The activity duration, early start, early finish, late start, and late finish (in weeks) for activities P, Q, R, and S are shown in the following figure. The interfering float of activity R (in weeks, in integer) is _______ .
View Solution
From the network diagram:
Activity \(R\):
- Duration = \(3\) weeks
- Early start (ES) = 12
- Early finish (EF) = 15
- Late start (LS) = 24
- Late finish (LF) = 27
Total float (TF): \[ TF = LS - ES = 24 - 12 = 12. \]
Free float (FF):
Free float is the amount of delay allowed without delaying the earliest start of its successor.
Successor of \(R\) is \(S\), whose ES = 21.
Thus, \[ FF = ES_{S} - EF_{R} = 21 - 15 = 6. \]
Interfering float (IF): \[ IF = TF - FF = 12 - 6 = 6. \]
Final Answer: \[ 6 \] Quick Tip: Interfering float shows the delay that affects only the float of succeeding activities, not the entire project.
