Abstract

The objective of this paper is to briefly describe the various building condition assessment metrics, including their strengths and weaknesses and how they support building infrastructure asset management. The approaches fall into two categories: monetary-derived and engineering-derived. Monetary approaches include backlog and the Facility Condition Index (FCI), both of which are economic or financial health metrics. The engineering-derived approach is the Building Condition Index (BCI) series, which a performance health metric. This paper addresses why both the FCI and BCI condition assessment metrics constitute a building asset management “best practice” when used together and computed from a distress-based inspection process.
