In this study, the concepts of integrated VE analysis assessment is introduced in order to achieve "Design for Deterioration performance" in design VE phase. For this purpose, a framework for fuzzy reliability based LCC and value analysis model using fuzzy logic based approach for breakwaters Projects is suggested. It is anticipated that the methodology Proposed in this paper can also be utilized in the design and maintenance phase of other facilities where decision making is made for the fuzzy reliability based life cycle cost and value analysis.

The role and importance of VE have been enlarged since VE application was mandatory by law in public sector in March, 2000. Public organizations have widened the technological horizon through VE competitions and applied VE technique to private investment projects. Many studies have been carried out on function analysis and VE procedure. In practice it is common that clients make a decision one-sidedly on whether or not VE proposals are selected. The VE procedure itself is not smooth. This study gives some suggestions on VE appraisal procedure and criteria at the last phase on VE process in order to smooth the progress of VE. The results of this study can be used as a tool to improve efficiency in the management of VE.

Function analysis and idea creation phase in Value Engineering(VE) Process is applied to manufacturing Industry for developing functions for elements of products, and in construction come to use various components like process, size of project, spaces as well as function itself due to multi-functional aspect. For this reason, VE applications to the construction industry are considered to be less frequent and efficient than to the manufacturing. To resolve this problem, a new technique of Function Integration Fast(HI FAST) and Hierarchical Value Engineering Concept Modules(HVECM) was made for practical integration and sequence of VE job Plan. Two types of function would be defined In this method, first and second function, during the job Plan process, and two function champions be selected for next creation phase process. For verification of consecutiveness of function analysis and idea creation phase for successful VE project implementation, this methodology was tested under design phase in office and IT Multi-functional building project. Make sure the successful application of this process with this method, need to develop the talent of VE experts and team members for process of function analysis and creation phase.

Recently, Design-build project as delivery system public construction sector tends to be increased according to the Masterplan for promotion of construction technologies, and construction projects are increasing their complexity, variety and scale. And owner's requirements become various. Preliminary design for design eligibility judging of design-build has been designed excessively to get a good point and this tendency includes the elements which is capable of wasting the budget. Because of excessive design, owners require to apply VE study into the design development phase but in the Design-build system, VE application has not been of no effect that owners expect, owing to the characters of lum-sum contracts. The purpose of this study is to propose the plan for effective application of VE in the design development phase in order to solve the problems such as excessive design of preliminary design in the design-build project. This study established plans for VE application through investigating and analyzing VE application case and then proposed the applications in the aspect of regulations and contracts, parties participated in project, VE operation through research for verification of usefulness.

Value Engineering is one of the most effective too13 to achieve the required cost and time reduction, quality and safety improvement. The role and importance of design value engineering is expected to be high, so the research is needed for its effective accomplishment. Therefore, in this research we have suggested the method of checklist development for the effective accomplishment of design value engineering work. Also, the way of development is that derives major elements from drawing information category and from the base of the derived elements, the research lists up the checklist items. At last, it developed design value engineering checklist based the item that listed up throughout the experts.

Since the success or failure of VE projects depends on the capabilities of participants, including owners, construction managers, architects, general contractors and VE experts, it is important to follow systematic procedures. However, it is often the case that only a rough evaluation is performed, or the rough and detailed evaluations are integrated in actual VE tasks. In this case, it is difficult to analyze and evaluate the alternatives in terms of risk, even for the important alternatives. This in turn leads to the so-called returning alternatives where the alternatives proposed in the preceding stage are returned to the original plans in the following stage, and thus the repetitive work for the alternatives often decreases the efficiency of the VE task. In this regard, this study proposed a risk assessment process for VE alternatives in order to minimize the occurrence of returning alternatives based on the systematic analysis and evaluation of VE alternatives. It will increase the efficiency of VE tasks by reduces the number of regression alternatives.

The VE evaluation process, in which the value is composed of the cost and the function, should have a characteristic of quantitative analysis based on specific figures rather than qualitative approach. However, most of the VE evaluation performed domestically have a problem of having no systematic process of quantification of the function, even though the cost is estimated and analyzed quantitatively. Moreover, in addition to the tendency of strong practical experience, the VE evaluation has the problem of limited application of practical scientific analysis caused by declining the suggestion of creative opinions by over quantification or over objectification. This paper presents the suggestions for improvement of VE evaluation processes, which satisfies the aspects of simplification and objectification, without hindering the essence of the evaluation in the practical business point of view.

at the design phase and the effective design phase VE application, it is not sufficient to implement VE study at the design phase in the domestic construction industry. The method for estimating design phase VE consulting Fee regulated in current guideline and the insufficient incentive system according to the result of design phase VE application are major problems among the problems related to the roadblock of the active implementation Design phase VE. In this paper, firstly the current methods for estimating Engineering business consulting fee analogous to design phase VE and the domestic and foreign design VE consulting fee were examined, and detailed problems related to the method for estimating design VE consulting fee were indicated, and the Improvement direction were established. Secondly, the estimating strategy for the design phase VE consulting fee and the payment strategy of incentive according to the result of savings were proposed. Finally, the strategies were verified by interview with the experts.

Current design-build contract is the type of joint venture, but performs by separate party which causes change orders due to the lack of communication between design and construction, so it cannot lead the main object which is the integration of design and construction. Furthermore, the current design-build contract is impossible to reduce the project costs by VE at the design development phase because the design proceeds with the fixed price through bidding. Like these limitless, the analysis results of the case of VE in the design-build projects, several problems that are prevented from active design VE are elicited by the project participants. Meanwhile, Ministry of Construction & Transportation decided to enlarge the VE review system lately. Therefore, in this study, it presented model of design VE partnering of design-build and partnering agreements form to apply design VE and to try to be able to lead the design VE to be more successful in public design-build projects.
