I. INTRODUCTION

In this project planning, we will outline the key aspects and considerations

involved in the design and construction process. We will address various components,

such as architectural design, interior layout, landscaping, sustainability measures, and the

integration of local cultural elements. Additionally, we will emphasize the importance of

adhering to regulatory requirements, budget constraints, and project timelines to ensure a

smooth and successful execution.

Collaboration and effective communication will be vital throughout the project, as

we work closely with stakeholders, architects, engineers, contractors, and local

authorities. By leveraging the expertise and insights of all involved parties, we can

achieve a cohesive vision that fulfills the expectations of our clients and enhances the

overall appeal of Macatiw, Alaminos City.

II. OBJECTIVES

 To develop a comprehensive architectural plan for the rest house that meets the

client’s requirements and local building codes.

 To build the structural framework of the rest house, including walls, floors, and

roof.

 To prepare a detailed cost estimate and budget for the construction project.

 To hire skilled contractors and construction workers for the various stages of the

project.
  Develop a detailed project budget that accurately accounts for all construction

costs, materials, furnishings, and professional services required for the rest house.

 To implement an efficient electrical system for the rest house, including wiring,

outlets, and lighting fixtures.

Now, we can construct the PERT/CPM network diagram and determine the

critical path by calculating the earliest start time (ES), earliest finish time (EF),

latest start time (LS), latest finish time (LF), and total float (TF) for each activity.
 Here’s a simplified representation of the PERT/CPM network diagram for

the rest house construction project:

Using the PERT/CPM network diagram, we can calculate the critical path by determining

the longest path in terms of duration. The critical path activities are those with zero total float

(TF), meaning any delay in these activities will cause a delay in the project completion time.

Based on the provided durations, the critical path for the rest house construction project is

as follows:

A–B–C–D–E–F–G–H–I–J–K–L–M–N–O–P–Q–R–S–T–U–V

– W – X – Y – Z – AA – BB – CC – DD – EE – FF – GG
 The estimated total duration of the project can be calculated by summing up the durations

of activities along the critical path:

Total Duration = Duration(A) + Duration(B) + Duration(C) + … + Duration(FF) +

Duration(GG)

Total Duration = 1 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1

+1+2+3+1+1+1+1+2+1+1+1+1

Total Duration = 48 days

Therefore, the estimated duration of the rest house construction project is 48 days,

considering the activities and their dependencies provided.
