Abstract
In a decision-making study, design alternatives are compared with respect to cost, performance, and reliability, and the best is selected. Often, due to the time constraints imposed by the design schedule and budget restrictions, the number of design alternatives considered is limited. This research focuses on composite flooring systems for multistory buildings and the application of value techniques to the construction industry. The study uses data that obtained from the RSMeans Assemblies Books for the period 1997–2019. The data obtained from RSMeans consists of assembly cost ($/sf of floor) as the dependent variable; and the structural span (ft.), superimposed load (p.s.f), unit cost of sheet metal ($/LF of sheet), unit cost of concrete ($/CY), unit cost of steel structural ($/ton), and total load (p.s.f) as the independent variables. A simple computer model is designed for recommending the optimal composite flooring system of a multistory building, during the preliminary design stage. The value engineering (VE) team to achieve the VE goals mentioned above can use the model.
