Resource-allocation by histogram and time scale method with PERT and CPM

Sujata Bala, Dr. Sahdeo Mahto

Abstract

Several construction activities can be managed to achieve the profit within limited resources and time. A resource such men power, material, machines, shopping facilities, finance etc. That is required for completing various activities in a project. Thus project management techniques are useful in scheduling and coordinating the various resources by project management can be used to resolve to resource conflicts and also useful in minimising the project duration with in limited availability of resources to make the project profitable. The aim of this paper has to analyze the available resources, then allocating them with levelling and smoothing of the resources by histogram and time scale activity table within certain duration in project.

Keywords

Resource-allocation, resource scheduling, resource levelling, histogram, time-scale.
