32. Task Types
Fixed Units. Fixed Duration. Fixed Work
• Used to calculate duration of tasks and subsequently their finish dates
• Duration = Work / Units
• Task Type determines which piece of the equation will remain “fixed”, and which is
calculated
• Default is fixed units
Task Type If you revise units If you revise duration If you revise work
Fixed Units Duration is recalculated. Work is recalculated. Duration is recalculated.
Fixed Work Duration is recalculated. Units are recalculated. Duration is recalculated.
Fixed Duration Work is recalculated. Work is recalculated. Units are recalculated.
43. General Definitions
3. which activities have no logical relationships with this activity and can take place
at the same ?

77. Link Task..
Finish to Start (FS),
where the first must be finished before the next
begins.
Start to Start (SS), where 2 tasks must start at the same time.
Finish to Finish (FF), where 2 tasks must end at the same time.
Start to Finish (SF) ,
where the start of the first is linked to the completion
of the second (with a lag time specified as well.
77
80. Lead & Lag Time
• Lead time : causes a successor task to overlap a predecessor even though
they are linked finish to start (FS).
• Lag time : allows you to add a delay between the start of the successor and
the end of the predecessor.
80
Simply specify lead or lag time in the Predecessor column.
• Lead time is represented with a minus sign (-)
• Lag time is represented with a plus sign (+).
83. Milestones
Milestones let you gauge your progress through the project.
It’s good practice to include a Start and Finish Milestone for each division/part of your WBS.

91. Tracking Project
To control the variations from actual plan (baseline) we need to track project and
continuously check the health of the project.
• EVM is a financial measurement tool that combines the conflicting aspects of
scope, schedule and cost into a unified set of metrics.
• These metrics can be used for measuring, monitoring, reporting and forecasting
project performance.
• It can be used through all the phases of a project, from initiation to closure.

93. Example
You have a project to build a new fence. the fence is four sided as shown.
Each side is to take one day to build and is budgeted for $1000 per side.
The sides are planed to be completed one after the other.
Today is the end of day three.
• Calculate AC, BAC, CV, CPI,SV, SPI, EAC etc.
