Explain all parts Colonial State College is considering building a new multipurpose athletic complex on campus. The complex would provide a new gymnasium for intercollegiate basketball games, expanded office space, classrooms, and intramural facilities. The following activities would have to be undertaken before construction can begin. Activity Description Immediate Predecessor Time (weeks) A Survey building site   5 B Develop initial design   9 C Obtain board approval A, B 13 D Select architect C 3 E Establish budget C 5 F Finalize design D, E 14 G Obtain financing E 11 H Hire contractor F, G 9   A) Draw a project network. (Submit a file with a maximum size of 1 MB.)   B) Identify the critical path. (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list.)   C) Develop the activity schedule for the project. Activity Earliest Start Latest Start Earliest Finish Latest Finish Slack A           B           C           D           E           F           G           H             D) Does it appear reasonable that construction of the athletic complex could begin one year after the decision to begin the project with the site survey and initial design plans? What is the expected completion time for the project? The expected completion time is ____ weeks, which is (less /greater) than 1 year

Milwaukee Paper Manufacturing will install an advance computerized air pollution control equipment in its facility. It had identified eight activities that needs to be performed for the project to be completed. Refer to the table below for the details of the activities. Activity Description Immediate Duration Predecessor (Weeks) S A Build internal component 2 B Modify roof and floor 3 с Construct collection stack A D Pour cement and install frame A, B E Build high-temperature burner с F Install pollution control system с G Install air pollution device D, E 5 H Inspect and test F, G 2 Do the following: a. Develop a network diagram for the project using AON convention. b. Determine the project completion time, the critical path, and the slack time for each activity. c. Suppose the plant manager has been given only 12 weeks to install the new pollution control equipment. Determine which activities are to be crashed, and by how much, to meet the 12-week due date. Use the information in the…

Problem 3: Taken from Exercise 5 from section 8.4 of Wayne Winston Operations Research. Consider the (simplified) list of activities and predecessors that are involved in building a house. Draw a project network and determine the minimal number of days needed to build a house using the Bellman-Ford algorithm. Exhibit a corresponding critical path. Activity A B C D E F G Description Build foundation Build walls and ceilings Build roof Do electrical wiring Put in windows Put on siding Paint house Immediate Predecessors A B B B E C, F Duration (Days) 5 8 11 5 4 6 3

What is the purpose of a feasibility study in the initial stages of a project?

Construct this problem. Draw a network diagram, determine the early start, early finish, late start, late finish, and slack times for each activity (table), determine how long the project will take, and which activities are on the critical path.
