Abstract

The contemporary domestic construction landscape has witnessed a contraction, primarily attributed to the operational challenges faced by construction entities and a downtrend in the initiation of new projects. In light of this, domestic construction enterprises are ardently seeking avenues to economize whilst simultaneously amplifying the quality across diverse construction genres. Value engineering (VE), heralded for its prowess in not only cost mitigation but also in accelerating project timelines and bolstering construction quality, has been extensively adopted in refining finishing tasks. However, its application to framework enhancements remains conspicuously limited. Particularly in factory edification, framing emerges as a pivotal process exerting significant influence over the entire construction continuum. Thus, it becomes imperative to integrate VE techniques at the inception phase of framing. This would facilitate a meticulous examination of design schematics and on-site conditions, paving the way for alternative strategies that condense construction durations, economize on costs, and augment work efficiency, all the while upholding paramount standards of quality and safety. Such a venture stands to be foundational in expediting construction timelines, fostering economic efficiency, and buttressing construction safety protocols.

최근 국내 건설산업은 건설업체의 경영난과 물량 감소로 인해 위축되고 있다. 국내 건설사들은 건설시장에서의 경쟁 우위 확보를 위해 모든 공종에 대해 원가절감 및 품질향상을 위한 노력을 기울이고 있다. 가치공학(VE) 기법은 건축공사에서 원가절감뿐만 아니라 공기 단축과 품질향상을 위한 도구로 활용되는데, 골조 공사 분야에 적용되는 성과가 상대적으로 미미한 실정이다. 공장 건설에서 골조 공사는 전체 공정에 큰 영향을 미치는 주요 공정이므로 골조 공사 계획단계에서 VE 기법을 도입해 설계도서와 현장 여건을 분석하여 품질과 안전을 확보하면서 공사 기간 단축, 원가절감, 작업성을 높일 수 있는 대안을 개발할 필요가 있다. 본 연구는 공기 단축, 원가절감, 시공 안전성 확보를 위한 기초연구가 될 것으로 기대된다.
