Please draw the Critical Path Method for this using the slab cycle activities

SCHEDULING USING THE CRITICAL PATH METHOD Employed by Seymour Budd Construction as a project manager on a high rise building, you are responsible for the preparation of the project's schedule. The construction schedule is very detailed and involves several hundred tasks, however in order to make it more manageable, you have broken it down into various components. Based upon the input you have had from the sub-trades, your site superintendent, and past performance records of the company, you have identified the activities required and corresponding durations for the complete cycle of constructing a typical floor slab (see page 3 ). Your job is to prepare a CPM schedule that will show the sequence of constructing a typical floor slab. You have already determined that if you are going to complete this tower on time, your schedule is going to have to show that typical floors can be constructed one per week, without any overtime (ie. one week consists of eight hours per work day and five work days per week). Based upon specific concrete mixes, the following constraints will apply to the stripping of forms: - Walls and columns require a minimum of 16 hours following the end of pouring to cure before stripping - Suspended slabs require a minimum of 72 hours of curing following the end of the pour (you can walk on the slab and set forms the day after you pour the slab) Each concrete pour is to be completed in one continuous pour (eg. Once you start a wall or slab, it cannot be stopped part way through and then finished off the next day). Gang forms are flown off the deck and stored at the base of the building when not in use. Cleaning and oiling of the gang forms can be done any time after the gang forms are stripped. BLDT 1031 - Assignment 3 - Critical Path Method 1 Immediately after the "flyforms" have been flown to the next level, shoring under the last slab must be put in place until the concrete can attain its specified strength. Safety handrails are also required to be installed immediately around the perimeter of the slab that is being re-shored. The flyforms have handrails built into the perimeter of the deck. The stairs for the stairwell are going to be steel prefabricated stairs; therefore, can be excluded in the scheduling of this slab cycle. What do you need to do? Your schedule, using Critical Path Method, is to be NEATLY drafted, using the conventions discussed in the lectures. The schedule shall be laid out on one piece of paper as big as required. Each node shall be approximately 2 square inches (or as long as I can read them). The nodes can be in whatever shape you like. Each node must show the following information: - Activity, duration, early start, early finish, late start, late finish, \& float time Highlight the critical path(s) and identify any restrictions in terms of the day(s) of the week that the slab pour must take place on, in order to maintain the weekly production of a slab. This CPM schedule is to be completed and submitted in Week No. 10. Neatness \& Presentation counts for 20% of the marks.
