We often hear of a building that looks sturdy and big but it turns out to be fragile and easily crumbles. Many factors can affect the condition of the building. In September, an office building in Jakarta was collapsed and destroyed the road. That is the importance of regular maintenance of the building.
The causes of damage to buildings usually occur due to these factors:
1. Quality of building materials
Preventing damage can be done by choosing quality building materials that are suitable for building needs. You do not need to cut budgets and reduce material quality in order to get benefits from a project.
2. Human error
Human error is the most common thing due to negligence, lack of education, or miscalculation. Not a big thing, but the effects will be very detrimental in the future.
3. Loads that are too heavy
Planning before starting a construction must-see long-term goals because each building has characteristics. Often the change in the function of the building causes damage because the load it accommodates does not match the building capacity.
4. Weak foundation structure
The foundation is the main thing in a construction project. Before you start to execute, you must properly calculate the build of the foundation.
5. There are no building tests
Testing the building is a must before starting to use it. Usually, buildings will be tested when experiencing natural disasters and see their resistance.
It is not only during the construction process that needs attention but when the building is in operation it must be well maintained. Performing maintenance on a building regularly will make the building more durable and strong. Sometimes crucial things happen because the building owners are not paid much attention to building maintenance.
Building maintenance must be carried out optimally and regularly in order to prevent damage to the building, maintain stability, and maintain the value of building assets. Several things in the building that need attention:
1. Repair the roof of the building
