Calculate the float

Float, or slack, refers to a given task's flexibility. It shows how much the task can be delayed without impacting subsequent tasks or the end date of the project. Critical tasks have zero float. Their dates are set.

How to determine the two types of float:

  • Total float is the time an activity can be delayed without impacting the project finish date. Total float = LS - ES or LF - EF .
  • Free float is how long an activity can be delayed without impacting the following activity. Free float = ES (next task) - EF (current task)
