INTRODUCTION
Value engineering refers to the systematic approach that has been prepared in order to
make the project highly organized to provide significant functions into the project at very low
cost (Pilanawithana and Sandanayake, 2017). It is the concept that promotes substitution of
materials as well as methods that are less expensive in nature without sacrificing the
functionality and also called as value evaluation. This report will highlight the value engineering
designing at RIBA stage 4 in which certain measures will be discussed in order to reduce the
costs in effectual manner.

Value engineering the design at RIBA stage 4
RIBA illustrates the sector standard planning methods that describes each and every step
of the overall procedure in a construction, designing and building projects. It stands for Royal
Institute of British Architects In the UK and across the world who publishes the plan of work
namely as RIBA. This helps architects to construct a process of designing, briefing,
construction, operations and utilization of building projects. The plan of work under this specific
system conclude all the tasks and results that are required at key stages of the project. The lists
describe all the tasks and output that are extremely required at key stages of the assignment. It is
highly utilized construction company document within the UK and based upon a constructive
model for the overall building procedure.
The stages that are involved within the RIBA plan of work at stage 4 consists of
following stages such as technical designing according to which the building services,
architectural as well as the structural practical application designs has been illustrated in detailed
manner. Under such kind of specific stage, technical designs are developed by any specialists
and their sub contractions will be evaluated in highly acknowledged manner. At this specific
stage certain modifications takes place that greatly affects the cost behaviour of the overall
project (Casoni and et.al., 2020). This modification greatly emphasize and provide implications
over the value engineering principles that plays a major role in the concerned project such as
Querry House Conference and community centre in context of making some appropriate and
desirable modifications that are required within the designing and operational methods that helps
