Expert Solution

Step 1

A network diagram is a visual representation of a project which helps identify the activity relationship using nodes and arrows. A forward and backward passing table helps to visualise the ES, EF, LS, LF and Slack values using the standard form of passing techniques. A slack value indicating the difference between LS and ES which representing the available time in each activities that ready to adjust the starting and ending of an activity without affecting the total project duration. The construction of network diagram will be like given below Using the given activity table.
