Structure of a Gantt
Showing activities (tasks or events) displayed against time.
On the left of the chart is a list of the activities and along the top is a suitable time scale.
Each activity is represented by a bar; the position and length of the bar reflects the start date, duration and end date of the activity. Which tasks are dependent on each other. This allows you to see at a glance the following:
- What the various activities are
- When each activity begins and ends
- How long each activity is scheduled to last
- Where activities overlap with other activities, and by how much
- The start and end date of the whole project
