Balance the screening stations with the installation crews — conditional result
10 floor-work days with 6 crews; 4 crews take 15 days. Screen for 5 days beforehand. Rework above 12.5% breaks the six-crew deadline.derived

|---|---|
| Scope | Links = 72 × 16 = 1,152; installed modules = 2,304. Screen ceil(2,304/0.95) = 2,426 modules. Station capacity = 4 × 32 × (8/2) = 512 modules/day; ceil(2,426/512) = 5 screening days before floor work. Define W = 1,152 × 0.25 × 1.10 crew-h, about 320 crew-h; use the unrounded product for crew counts. Four crews provide 24 crew-h/day: ceil(W/24) + 1 = 15 floor-work days. Six provide 36 crew-h/day: ceil(W/36) + 1 = 10 days. With six crews, the nine installation days allow 324 crew-h; maximum rework = 324/(1,152 × 0.25) − 1 = 12.5%. Above 12.5%, installation rounds to a tenth day and release moves beyond day 10. |
