  • 4) Question.

    Bar chart is suitable for 

    Answer.

    Bar chart:

    • Firstly introduced by Henry Gantt around 1900 AD.

    Features of Bar chart:  

    • It is a pictorial chart.  
    • It has two coordinate axes, the horizontal coordinate represents the elapsed time, and vertical Coordinate represents the job or activity to be performed.
    • The beginning and end of each bar represent the starting and finishing time of a particular activity respectively.
    • The length of bar shows the time required for completion.
    • Bar charts are useful and used to detect the amount of resources needed for one particular project.
    • Resource aggregation is done by adding resources vertically in the schedule.
    • The purpose of this aggregation is to estimate the work production and establishing estimates for man-hour and equipment needed.
    • Bar chart diagrams are useful for the only smaller and simpler conventional project,

    Especially construction and manufacturing projects, in which time and cost estimates can be made with fair degree of certainty. 

    Limitation of bar chart:

    • Difficult to construct Bar chart for the large and complex project due to limitations of the size of paper.
    • The relationship between activities cannot be shown easily.
    • Difficult to find critical path, critical activities, and floats, etc.
    • Difficulties in seeing immediately and exactly overall project duration if changes occur in any particular activity.
    • It cannot be used as a control device.
    • Long-duration project may seem to be most important which may not be correct.
    • Difficult to manipulate and make corrections i.e. updating means to redraw the entire chart again
