Safety has always been one of our top priorities.Home InspectionEarly detection of building usage conditions is possible.
One, the common situations requiring architectural structure examination and appraisal include:
Structural alterations are proposed for changes in usage purpose, usage conditions, and requirements.
When considering adding stories, inserting floors, or any other form of structural modification to the building.
At the proposed relocation of the building.
When the building structure itself shows significant functional degradation or a noticeable tilt.
In the event of potential damage to the building structure due to external influences.
Two, dilapidated buildings are assessed by units, with the building area in square meters as the measurement unit.
The entire dilapidated building is counted by the total floor area in square meters.
Dilapidated buildings are counted by the square meters of their collapsed areas.
The assessment of dilapidated buildings should be based on the dangerous evaluation of the foundation and structural components, combined with historical conditions and trends, conducting a comprehensive analysis and making an integrated judgment.
In assessing the danger of foundation or structural components, consider whether the danger is isolated or interconnected.
If the danger of the component is isolated, it does not constitute a danger to the structure.
If the risk of the component is related, contact the structural risk assessment department.
Five. The sequence for on-site inspections during property appraisals should prioritize the exterior of the house, followed by the interior. For houses with severe damage or in a state of peril, if the extent of the damage is clearly visible, an inspection of the interior is not necessary.
Exterior Home Inspection of the Following Areas: ******
The structural system, height, width, and number of stories of the house; the deformation of the foundation due to tilting and ground subsidence; the extent of damage and destruction to the exterior of the house; the layout and current state of damage or destruction of the house's accessory structures; and the condition of local collapses and the damage to adjacent exposed structures and components.
Prior to reinforcing the structure, it is crucial to address the rationality of the reinforcement. Whether it is a local or comprehensive reinforcement, sufficient awareness must be given to the rationality issues. The construction materials used must comply with national standards; otherwise, the expected reinforcement effects cannot be achieved, and the structural safety of the building may be compromised.
