Qno. 1. A Project plan consisting of 10 events having predecessor relationships as under:

Event Immediate Duration Event Immediate Duration

Predecessor (weeks) Predecessor (weeks)
1 - 2 6 3, 5 2
2 1 3 7 3, 4 3
3 2 1 8 3, 7 1
4 2 2 9 7 3
5 2 4 10 3, 6, 8, 9 2
Draw the (a) Bar Chart Diagram (b) Network Diagram for the Project Plan.

Qno. 2. Draw the network for the following case,

i. A and D start at origin

ii. C follows A but precedes G
iii. B follows A but precedes F
iv. H follows D but precedes L
v. E follows B and C
vi. K follows G and H
vii. J follows F but precedes K
viii. K, L and E are terminal activities.
ix. F is independent of C
x. L is independent of J

Qno. 3 (a). The following project is to be represented by a bar chart. The duration for
each activity is in days. Thease are the actual work days. The project commences on
Wednesday, November 15, with five work days a week. Draw the bar chart with the
horizontal scale denoting calendar dates.
Activity 1 8 days
Activity 2 4 days
Activity 3 7 days
Activity 4 9 days
Activity 5 3 days
Activity 6 3 days
Activity 7 14 days
Activity 8 17 days
Activities 1 and 2 can occur concurrently, Activity 3 can take place after activity 2 is
completed. Activities 4, 6 and 3 can occur concurrently. Activity 8 can start 4 days after the
commencement of activity 6. Activity 7 should follow activity 5. Activity 5 can begin
concurrently with activity 8.
(b). On what calendar date can we expect the project to be completed?
(c). On December 3, what is the progress report?

Qno. 4. A Project manager was interested in developing a network for a project involving 20
jobs labeled from A to T. He listed all its predecessors as best as he could determine as
indicated below.
Immediate Immediate
Job Job
predecessor predecessor
A - K G
B - L F, G, K
C - M H, I
D A, B N H, I, J, L
E A, B, C O J, L
F A, B, C P M, N
G C Q O, P
H D, E R O
I D, E, F S Q, R
J F, G T S
Qno. 6. In a construction project, events have been identified as A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, J, K, L
and M. A is the start event, B occurs after A; C succeeds B and precedes L but restrains the
occurrence of G; D occurs after B, before K and restrains C; F succeeds C, precedes H and
restrains E; E succeeds B but precedes J; G success F and precedes H; H precedes L and
restrains J; L occurs after J but before K; M succeeds K. Draw a PERT network. Number the
events according to Fulkerson’s rule.

Qno. 7. Using Fulkerson’s rule, number the events of the network shown in the figure below

Qno. 8. Explain various types of ‘errors’ related to network diagram.
