Typical Project Sequence
Typical Project Sequence
Notes:
The Process Plant Project Sequence "Chart" is a broad generalization of the major project
activities by the different groups and is not intended to be an absolutely detailed match for every
project. It was prepared specifically for use as a guide in this Training Program for Piping Leads.
To use the Chart on screen go to the first page of the Chart, Place the courser in "Cell" C-1 and
then go to "Windows (in the tool bar above) and click on "Split" This will freeze the left-hand "B"
column. Then you can scroll right to any page and you will still see the discipline designations in
the "B" column. On print-Out Column "B" will be repeted on each page.
The major Engineering and Design disciplines stretch across the pages horizontally. Their
individual activities and tasks remain in their individual horizontal bar. Joint activities are shown
grouped vertically.
The vertical fields are not intended nor should they be interpretive as implying any unit of time
such as Hours, Days, Weeks, Months or Years. They are only there for the presentation of the
data.
Instructions:
These "Notes and Instructions" along with the attached "Chart" are "Locked" and Password
protected. To make any changes you must "Unlock" the individual document first. After the
changes have been completed you should relock the document. The "password" for both
documents is located in "Cell" CO-1 of the Chart file.
