- Abstract
- The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) established a Standards Committee on the Structural Condition Assessment of Existing Buildings in 1982. This effort has culminated in publication of ASCE 11-90 "Standard Guideline for Structural Condition Assessment of Existing Buildings." This standard is discussed along with new activities undertaken by the committee concerning condition assessment of the building envelope and seismic rehabilitation of buildings.
