Abstract

Heritage buildings belong to the most vulnerable class of structures because of the material degradation and the lack of structural design present. With the increasing frequency and magnitude of disasters, the need to preserve heritage buildings is further underlined. The risk assessment method considered various risks and the inclusion of the heritage building asset value. The pilot study in Iloilo was able to create a shortlist of "prioritized" heritage buildings for preservation.
