• The probability that a particular activity will lie on the critical path. This is of interest since the longest or critical path through the network may change as activity durations change. The disadvantage of Monte Carlo simulation results from the additional information about activity durations[r]
during construction. This contingency amount may be included within each cost item or be included in a single category of construction contingency. The amount of contingency is based on historical experience and the expected difficulty of a particular construction project[r]
item of work was underestimated in amount, so that a high unit price on that item would increase profits. Since lump sum contracts are awarded on the basis of low bids, it is difficult to challenge the low bidders on the validity of their unit prices except for flagrant violations. Consequently reme[r]
Of course, numerous different activity hierarchies can be defined for each construction plan. For example, upper level activities might be related to facility components such as foundation elements, and then lower level activity divisions into the required construction operation[r]
