Project Acceleration Analysis Using the Crashing Method With The Addition of Four Hours of Work and The Shift Work System Case Study : RSUB Malang Building Construction Project

Abstract

In the process of building a construction project, work delays often occur on the project. So we need an alternative that can be used to support the acceleration of project completion. In this study, we will analyze the acceleration of duration in the construction project of RSUB Malang Building, with the alternative of adding four hours of work and the work shift system (morning shift and night shift). The total project cost budget in post-crashing conditions with the alternative of additional working hours was Rp.12,312,448,567.00 or more expensive 0.82% of the total project cost budget under normal conditions and the duration of project implementation was 191 working days or faster 9, 05% of the normal duration, while the total project budget in conditions after crashing with an alternative work shift system was Rp. 12,155,175,517.00 or 0.47% cheaper than the total project cost budget under normal conditions and the duration of project implementation was 179 days or 14.76% faster than the normal duration. It can be concluded that implementing a work shift system is a more effective and economical alternative to crashing, because the duration is faster and the total project cost budget is cheaper.
