The 3D Gantt explained in video

 

The 3D Gantt resulting from the the 3D WBS method allows to identify project interfaces (co-activity, physical, temporal). It is at the same time a time-location diagram.

All the characterics of classical Gantt diagram are taken in charge with what I called the "3D Gantt diagram", simply because anyone know what is a Gantt barchart, and it is almost the same in 3 dimensions. But the 3D Gantt is more powerfull than the classical Gantt, simply because you can identify graphically all the project interfaces as a time location diagram for co-activity interfaces, but, with 3D Gantt you can also identify physical and temporal interfaces.

In a classical Gantt diagram, logical links are supperposed, so you can't see it, whereas with 3D Gantt you can.

Given the historical fact that Henry Gantt did not invent or even like barcharts there pre-dated his work by at least 100 years the whole concept is off to a very bad start – Gantt’s charts were sophisticated production control tools for manufacturing facilities.

Anyone still thinking Gantt invented or used bar charts needs to get up to date and read the materials at: http://www.mosaicprojects.com.au/Resources_Papers_158.html which includes his books and details of his important work as a management consultant. 

Perhaps if people actually called their new charts something accurate they may be taken more seriously.
