House Build Critical Path

House build critical path

This critical path diagram organizes a house build from excavation through inspection. Foundation and framing form the main structural sequence. After framing, roofing and service rough-in proceed in parallel and both must finish before final inspection. The network makes the handoff points clear and gives a manager a compact starting point for discussing durations and constraints. Add permitting, procurement, finishes and trade inspections when they affect the actual project. Review the critical sequence whenever a duration or predecessor relationship changes.
