// Find the project calendar
var calendar = project.Get(Prj.Calendar);

// Calculate task's finish date with different durations
Console.WriteLine(
    "Start Date: " + task.Get(Tsk.Start).ToShortDateString() + "\n+ Duration 8 hours\nFinish Date: "

    + calendar.GetTaskFinishDateFromDuration(task, new TimeSpan(24, 0, 0)));
Console.WriteLine(
    "Start Date: " + task.Get(Tsk.Start).ToShortDateString() + "\n+ Duration 28 hours\nFinish Date: "
    + calendar.GetTaskFinishDateFromDuration(task, new TimeSpan(28, 0, 0)));
