[FMMI EASTERN BRANCH] IDENTIFICATION OF BUILDING DEFECT & MAINTENANCE

Scheme: HRDCorp Claimable Courses

Programme Details

Identification of building defects and maintenance is crucial for ensuring the longevity and structural integrity of built environments. Building defects encompass a spectrum of issues, ranging from structural vulnerabilities to functional impairments, impacting the overall performance of a structure. Effective maintenance practices involve systematic inspection, prompt defect detection, and strategic repairs. Services in building maintenance include routine inspections, corrective repairs, and preventive measures to address issues proactively. The importance of these processes extends to facility management, where they contribute significantly to operational efficiency and occupant satisfaction. Adhering to international standards, such as ISO 55000, ensures best practices in maintenance management, fostering sustainable and resilient structures. Understanding common types of defects and their root causes is fundamental to implementing targeted and efficient maintenance strategies, ultimately preserving the built environment. Defect Identification: Implement a systematic approach to identify and catalog building defects, covering structural, mechanical, electrical, and other components. Maintenance Efficiency: Enhance maintenance practices to ensure timely and efficient identification, assessment, and resolution of building defects. Preventive Measures: Develop and implement preventive maintenance strategies to mitigate the occurrence of common defects and prolong the lifespan of building component.
