Shazia,

Yes you can create histogram using cost. You can use either Activity Usage Profile or Resource Usage Profile. Right click on the profile and select cost instead of hours and tick total.

Shazia,

You can assign Resource Curve on each resource. You can also use future buckets if you wish.

Shazia,

It depends on what type of piping activities. Is it for fabrication, installation, welding, jointing, flange, screwed etc...? Or just installation including in-line items such as valves, instrument, support etc…only.



I suggest inquiring your estimator on how he arrived on the hours and cost.

For a start your approach is fine.
