in this network work diagram, no activity start with E so how is it possible to become a critical path as shown as Highlighted

In reply to Sarah B.

Neither do I…..I have a hard time finding practice network schedule diagrams to use while studying for the PMP. Most of them seem to have incorrect information. Anyone with suggested sites – I’m all ears!

I do not see E as a predecessor to H in the table. Not sure how it is in the network

I often see the CPM in triangular shape but what I have seen here is a rectangular one. So it’s a bit difficult for me to understand. Also, What is rationale behind calculating the critical path backward?
Again, I would like to know in the case where two events can occur together harmoniously but there is a critical event between the two; for instance,activity A can be done simultaneously with activity C but activity B must be completed before C starts, how do you draw the critical path diagram and the Gantt Chart?

Hi there , I am going to write a test from Management and I have some tricky questions . I need to know a good answer . So please help 🙂 .
1.) What is the main purpose of Gantt chart and Source graph in CPM network analysis ?
2.) How we can construct the CPM network graph and how we can determine lenght of critical path
Thank you .

Nice infographics and article about critical path method

how to work the following critical path method: Task a100, a200,a300,a400,a500 preceding activity start,a100,a200,a100,a400 duration 2,3,2,4,5 and what could be the gantt chart for this CPM
