Using the UTA Method in Optimized Building Selection from the Cost of Application of Housing Projects

In today's economic conditions, the costs of housing projects affect investment decisions at a primary level. Location of land, zoning regulations, topographic and geological conditions, etc. as well as one of the most important parameters affecting the cost of housing, are the design dimensions of the structure. Different alternatives should be created in order to select the optimum design in terms of cost in the design of the house. For this selection, many criteria such as floor height, total building area, exterior area, room and number of wet spaces are considered. The combination of qualitative and quantitative values at the time of the selection process is the primary factor for the final decision to be healthy. In this study, for the selection of the cost-effective reinforced concrete duplex villa design; UTA method was used for multi - criteria decision making methods. Selection of this method; It is based on regression, linear programming techniques, and the ability to provide continuity between choice. VisualUTA program was used in the implementation of this approach and the calculations were made by making the necessary calculations. With the use of this approach, a numerical solution has been provided for the selection of the optimum size housing in terms of cost and this has provided an important convenience in making the decision.
