Overview of House Condition Grades

Formation of the concept of house damage grades.

Purpose and significance of evaluating the condition of buildings.

Scope of Application for the Rating Standards of Residential Condition and Damage.

Section 4: Classification of Building Structures

1. Frame Structure: Beam and column components of the frame structure are easy to standardize and pattern, facilitating the use of integrated assembly structures to shorten construction periods. When using cast-in-place concrete frame structures, the integrity and rigidity of the structure are good, and proper design can achieve excellent seismic performance. Moreover, beams or columns can be cast into various required cross-sectional shapes.

2. Structural Steel: The main load-bearing structure is constructed using steel materials, including suspension structures. Such as steel factories, large sports stadiums, etc.

3. Steel and Reinforced Concrete Structures: The main load-bearing structures are constructed using steel and reinforced concrete. For instance, in a building, some beams and columns are made with steel frameworks, while others are constructed with reinforced concrete frameworks.

4. Reinforced Concrete Structure: The main load-bearing structure is constructed using reinforced concrete, including thin-shell structures, large formwork cast-in-place structures, and reinforced concrete constructions using sliding formwork and other advanced construction methods.

5. Mixed Structure: The main load-bearing structure is constructed with reinforced concrete and brick wood.

6. Brick and Wood Structure: The main load-bearing structure is constructed using bricks and wood, such as a house built with wooden rafters, brick walls, and wooden pillars.

7. Other Structures: Any building structures that do not fall under the aforementioned categories are classified as such.

(7) Calculation of measurement units and the rates of house integrity and dilapidated buildings.

Method for Assessing the Condition of Buildings

1. Evaluate the condition and damage level of properties based on varying circumstances.

2. Notes for evaluating the house condition and damage levels.

3. Program for assessing the condition grade of buildings:

The house condition grades are divided into five categories: sound houses, basically sound houses, generally damaged houses, severely damaged houses, and dangerous houses.
