Project Network


1. **Stating the problem:** We need to determine which network diagram correctly represents the project activities and their immediate predecessors for Oak Dale LLC. 2. **Understanding the data:** The activities and their immediate predecessors are: - A: no predecessor - B: no predecessor - C: no predecessor - D: predecessor A - E: predecessor B - F: predecessor C - G: predecessor D - H: predecessors E and F 3. **Rules for network diagrams:** - Activities with no predecessors start the network. - Each activity must be connected to its immediate predecessor(s). - Activities with multiple predecessors (like H) must have arrows coming from all those predecessors. 4. **Constructing the network:** - Start with A, B, and C as initial nodes. - D follows A. - E follows B. - F follows C. - G follows D. - H follows both E and F. 5. **Conclusion:** The correct network diagram is the one that shows: - Three starting nodes A, B, C. - Arrows from A to D, B to E, C to F. - Arrow from D to G. - Arrows from E and F converging to H. This matches the project dependencies exactly.
