Repetitive construction projects are common in India. Several approaches and models have been presented for modelling repetitive construction projects for optimizing scheduling and resource allocation for these types of projects in spite of the above most of the promoters do improper scheduling and not well systematic utilization of man power planning. This paper presents a model that uses PERTMASTER& spread sheet to prepare optimum scheduling for effective utilization of man power resources to repetitive activities in order to minimize the overall project duration in construction projects. The data presented in this paper has been collected from southern region of India, the culture and method of construction being considered in this model. The model presented in this paper is a formulation that can be easily modified and implemented for any type of repetitive project problem, which reduces the modelling time for typical problems extensively. The outcome of the model result will reduce the overall duration of project and fine tune effective utilization of manpower.
