    This resource provides a worked example to help understand activity-on-arrow diagrams. It shows a diagram for an industrial building project and asks to determine the early start of event J. The solution finds the 3 possible paths to J, calculates the duration of each path, and determines that path 1, with a duration of 31 days, has the highest duration and therefore the early start of J is 31 days. It concludes by asking the reader to determine the critical path for this project.

    ADDITIONAL RESOURCE 1:
    ACTIVITY-ON-THE-ARROW DIAGRAMS WORKED EXAMPLE
    STUDY YEAR 2022

    This resource is to assist you in understanding the interpretation of Activity-on-the-


    Arrow diagrams discussed in Chapter 12 of the Study Guide.

    Example 1

    An Activity-on-the-arrow diagram is shown below for a complex industrial building


    project. Durations are in days:

    Determine the early start (ES) of event “J”.

    Solution

    Step 1: Find all possible paths that lead to event J

    Path 1: Start-A-E-H-J

    Path 2: Start-B-E-H-J

    Path 3: Start-C-F-I-H-J

    Step 2: Determine the longest duration paths that lead to “J”

    Path 1: 4+15+7+5 = 31 days

    Path 2: 6+8+7+5 = 26 days

    Path 3: 6+4+2+5+5 = 22 days

    Step 3: Determine the path with the highest duration

    Path 1 has the highest duration hence ES of event “J” is 31 days.

    Exercise:
    Now you determine the Critical Path for this project and send me your solutions!
