Investigating the Internal Relationship Between Value Engineering Factors in Construction Projects Using Fuzzy DEMATEL Technique

The current economic conditions have entailed the use of rational method and techniques and research and application of new techniques by utilizing advancements in technology in the field of production as well as in every field. Excess cost control requires to be maintained throughout the project life of building beginning from the initial stages of design. Scrutinizing the project well and considering all possible alternatives particularly in design stage are important for achieving optimum cost. In this study, the internal relationship betwee n value engineering factors in construction projects using fuzzy DEMATEL method are applied in construction projects is explained
