Building Inspections
Also Known As:
The standard VDI 6199 provides guidelines for conducting regular inspections and site inspections for various types of structures, excluding traffic structures. The standard is applicable to owners and individuals authorized to manage buildings, as well as professionals involved in the process, including planning and consulting engineers, architects, facility managers, property managers, and construction departments of both private and public owners or clients.
The objective of this standard is to ensure that buildings are regularly inspected to assess their condition, identify potential risks or deficiencies, and determine necessary maintenance and repair measures. By following the guidelines outlined in VDI 6199, stakeholders can effectively monitor the condition of their buildings and implement preventive or corrective actions in a timely manner.
The standard does not provide specific details on inspection methods or procedures; rather, it serves as a framework that organizations can use to establish their own inspection protocols. It is a comprehensive resource that covers different aspects of building inspections, providing guidance on topics such as inspection intervals, inspection criteria, documentation, and the qualifications required for inspection personnel.
