    Dear Arun,

    Your question is not very clear. You need to specify following
    a.List of activities.
    b.Sequence of activities
    c.Resources
    d.Durations

    then you develope the schedule.

    With kind regards,

    Samer

    Maybe it is useless, production rates without crew definition is meaningless.

    1-Production rates are dependent on the crew composition.
    2-Crew composition and output is not limited to labor but to tools and equipment.

    No wonder so many schedules out there that make no sense, production rates taken from the air without any consideration to the manpower loading, tools and equipment used.

    The following production rates include not only placement but also forms, rebar installation, placement and finishing. So you got to start with a clear definition on what is included and what is not, then you need to know your crew composition. What if you use two crews, what if you use an unbalanced crew that provides you with more production per day but with a lower productivity?

    production rates

    If PP is not to provide the information as to make any sense, better not to provide it. Without crew composition production rates can be anything.

    Look at the following PP production rate.
    Concrete Placement - 16.0 - m3/day
    For placing a 1,000 m3 mat foundation this translates into 62 days of concrete placement !

    Just don’t use them.
    hand excavation
