Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

I see no one has replied to your question for a week or more, so here is an answer.

What do you mean by "physical" S curve? What is it exactly that you are wanting to plot?

If you want to draw a graph you just need two axes and some data.
The common S curves are Cumulative Cost and Cumulative Work (hours) with time on the independent, horizontal axis.
You could plot cumulative m3 of concrete or cumulative bricks or cumulative metres of pipe in the trench, against time. But if whatever you are trying to graph doesn’t have any data associated with it then you are all out of luck.
