Implementation of value engineering in design building for the construction of general hospitals in Jembrana Regency

Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2020
Abstract The choice of construction design is very important to do because it can show the quality of the building, and produce development at an efficient and optimal cost. One of them can be done by value engineering. According to Zimmerman and Hart in Hutabarat (1995) value engineering is a systematic approach to achieving the best ...
