The value engineering(VE) in construction projects is systematic method which improve quality as well as reduction input cost and as construction VE work extends the range of application, the importance is rising. For this reason studies are needed to enforce design value engineering work systemically and effectively. In this study, we analyzed the problem of the present construction VE processing and deduced the model to be most suitable the work efficiency. As suggested model reflects systemically requirement item of owner and user, it will make approaching direction and standard establishment possible. So it will increase the following function analysis in analyzing step and the effectiveness of creating idea and make successful VE result.

The purpose of this study is to efficiency scheme to design VE through the case studies of construction VE forapartments. The adapted research method includes five case studies of construction VE and analysis of constructionVE practice. The results of this study are as follows 1) For efficiency of design VE, data management system whichis necessary for construction VE database establishment and its application were proposed. 2) Through workingsystem improvement of construction VE, an improvement to design VE performance process was proposed. 3)Consideration factors and main VE items for efficient design VE item selection of apartment buildings wereproposed.

Value Engineering (VE) is an organized process with an impressive history of improving value and quality. VE can be applied to the construction projects with having good study results. The VE study in construction projects gives identification of opportunities to remove unnecessary costs while assuring quality, performance, reliability, and other factors will meet or exceed the clients needs. VE techniques can save money, reduce time, and improve quality, reliability, maintainability, and performance. VE can also make improving of human factors (altitudes, creativity), and team work. According to the results of VE study in recent USA, 5∼35% reduction in initial costs have been made for the construction projects (ROI ranges : 100∼1000). To have successful work results, if possible, VE study shall be considered at project planning stage or basic design stage later than field work stage with application of VE JOB PLAN, multi-disciplinary approach, and proper techniques in respective study phases (pre-workshop / information gathering / function analysis / creativity / judgement and evaluation / development / presentation and implementation) among the detail techniques in many.

To convert the construction industry from 'the high cost, the low efficiency' to 'the low cost, the high efficiency and value-added industry' and to enhance the performance and quality of products while reducing the cost, the related law and guideline were established and promulgated, which regulate that value engineering workshop during the preliminary design and the detail design stage should be a mandatory process. But VE practitioners are still confusing in choosing the proper value engineering process, because processes those are described in the various references use the different terms, steps and activities, even though they have their own specific characteristics. To resolve these confusions, the existing steps and activities of three kinds of the literature, four kinds of the organization's policy and other four kinds of study examples relating to the design VE were examined. And then, the differences and expecting problems were extracted through the comparison and analysis of those materials. After that, VE specialists' opinion through the questionnaire survey were grasped. Based on those studies the improved design VE Job Plan and activity statements were suggested.

Idea creation is the most important step in the overall value engineering (VE) process. Usually the activity is done mostly relying on the experience and knowledge of the experts in the VE team. A more organized approach is needed to find the chance of design improvement during a VE workshop. This study presents an organized approach to increasing the chance of idea creation during the VE workshop. The concept of conflict resolution in TRIZ (Theory of Inventive Problem Solving) is applied to understand the problem area during design improvement. The technical parameters were identified in the problem area to explain the conflicts in design improvement. These technical parameters were used to assist problem solving and improve design functions. A case study was done on a temporary construction operation, and demonstrated that the organized idea creation can help improve the design value of the temporary construction operation.

Design VE system in order to promote the economical efficiency and the functional elevation of construction facilities apply to conatruction over 10 billion from december 2005. But it don't achieve purpose of VE original to maximization of value creation through VE because VE perform formal and result center. This study suggests some idea and analyse implementation of design VE through design VE case of turnkey and alternative project performed in domestic.

Recently the role and the importance of design value engineering is expected to be high, so research is needed for its effective accomplishment. But in domestic arena, the introduction of the history of design value engineering is too short and insufficient in act of research. Therefore in this research we have suggest the standard for the effective accomplishment of design value engineering work. The way is the abstraction many causes. firstly, we analyzed the team project case of value engineering professional instruction. second, we analyzed the cause of problem produced in accomplishment process of design value engineering work through research for the professional field. So from the base of the analyzed content, we have suggest main control factor for the effectiveness of design value engineering work and the following scheme and process of work efficiency optimization.

Value Engineering(VE) is the systematic activity to make a Alternatives for user's needs with an access by function analysis, creative thoughts, and the lowest life cycle cost. However, the current activity called VE is to make a Alternatives by experience and to make a report in similar to VE format. The right understanding of the concept and the process of VE is required for more effective Alternatives and VE activity with reliability.

Value Engineering(VE) process is going to make a series of improvements for the effective construction project management or optimal proposal to improve quality, performance improvement, cost reduction and customer satisfaction. For making the quality model based on better than the architecture that is required in the VE, such a project promoting creative plan, functionality and constructability reflecting the materials and improved construction methods and building life cycle for reviewing the smooth progress of the construction projects may be necessary for management techniques. This study is to establish a management plan in the educational facilities construction process through education institution's recent orders completed by VE case study.

설계VE 프로세스 과정 중 기능분석을 성공적으로 수행하지 위해서는 VE대상의 선정이 중요하다. 그러나 설계VE활동시 대상선정 단계에서 설계VE 집중검토대상을 선정해야 하지만 그 활용성이 미비하였으며, 활용방법에 어려움이 따랐다. 이에 본 연구는 대상선정을 명확하게 하여 차후 기능분석에서 효과적으로 반영할 수 있는 방안으로 SWOT분석을 제안하고자 한다.
