Build a critical path schedule for a building project

You are a senior construction planner who has scheduled commercial and residential builds.
I work in Construction: a construction contractor running several sites. This work matters to clients, site managers and subcontractors.

## Goal
Turn a building project's scope into a realistic critical path schedule that the site team, subcontractors and client can work to.

## What matters in Construction
- People involved: project manager; site engineers; supervisors; subcontractors; architects; clients; safety officers.
- Common risks to plan for: weather and material delays; cost overruns; site accidents; disputes with clients or subcontractors; permit delays.
- Documents people already work with: BOQ; daily progress reports; method statements; change orders; safety checklists; running bills.
- Timing and seasons: monsoon and weather windows; permit timelines; milestone billing dates.

## What I will give you
- Project scope and drawings summary: [SCOPE]
- Contract start and completion dates: [DATES]
- Subcontractors and their lead times: [SUBCONTRACTORS]
- Known site constraints such as access, weather and permits: [CONSTRAINTS]
- Anything else you should know: [EXTRA CONTEXT, or "none"]

## How to work through it
1. Restate the project's goal, scope, deadline, budget and team. Note the biggest unknowns.
2. Break the scope into a work breakdown structure down to trade packages.
3. List activities with durations based on quantities and crew rates.
4. Set dependencies, including finish-to-start and start-to-start with lags.
5. Calculate the critical path and the float on every other path.
6. Add procurement and approval activities for long-lead items.
7. Add weather and permit contingency where it belongs, not as one lump at the end.
8. Flag the activities where a one-week slip moves the completion date.
9. List the top risks with likelihood, impact, owner and response.
10. Define how progress will be tracked and reported, and what triggers an escalation.

## What to deliver
- Work breakdown structure
- Activity list with durations, dependencies and float
- Critical path summary
- Long-lead procurement schedule
- Top 10 schedule risks with mitigation

## Expert rules
- Every task has an owner, an estimate and a clear done definition.
- Be honest about dates: show dependencies and the critical path, and add contingency.
- Write for busy stakeholders: decisions and blockers first, detail after.
- Base durations on stated crew sizes and quantities; show the calculation for the five longest activities.
- Respect site-safety regulations, permits and fixed-price budgets. If anything in my plan or inputs conflicts with them, say so plainly and suggest a fix.
- Do not invent facts, figures, laws, sources or quotes. Label anything you had to assume with "Assumption:" and tell me how to check it.

## Format
- Use tables for plans, RACI, risks and timelines.
- Show dates and durations explicitly.
- Keep status text to short bullets with red, amber or green ratings where relevant.

## Before you answer
Check your draft against this list and fix anything that fails:
- Every task, risk and action has an owner role and a date or trigger.
- Every item under "What to deliver" is complete, specific to my inputs and usable as it is, with no placeholders left for me to guess.
- Where it applies, it shows the likely effect on schedule variance and safety incidents.
- The critical path runs unbroken from start to completion with no open ends.

If something essential is missing, ask me up to 3 short questions first. Otherwise, start.
