   LSM is used mainly in the construction industry to schedule resources in repetitive activities commonly found in highway, pipeline, high-rise building and rail construction projects. These projects are called repetitive or linear projects.

3. Critical chain project management - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_chain_project...

   Instead, we monitor the buffers created during the planning stage. A fever chart or similar graph can be created and posted to show the consumption of buffer as a function of project completion. If the rate of buffer consumption is low, the project is on target. If the rate of consumption is such that there is likely to be little or no buffer ...

Meanwhile, the high rate of inflation was eroding construction budgets. [7] A 4-5 year project schedule might see the buying power of appropriated funds for building projects reduced significantly.

6. Submittals (construction) - Wikipedia

   This is one of the first steps that is taken by the contractor after execution of the construction contract and issuance of the "Notice to Proceed". The submittal process affects cost, quality, schedule, and project success.

7. Silt fence - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silt_fence

   Silt fence installed up-slope of a vegetated stream buffer. A silt fence, sometimes (misleadingly) called a filter fence, [1] is a temporary sediment control device used on construction sites to protect water quality in nearby streams, rivers, lakes and seas from sediment (loose soil) in stormwater runoff.

8. Float (project management) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Float_(project_management)

   project completion date ("total float"). Total float is associated with the path. [2]: 508 [1]: 183 If a project network chart/diagram has 4 non-critical paths, then that project would have 4 total float values. The total float of a path is the combined free float values of all activities in a path.
