The capacity planning is mostly based on the scheduling . Capacity planning takes place via the assignment of process-related resources. In construction projects this can be done, for. B. columns , employees or devices are used.

A capacity profile superimposed on the process times results from the date calculation. The aim is to achieve a consistently equal utilization of teams and equipment. If the requirements exceed your own capacities, one speaks of capacity peaks. In order to reduce them, this work is often postponed to a later period in order to utilize the free buffer . The buffer is created by the earliest and latest positions. So you don't have to do all the work in the earliest position, as you usually still have capacity reserves available.

Another way of keeping capacity utilization constant is to postpone construction sequences.
