Change multiple column to rows using unpivot or pivot

Question

is there any way I could use pivot or unpivot to get the result show in the graph? From the top table structure to the lower table structure. I could do activity hours and desc separately using unpivot but do not know how to join them together.

Looks like a pivot isn't the best bet, try this:
DECLARE @ActivityReport TABLE ([Employee_ID] [int] NULL, [Week] nvarchar(50) NULL, [Hours_Admin] [float] NULL, [Desc_Admin] [nvarchar](200) NULL, [Hours_HelpDesk] [float] NULL, [Desc_HelpDesk] [nvarchar](200) NULL, [Hours_Support] [float] NULL, [Desc_Support] [nvarchar](200) NULL)
insert into @ActivityReport VALUES (1, 'week1', 5, 'desc', 6, 'desc', 9, 'desc'), (1, 'week2', 5, 'desc1', 6, 'desc1', 9, 'desc1'), (2, 'week1', 5, 'desc', 6, 'desc', 9, 'desc'), (2, 'week2', 5, 'desc2', 6, 'desc2', 9, 'desc2')
SELECT employee_ID, week, hours_admin AS activityHours, 'admin_hours' AS activity_type
FROM @ActivityReport
UNION ALL
SELECT employee_ID, week, hours_helpdesk AS activityHours, 'helpdesk_hours' AS activity_type
FROM @ActivityReport
UNION ALL
SELECT employee_ID, week, hours_support AS activityHours, 'support_hours' AS activity_type
FROM @ActivityReport
ORDER BY Employee_ID, week
