Analysis of Time Efficiency of Using Sketchup Software for Mandiri Branch Projects at PT. Bangun Gagas Karyatama
Abstract
The architectural design process demands high time efficiency, especially in fast-paced projects suchas Bank Mandiri branch offices. This study aims to analyze the time efficiency of using SketchUpcompared to other design software at PT. Bangun Gagas Karyatama. The study used a qualitativedescriptive method through observation and interviews with eight professional informants directlyinvolved in the project. The results showed that SketchUp was considered the most efficient in theconceptual and early modeling stages due to its intuitive interface, simple work system, and relativelylight hardware requirements, thus accelerating the design exploration and revision process. In thecontext of projects with tight deadlines, SketchUp provides a faster and more adaptive workflow insupporting design completion.Keywords: Sketchup, Time Efficiency, Architecture Software, Mandiri Branch Project
