As a structure grows old, aging, use (or misuse) and exposure to the environment can affect the health of the building significantly. Therefore, it is advisable to monitor it periodically by taking a professional opinion. The structural audit is a preliminary technical survey of a structure to assess its general health as a civil engineering structure. It is usually initiated as the first step for repair. This is similar to the periodic health checkup recommended for older people.

Some of the finer aspects of the structural audit are listed below for your information:
Scope & Exclusions:

• Quite often the word “structural” refers to the building frame, which supports loads and this is often in RCC. However, structural audit not only covers such frame but also masonry, plaster, painting, plumbing, waterproofing etc which can affect the strength or durability of the building, if not maintained properly.

Following exclusions from the scope are also noteworthy:

• Non-destructive testing is excluded
• Visible effects of internal alterations shall be documented, but not the consumption of FSI
• Type of repair required shall be specified, but not its cost estimate
• Remarks on the general health of the building shall be given, but assessment of foundation and structural stability are excluded

Observations/ Data:
Auditor’s report is based on:

• The visual survey of building
• Feedback from the members
• Repair history of a building
• Drawings, if available

The structural auditor should maintain a comprehensive checklist of observations. He should also correlate the observations before giving his remarks & recommendations.R
