Abstract Retrofitting in cultural heritage buildings to be revitalised has quite complex challenges, in addition to problems Efforts to maintain the performance of technical strength and repair limits on building elements are not flexible such as new buildings. This research aims to evaluate the method of implementing the revitalization of cultural heritage buildings through structural assessment. The case study method used on the Bank Archives Building object elaborated analysis to determine the safest Retrofit strategy. The analytical method used in this study is quantitative method using primary data obtained from direct observation and secondary data obtained from previous research case studies. The results showed that in planning a retrofit at the Bank Archives Building there were several technical and non-technical obstacles. Thus, the assessment method chosen includes several methods, including visual detail inspection, four non-destructive tests, one destructive test, and one soil test. These data are used to perform structural and geotechnical analysis. The results of structural analysis show that the quality of concrete in the structure of the Bank Archive Building does not meet the technical requirements of the building while the results of geotechnical analysis show that the decline in the structure of the Bank Archive Building has relatively little potential. The retrofit strategy that can be applied is a bending moment frame from a steel profile. This aims to increase the load capacity evenly distributed on the structure of the Bank Archives Building.
