Abstract
is the recommendation given for the hoist drum. This also would need reconsideration, unless the designer made a mistake in designing the plate thickness, drum length and weld size. Usually an experienced design engineer will not be making such mistakes. The applications as elaborated in the book should have been a little more comprehensive. It is well known that value engineering has applications in five broad areas: in design, purchase and manufacturing of products; in administrative groups; in private and public sectors where the task is to achieve accomplishments through people; in all areas of social service work such as hospitals, insurance services, colleges; and in development and research related to architectural design and construction. Chapter 10 on applications mainly covers the technical design, modification and manufacturing methods without touching the broader, and particularly the social, applications of value engineering. The subject, if attempted, would have been
