Abstract/Summary
This study developed a program for the inspection and assessment of conditions of existing reinforced concrete (RC) buildings. The different kinds of damage that RC buildings may have were researched and were classified to different levels of damage class. Also, surveys were conducted to determine experience wise, the classification of damage an engineer may give on a particular damage. Interviews were also made to know the specific views about these matters.
The study was able to produce a Damage Classification Table for the main reference of damage classes. Formulas for the Damage Hazard were also established. An Inspection Form, or checklist, was also established.
The Program may be used for evaluation of buildings that have undergone seismic activity or just for regular maintenance.
The supplement computer software was also produced in accordance with the program to provide a faster and easier way to assess the conditions of RC buildings in the country.
