Building assessment is a measure that has to be taken by building management to the existing building or operational building because it is very critical to the safety and comfort of the building’s users. One of the commonly used building assessment methods is visual assessment. Visual assessment is a non-destructive concrete assessment that is done to identify and define different concrete conditions, which can be seen during its’ lifetime. Concrete damage assessment is done to estimate the risk rating of concrete damage against the existing building structures. The risk assessment process is done in three steps: risk identification, risk analysis, and risk evaluation. There are three risk ratings: low, medium, and high. Risk rating examination of the existing building is determined based on the concrete damage type and condition rating value on the building structure element, concrete damage frequency on the building, and critical weight of the building structure element. Risk rating examination results of concrete damage are used to determine priorities building structure element repair.
