I've seen S curves done on many different variables, including
variations on cost (capital cost usually doesn't work because it can
fluctuate so much month to month, gives a jagged S curve), yds of
concrete, metric tons of structural steel or rebar, etc. And on
manhours. I'd suggest you base yours on manhours of labor. Others might
have equally valuable suggestions.
To get the S curve, you need to get a view in Project showing manhours,
then copy and paste the data into Excel (a copy, Paste Special, Paste
Link will hotlink the data), then create your graph.
Hope this helps in your world.
