Description ID
-
Cannot start before the site is cleared; otherwise, many of the
survey stakes would be lost in the clearing operation
B
Cannot start until the rough grading operation is completed. C
Cannot be done until well is completed drilled. D
Although this might be started earlier, the site contractor prefers to
E
work starting from the pump toward the building site.
After the rough grading, these simple foundations can be installed. C
The water tank cannot be erected until the foundations are poured. G
Cannot be fabricated and installed until the water tank is
H
completed.
The water piping cannot be linked up until both sections (tank
F, I
piping & valves) are completed.
Can be started after rough grading. C
Immediately follows after sewer excavation. K
Can start after rough grading. C
Cannot start until the excavation for manholes is completed. N
Start after the electrical manholes are complete and the completion
L, N
of the sewer line, because that line is deeper than the duct bank.
Can be started after the site is rough graded. C
Can start after both the duct bank and the overhead pole line are
O, P
installed and ready to receive the cable
It is dependent on the completion of the installation of all electric
J, Q
and water lines (pipes & valves).

2. [15points] Determine the critical path of the project path based on your answer on item no. 1 and
explain briefly why it is the critical path.

3. [20points] Scenario. Engr. Juana is working on numerous projects at the same time, and as a result,
he has neglected Project CE, creating delays in the procurement/mobilization of various resources.
Several activities were delayed as a result of this unexpected incident, including:
a. Excavation of electrical manholes; which was completed 14 days after it began; and
b. Installation of tank pipes and valves; which was finished on the 32nd day (or Day 32) of
construction.

3.1. How does the unforeseen events affect the critical path/s?
3.2. How does the unforeseen events affect the project duration?
