About Recommended Practice
129R-23:
Project planning and scheduling professionals
use a variety of project scheduling methods depending on the
type, size, and nature of projects. Linear scheduling methods
(LSM) are typically used on projects wherein the majority of
the scope is made up of highly repetitive work elements along a
horizontal or vertical alignment. Examples of these projects
include pipeline, tunnel, airport runway, highway, transmission
line, road resurfacing, railroad, or high-rise construction
projects. An LSM schedule (also known as a linear schedule,
march chart, or time chainage diagram) is the graphical output
of the LSM. Linear schedules use velocity diagrams, which are
described below, to represent each activity and the progress
rate to be achieved (or the progress actually achieved) over
time. The schedule format typically provides planned and/or
actual production rates on a time-scaled, linear format.
This recommended practice (RP) is intended to
serve as a guideline, not a standard. As a recommended practice
of AACE International, the main objectives of this recommended
practice (RP) are to increase LSM usage and enhance project
management practices by:
Providing an overview of the LSM.
Defining characteristics and applications of
the LSM.
Delineating the steps and main considerations
in developing, updating, and managing linear schedules.
Highlighting main considerations in
interpreting linear schedules.
About AACE Recommended
Practices:
The AACE International Recommended Practices
(RPs) are a series of documents that contain valuable reference
information that has been subject to a rigorous review process
and recommended for use by the Technical Board. RPs are
intended to be the main technical foundation of AACE
educational, and certification products and services. All RPs
are available to AACE members free of charge.
AACE International would like to thank our
sponsor, Turbo-Chart,
for sponsoring the RP 129R-23 webinar.
NOTE: The webinar is free, but registration is
required. CEUs will be available for both members and
nonmembers. You will need to create an AACE International
account prior to registering if you do not already have one.
