Title: How to calculate project buffer time in PDM diagram with negative lag in FS relationship types between tasks

Authors: POŁOŃSKI, M.

Keywords: Precedence Diagramming Method (PDM), relationship, negative lag, project buffer

Abstract: The aim of the article was to present a method of calculating time of a Project Buffer when in PDM diagram in FS relationships time lags had occurred as positive and especially negative. Possible means of positive and negative lags elimination were considered, three ways of conducting calculations were chosen. In the next part, the author showed two examples of calculations based on particular constructional schedules. Methods of conducting calculations as well as its outcomes were interpreted. The author also pointed out the necessity to verify proposed method of calculating the size of project Buffet on further examples and to prepare accurate algorithm to rebuild relationship network which is one of the elements of proposed method.
