TILOS – how to schedule power lines projects
TILOS is a very good option for planning such projects because it can automate recurrent tasks insertion and also can connect the schedule with important data provided by reconnaissance survey.
On the vertical time axis, the calendar of the project will be displayed.
The horizontal distance axis will be adjusted to the length of the route and the following important details will be added along it:
- Aerial view of the route, obtained from a CAD system
- Location points and numbers for towers
- Crossings with roads, railways, rivers or other transmission lines
- Sectors for type of terrain, nature of soil strata, name of major towns, villages coming on route
Construction tasks for towers will work on the same distance as the recommended width of the ROW and duration can be calculated by TILOS based on input quantities.
Tasks will be defined only for the first tower. TILOS can automatically insert the same recurrent task for all towers at the location points already defined along the distance axis. Links can also be created between tasks in the same time.
The resulting schedule can be printed out from the time-distance diagram or from the Gantt chart with activities grouped by towers.
