining to be completed in the project. R and T will be

subcontracted.Three-time estimates (in days) for each of the other activities needed for each condo have been

determined and are given in the following table (Note: all the condos will be constructed concurrently)

You are required to use a full day as the smallest unit for scheduling the activities:
