Network Diagram: Sample Problems

This document provides a sample network diagram problem and its solution. It contains: 1) An activity-on-arrow network diagram with 6 activities and their early start (ES), early finish (EF), late start (LS), and late finish (LF) times calculated. 2) Identification of the critical path consisting of activities 1-2, 2-5, and 5-6, which have zero float/slack time. 3) Calculation of the float/slack time for each non-critical path.
