The first is the "80 hour rule" which means that no single activity or group of activities at the
lowest level of detail of the WBS to produce a single deliverable should be more than 80 hours of effort.The second rule of thumb is that no activity or group of activities at the
lowest level of detail of the WBS should be longer than a single reporting period. Thus if the project team is reporting progress monthly, then no single activity or series of activities should be longer than one month long.The last heuristic is the "if it makes sense" rule. Applying this rule of thumb, one can apply "common sense" when creating the duration of a single activity or group of activities necessary to produce a deliverable defined by the WBS.

Work breakdown structure - Wikipedia deliverable defined by the WBS. There are several heuristics or "rules of thumb" used when determining the appropriate duration of an activity or group of activities necessary to produce a specific deliverable defined by the WBS.

A work package at the activity level is a task that:
can be realistically and confidently estimated; makes no sense practically to break down any further; can be completed in accord Summary
