Abstract
Value engineering, is a powerful tool, by which the project budget could be optimized. Value engineering examines function and eliminates
unnecessary cost without affecting quality. It stresses on keeping the
functions of the design element and assure the client requirements, while
reducing the project budget.
According to the Sixth Five-Years Plan in Egypt, the program of educational
buildings includes building of2915 schools of about 39.8 thousand classes, in addition to doing maintenance works for 1250 schools during the plan years.
This program is an update of what is expected termination of schools (585
schools) in 2006/2007 under the electoral program of the President on the
establishment of3500 schools including 48 thousand classes over six years.
from this point, it was essential to’ reduce the high cost of construction
through different techniques of cost reduction or budget optimizing
techniques.
This thesis is inherited to educational buildings in Egypt. It introduces the
value engineering methodology, technique, process and the requirements to
apply it on educational buildings in Egypt in order to make as much savings
as possible. The thesis demonstrates the application of the value engineering.
An ”eight classes” primary school model of Egypt in Educational Buildings
was used as an application of Value Engineering methodology.
