Abstract |
|
In recent era of project management there is demand of completing project on time or in some cases before time. To meet the schedule deadline at minimum cost and effort is matter of importance. Present paper explains how to optimize activity crashing with the help of Solver in Microsoft Excel. In order to explain the scenario more effectively data of completed construction site has been used. Also an effort is made to reduce its actual duration by crashing its critical activity optimally to achieve required results with satisfying budget constrain. This paper may help any construction related person to use linear programming in excel and manage schedule and resources effectively. |
