1. Conduct both a forward and backward pass using AON notation. What is the estimated total duration for the project? 64 days
2. Identify all paths through the network. AB, AC, CB, BE, EF, DF, GH, HI Which is the critical path? AC
3. Which activities have slack time? D, G, H, I
4. Identify all burst activities A, E and merge activities (E, F), (G, H, I)

C 11 days A
D 5 days B
E 3 days B
F 7 days C
G 3 days D, F
H 2 days E, G
I 1 day H
1. Draw the network as a Gantt chart. 2. What is the critical path? 11 days at activity C Which activities have slack time? A, C, E 3. What would
happen if activities B and D each took 5 extra days to complete instead of the expected duration? How would the critical path change? The critical path will change and shift to 13 days which will actually lead to prolonged activity B i.e. 9+5 which gives 13 days as the critical path.
