O Gerenciamento do Valor Agregado (Earned Value Management, EVM) ou a Análise do Valor Agregado (Earned Value Analysis, EVA) é uma técnica de medição e controle de projetos baseada na medição física, financeira e de tempo que proporciona indicadores de avanço real, variações de desempenho e previsões para conclusão do projeto. Entretanto, vários trabalhos científicos vêm descrevendo alguns problemas e limitações dessa técnica como a desconsideração dos fluxos de trabalho e a incompatibilidade de previsões em estágios iniciais de construção. Assim, por meio de um estudo de caso único, exploratório e descritivo, o presente trabalho tem por objetivo analisar o uso da técnica do EVM em um projeto de construção sob a ótica da Construção Enxuta. O estudo pode confirmar alguns problemas levantados em outros trabalhos, bem como expandi-los, proporcionando uma visão mais holística sobre a aplicabilidade dessa técnica na construção civil, especialmente em obras cuja construção enxuta é aplicada. Por fim, os autores concluem que a técnica do EVM é uma repetição da técnica de medição físico-financeira plotada no tempo e que suas limitações podem tornar o seu uso incompatível com projetos de construção.

Nowadays, considering uncertainties and complexities in dam engineering problems, implementation of risk analysis is essential more than before. On the other hand, reliability analysis is an efficient approach which can be applied in order to quantify the identified risks. By applying such analyses, a designer can therefore define and develop different scenarios in order to evaluate the effect of identified risks. The risk management process can be further implemented within a value management cycle where the potential alternatives should be evaluated and finally the best-known alternative must be selected. In order to measure the efficiency of risk analysis approach in a dam, a case study is studied and then implemented. The result of the reliability analysis for the piping phase shows a conservative approach with a low risk during the dam design process. Based on the value analysis, two different scenarios are then developed. In the first scenario, the piping phase is considered as a high risk issue; and in the second scenario, the risk is considered as its minimum acceptable threshold. Based on the obtained results, this can be summarized: utilizing risk analysis for improvement of the decision-making process can be efficiently defined and developed as a fundamental strategy in water resource projects.

The civil and construction industry is the basis of industries, it has always been known as the "leading industry" and in such industry the basic material is reinforced concrete. Even in this 21st century materials science and engineering methods have developed perfectly, reinforced concrete still is the main structure material in civil and construction industry. Formwork activity is one of indispensable matters during concrete forming and hardening processes. Once the forming process has defect, it might cause the formwork collapse during the concrete placing procedure. Such damage will result in pecuniary loss or workers life. This illustrating that the formwork is one of the most important materials in theconstruction industry. In general, formwork is mainly usedtimberas its rawmaterial. Therefore, the wooden formworkwill naturallydestruct and discard after repeating four to six times. But the remaining nail and chemicals treatment on the timber surface of the waste formwork always make the subsequent activity not easily. Such process does not echo todays trend of emphasis on the energy conservation and environmental protection. Besides, in order to keep the progress of the industry, all kinds of civil and construction industries are still continuous without considering the global temperature is getting warmer. But the timber,asaformwork rawmaterial,thespeedof deforestation is far behind the progress of forestation. Timber material will bedeforested somedaywith such vicious cycle. Therefore, if there is any appropriate material to replace wooden formwork, it will be a valuable issue for further research. The subject of this research is using value analysis to compare function and cost between plastic formwork plate and wooden formwork plate. For the study analysis, due to thelife cycleoftheplastic formwork plate andwooden formwork plate are notthe same, so this research developstheconceptoflife cost for doing the performance comparison between plastic formwork and wooden formwork with workability, cost, flat surface and environment. The study result shows the plastic formwork is full with potential to develop.

Value Analysis (VA), as it was originally conceived, was defined and applied as a cost cutting tool, in order to make products more competitive. That short scope was early identified as limiting further developments and applications of the concept, by its initial pathfinder, if no extra effort was made to take the concept into other levels of management and, consequently, of business. The many different and alternative applications of the concept and of its original methodology have taken many professional practitioners and scholars to theorize and apply new concepts and methods. We can find a tremendous number of different learning exercises and theoretical evolution from that work, but that has not yet answered many aspirations regarding the initial concept of value and value analysis. This paper aims at bringing a new and more comprehensive understanding to professional practitioners, scholars, trainers and students, about some major concepts and applied methodologies in the disciplines of Value Management (VM), Value Analysis (VA) and Value Engineering (VE).
