Unit9. Time Control for Construction Projects 9.3 Presenting Project Schedules Communicating the project schedule is a vital ingredient in successful project management. A good presentation will greatly ease the managers problem of understanding the multitude of activities and their inter-relationships. Moreover, numerous individuals and parties are involved in any project, and they have to understand their assignments. Graphical presentations of project schedules are particularly useful since it is much easier to comprehend a graphical display of numerous pieces of information than to sift through a large table of numbers. Early computer scheduling systems were particularly poor in this regard since they produced pages and pages of numbers without aids to the manager for understanding them. In practice, a project summary table would be much longer. It is extremely tedious to read a table of activity numbers, durations, schedule times, and floats and thereby gain an understanding and appreciation of a project schedule. In practice, producing diagrams manually has been a common prescription to the lack of automated drafting facilities. * * 工程管理专业英语Professional English for Construction Management主编：徐勇戈 内容提要 本书素材取自国外近年来年工程管理各个领域的经典教材、著作、论文及计算机网络信息，内容涉及工程管理各领域当前的状况和最新进展。本书内容新颖、覆盖面广、系统性强、可读性好，是学习工程管理专业英语的实用教材。 Contents Chapter 1 The Owner’s Perspective Chapter 2 Organizing for Project Management Chapter 3 Labor, Material and Equipment Utilization Chapter 4 Economic Evaluation of Facility Investment Chapter 5 Bidding and Tendering of Construction Project Chapter 6 Contract Management of Construction Project Chapter 7 Legal Basis of International Projects  Contents (continued) Chapter 8 Construction Planning Chapter 9 Time Control for Construction Projects Chapter 10 Cost Control for Construction Projects Chapter 11 Quality Control and Safety During Information Chapter 12 Model Interoperability in Building Information Modeling (BIM) Appendix
