In Construction planning the major problem is reducing the time- cost and it developed the time- cost trade-off (TCTO) problem moments. The time and cost is always identified with each other and if we assume time as precious as plutocrat (time value of money) TVOM also the dealing with these type of problem is must be easy. In moment’s competitive business terrain, delivering systems in the least possible time, with maximum quality and minimal cost has got a critical issue for design directors. Design time crashing plays an important part in design operation determining which conditioning duration to crash to complete the design in the quested time. TCTO problem in design operation have been traditionally answered by two distinctive approaches like CTM, PERT, Heuristic styles and so on. The relative analysis between mathematically (Linear Programming Method/ Traditional) and CTM is done by using an illustration.
