S- Curve S- Curve * One of the most important planning and control tool is the “S” Curve which shows value of work done. Value of work done is the best measure of progress. * Once the contract has been awarded, it is a fairly simple matter to estimate the “value” or expenditure on each activity shown on a detailed bar chart. S- Curve * By analyzing the nature of ea ty, one can estimate the way in which this value will be distributed on, say, a monthly basis. * These amounts may then be summed to give the total estimated monthly value, and the figures plotted in graphic form. How to Construct the “S Curve” + it is weil known that the rate at which useful work is done is slower at the beginning and end of a project than in the middle, and thus these curves have a characteristic “S” shape. i RR eyER How to Construct the “5 Cane” |List aii major items of work with the '|corresponding < rams, CONtract amount. ——— How to Construct the “S Curve™ [aaa RT flor To get relative weight, divide contract amount for each item of work by the total contract amount, multiply by 100. + Relative Weight = 3,000/13,000 = 0.2307 x 100 = 23.07 % (Tpaae OF aR] oa | al ruinsnes How to Construct the “s Curve™ Then, get the percentage of wor period, thus 7 Work = No. of months for that period/Total no. of mos. period) Brickwork Carpentry PC Services Get the total value of work per period and record on the space: schedule (this Exam: Schedule The era Frnt) as 20.01 3/6/2013 * ern (COMULATEVED I ; To get cumulative schedule, add the value of work in the 2 2M period, ate, For the 3° month 7.69 + 15.38 = 23.07 23.07 + 20.01 43.08 SEATWORK Construct S Curve 3/6/2019
