Abstract

Building Condition Assessment (BCA) to determine the building deficiency information and can plan the suitable future maintenance or repair requirements for the college building at University Technology Malaysia (UTM). This activity is also important in monitoring building maintenance to maintain the appearance and performance of the building. It needs to be preserved to ensure the value and life cycle of a building. This study relates to the problem of building structure in college buildings at University Technology Malaysia and the overall rating obtained for a building. In this case study, it only focuses on college buildings at UTM namely Datin Seri Endon College (KDSE). The main objective of this study is to determine the building that has problems in the building structure in the point view of the block occupants. This is done by distributing questionnaires to students about their room and toilet. Furthermore, for the second objective is to determine the defect rating on the structure and surrounding of the building to provide maintenance methods. Therefore, to get the data, it is necessary to conduct visual inspection activities on the site by taking pictures, taking notes, drawing and retrieving information from people living in the building. Subsequently, the data provided will summarize the actual situation and can handle future building maintenance. Based on this study, the W3 block was selected to run BCA after being surveyed from the survey. Even the rating on the building after the BCA shows that the building is still in good condition and requires minimal maintenance only on a single place. In the shell, this activity is very important for determining rating on buildings in colleges or other buildings.
