Here you will do, not only Project planning, but also you can manage your resources so that you can reduce losses and make your plans and schedule more effectively,
MSP (Microsoft Project) is a project management software that gives an easy and simple interface to develop plans, assign resources to tasks, track progress, manage budgets and analyze workloads.

The following stages are adopted in Microsoft Project: -
1. Developing Plans

Here I am providing an example table of Tasks so that you will easily understand how we schedule each and every task on site: -
In the Table you can see the Whole construction of the Residential Building should have to complete within 152 days, in the table I have provided an example of scheduling from General conditions to the Foundation part of the building. This same pattern of scheduling is adopted while working in MSP.
There are many more things you can do with MSP, like Resource Allocation, Weightage Calculation of Every Event, Risk Calculation, etc.
