Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) for A millionares mansion with four to five (4-5) high level tasks and an average of four to five (4-5) sub-tasks for each high level task.

An assembly task was broken down into four elements, and timed using the continuous timing method.  The resulting data and performance ratings are provided below.  Calculate the total standard time for this task.     Element 1 2 3 4   Watch Time 1.85 2.96 5.42 7.10   Observed Time           Rating 95 105 120 115   Normal Time         Total ST Standard Time

The following Table 1 contains a list of activities, with precedence requirements and crash costs. All start and finish times and crash costs are on a per-week basis. Table 1 Activity Predecessor Crash Time Normal Cost (Weeks) Normal Time Crash Cost (Weeks) $ A 10 7 2000 2600 A 12 1500 2000 C A 16 12 2200 300 D 8 7 2500 3000 E C 13 10 1950 2275 F D 9. 8 800 1000 G E, F 24 29 3650 4000 H G 17 14 1200 1800 a) Determine the project cost and duration without crashing. b) Determine the least expensive project cost if the duration is to be 10% shorter than normal project duration. c) Determine the least expensive project cost if the duration is to be 20% shorter than normal project duration.

3.7 Task time estimates for a production line setup project at Robert Klassen’s Ontario factory are as follows: Activity A, B,C,D,E,F,G. Time(in hours) 6.0,7.2,5.0,6.0,4.5,7.7,4.0 Immediate Predecessors -,-,A)B,C)B,C)D)E,F) a. Draw the project network using AON. b. Identify the critical path. c. What is the expected project length? d. Draw a Gantt chart for the project.

NB: Answer all the questions within 30 mins  Table 1 Activity Predecessor Duration (weeks) A - 5 B A 4 C A 5 D B 6 E C 3 F D, E 4   Use Table 1 to calculate the following:   Draw the resultant Gantt chart. Construct the PERT/CPM chart for the tasks as they appear in Table 1.[1] HINT: Do not forget the Start Date and Finish Date for each task. Indicate at minimum three dependent task patterns. Indicate all the multiple successor tasks. Indicate all the multiple predecessor tasks. Show the critical path of this project. Justify why the given critical path is valid.

James Lawson has decided to run for a seat as Congressman from the House of Representatives, District 34, in Florida. He views his 8-month campaign for office as a majorproject and wishes to create a work breakdown structure (WBS) to help control the detailed scheduling. So far, he has developed the following pieces of the WBS:                                                   Help Lawson by providing details where the blank lines appear. Are there any other major (Jevel-2) activities to create? If so, add an ID no. 1.6 and insert them.
