Structure value engineering using ETABS for midrise building

Value Engineering is a creative, planned, structured approach and has the goal of identifying and optimizing the cost efficiency of a job. This research aims are to find some innovations or alternative ideas that will be used with the aim of lower cost efficiency than the cost before the application of value engineering by prioritizing the quality and quality of work. To support the results, ETABS modeling application is used to design alternatives that will be to calculate. As a result, after applying the value engineering to the Employees Mess Building project, the total saving cost that can be done as a whole is Rp2,092,778,048, - with a percentage saving cost of 39,4% for upper structure costs. Based on the results obtained, the most efficient beam and column structure uses Alternative 1, reinforced concrete and the floor slab structure uses Alternative 2, Half Slab Precast.
