Additional information
by Hazem Hussein (Author)
Comprehensive insights into value engineering principles tailored for electrical systems in construction with real-world examples included throughout
Value Engineering for Electrical Systems in Construction is a comprehensive guide that provides practical tools and methodologies to apply value engineering (VE) principles across the full lifecycle of electrical systems--from early-stage concept design to execution and retrofit. The book features detailed case studies, examples, templates, and checklists that serve both value engineering initiatives and best design practices.
Written by a highly qualified author with extensive experience leading diverse international construction projects, Value Engineering for Electrical Systems in Construction covers:
- Strategies and techniques for value engineering projects in electrical works, focusing on efficiency and innovation
- Structured value engineering framework tailored specifically to electrical systems
- Applications for both new-build and retrofit contexts
- Guidance across MV/LV power distribution, lighting, ELV, ICT, emergency systems, earthing, external infrastructure, BIM integration, and cross-disciplinary coordination
- Professional guidance and best practices to implement VE concepts effectively
- Comprehensive collection of custom-developed VE checklists, decision matrices, and evaluation tools
- Common challenges in electrical engineering and construction, with actionable solutions
- Application of VE principles with focus on regulatory compliance, lifecycle costs, and performance optimization
Value Engineering for Electrical Systems in Construction is an essential reference for professionals involved in designing, implementing, and managing electrical systems in construction projects, including electrical engineers, MEP engineers, project managers, architects, construction managers, cost engineers, and estimators/quantity surveyors.
