MRS 22602 Maintainance And Repairs Of Structures Notes

It is absolutely necessary to maintain the building structure in order to preserve the assets and protect the building occupants. Normally, the external parts of a building get weathered quickly by being exposed to the natural environment. Overlooked dilapidation and inadequate maintenance in the building lead to loose mortar, tiles, and bricks of external walls, spalling concrete, thereby threatening public safety. Proper building maintenance ensures that the building and the environment remain healthy, clean, and a safe place to work or reside. The strengthening of elements for sustaining loads in the future enhances the life, and use and raises the value of structures. Regular inspection and maintenance are, therefore, necessary for the timely identification of deteriorated building elements. However, this requires a scientific approach through the investigation of failure patterns. Civil engineering technologists are required to prevent the deterioration of different types of buildings and also to repair the damages in the building. This course is therefore designed to develop the competency to do all these activities.
