Gantt chart: horizontal bars for each activity along a time scale. Simple to prepare and understand. Limitations: does not show interdependencies between activities; does not identify critical path; difficult to update for large projects. CPM network analysis overcomes these. Progress is shown by shading bars. S-curve shows cumulative cost vs time.
