Repetitive scheduling method (RSM) and the network models have their own advantages in project scheduling.This paper proposes a method for converting the RSM to the network model and compares the two methods in terms of critical paths,activity criticality and floats.The proposed method establishes a rule for converting all kinds of activities and constraints in RSM to the network model.It can represent the resource continuity which could avoid the difference between RSM and the converted network model in total durations,critical paths and floats in literatures.Besides,it can also display the distance constraint and progress in space and resolves the problem that the network model could not show distance constraints and space conflicts.A re_x005fpetitive project is used as an example of conversion and comparison.The analysis of activity criticality reveals the reason why existing methods could not completely convert the RSM to network models.This method can provide the project managers with a convenient tool to transfer the RSM into the equivalent network model.
