Key Points

  • Shows where dependencies attach to an activity or milestone.
  • Used in precedence diagramming; relationships (FS, SS, FF, SF) connect at nodes.
  • Often displays details such as activity ID, name, duration, and dates.
  • Serves as the building block of the schedule network used for critical path analysis.
