Sample text

The advent and development of personal computers and planning software packages specially written for them allowed the planning of a large construction project to be done on site. The other effect was that these affordable, small computers and planning systems spread into other industries and onto smaller projects. Critical path diagrams and barcharts appeared on walls in offices throughout the world. Precedence Diagram Method Networks (PDMs) At the turn of the millennium, the Precedence Diagram Method (PDM) supplanted the Arrow Diagram Method (ADM) form of network as the preferred planning method for CPMs.

The Activity-on-Arrow programme produces an arrow network in which each node represents either the beginning or end of a discrete activity and the arrow linking the nodes is the activity. The nodes are numbered and the activity is identified by the numbers of the nodes at the start and the finish. 1 above). Activity ‘Excavation’ is identified as Activity 21–22. Node 21 represents the beginning of Activity 21–22 and node 22 the end of Activity 21–22. Node 22 is also the start of Activity 22–23. This demonstrates the logic inherent in the Activity-on-Arrow, which is finish-to-start.

It is often used in the initial stages of delay analysis to compare planned and actual progress so as to identify problem activities. Care is required, since the implicit assumption that the planned durations were an accurate and still valid estimate, may not be correct. The second type of programme, the network, is a model not only of the activities and their durations, but of their interdependence and association with the completion of the project. The most common network programme is the critical path method (CPM), which models the construction logic links between the activities.
