Abstract

The study focuses on implementing value engineering concepts in an Industrial project with the goal of achieving better quality at a lower cost. The construction industry is known for its challenges in balancing factors such as money, time, and quality. However, by adapting modern techniques and tools, such as value engineering, these factors can be effectively balanced. Value engineering is an efficient tool that aims to enhance construction quality while minimizing costs. It involves analyzing the basic functions of a project and scrutinizing and eliminating any unnecessary elements. In this thesis, the value engineering study is conducted using the Function Analysis System Technique (FAST) tool, which aids in functional analysis. The project study follows a step-by-step process to achieve the desired results. By implementing value engineering concepts in the construction of Industrial projects, the thesis aims to optimize the use of available resources and eliminate any unnecessary expenses. This approach helps in identifying alternative solutions and design modifications that can enhance quality and reduce costs. Ultimately, the goal is to construct an industrial building that meets high-quality standards while maintaining affordability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
