1. Contractor's Construction Schedule

2. Daily construction reports

3. Differing field conditions reports

4. Special or unusual event reports

B. See Specification 01 33 00 Submittal Procedures for scheduling and tracking submittals using the Submittal Register.

1.2 DEFINITIONS

A. Activity. A discrete part of a project that can be identified for planning, scheduling, monitoring, and controlling the construction project. Activities included in a construction schedule consume time and resources.

1. Critical activities are activities on the critical path. They must start and finish on the planned early start and finish times.

2. Predecessor activity is an activity that must be completed before a given activity can start.

B. Critical Path Method (CPM). CPM is a method of planning and scheduling a construction project where activities are arranged based on activity relationships. Network calculations show when activities can be performed and determine the critical path of the project.

C. Critical Path. The longest continuous chain of activities through the network schedule that establishes the minimum overall project duration.

D. Event. The starting or ending point of an activity.

E. Float. The measure of leeway in starting and completing an activity.

1. Float time is not for the exclusive use or benefit of either the FAA or the Contractor but is a jointly owned project resource that is available to both parties to meet schedule milestones and the Contract completion date.

2. Free float is the amount of time an activity can be delayed without adversely affecting the early start of the following activity.

3. Total float is the measure of leeway in starting or completing an activity without adversely affecting the planned project completion date.

F. Fragnet. A partial or fragmentary network that breaks down activities into smaller activities for greater detail.

G. Major Area. A significant element, such as a separate building or floor of construction.

ANCHORAGE, ALASKA

CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS DOCUMENTATION 01 32 00 - 2
