Activity durations are normally estimated in an intuitive and subjective way. All of the following will improve duration accuracy EXCEPT

• A.Look at each activity independently and don't follow specific logic paths when assigning activity durations.
• B.Use the people responsible for performing the work as a resource to assign activity durations.
• C.Divide activities into smaller activities. This will increase activity detail and duration estimate accuracy.
• D.Use gross building square footages. The pluses and minuses all average out.

You are retained by a contractor who asks you to perform a simple as-planned versus as-built analysis (APAB) of a large hydro-electric dam project that took more than five years to complete. Your analysis will form the basis of a change order that requests a time extension. You suggest using a different methodology for quantifying the delay. Which of the following reasons for recommending a different analysis does NOT apply to a simple APAB analysis?

• A.Not suitable for projects with long durations.
• B.Accuracy is increased by inserting delaying events into the as-planned schedule.
• C.Less accurate as the analysis advances through the project.
• D.Not suitable for complicated projects with multiple planned critical paths.

• B.LS.10002 - Lag.7 - l day -> 11-20-03.
• C.LS.10002^ Lag.7 + i day -> 11-20-03.
• D.LS.10002 + 1 day -> 11-29-03.
