Abstract - Real estate sector has become one of India's most
averaging Rs. 2 per sq. Ft monthly, depending on the flat size. Additionally, they bear the costs of internal maintenance like plumbing, electrical repairs, and essential civil works, such as addressing leaks and stains. Owners also invest in interior works to enhance their homes. Beyond these expenses, periodic building condition assessments and rectifications are necessary.
dynamic and rapidly growing industries. Over recent years, it has witnessed significant trends and advancements, largely fuelled by the city's thriving IT sector and substantial infrastructure development mainly concentrating on apartment building. The importance of civil engineering in apartment building maintenance plays a vital role, which helps in understanding the structural stability and durability of the building for its entire life-cycle. The structural stability has been assessed via traditional visual inspection method as the initial stage, which is followed by various tests to get to know about the structure in better ways. In recent days various advanced technologies and techniques like photogrammetry and image processing offer several advantages that can make assessments more efficient, accurate, and insightful which helps in improved data collection, enhanced objectivity, predictive maintenance, informed better decision-making, etc… this paper deals with the survey conducted among group of 150 respondents comprising apartment residents building assessment technicians, civil engineers, construction contractors and layman. Survey results clearly states the need for advancement in condition assessment.
Advanced technologies, like photogrammetry, enhance assessment efficiency and accuracy. This technique improves data collection, enhances objectivity, supports predictive maintenance, and informs better decision-making. Data from photogrammetry, even from hard-to-reach areas, can create detailed digital models (Building Information Modelling BIM), facilitating better visualization and analysis of potential issues. In this paper survey was conducted among apartment owners and building repair & maintenance experts to know the actual practise and need for advancement in industry.
2. METHODOLOGY In this paper survey was conducted among apartment owners and building repair & maintenance experts to know the actual practise and need for advancement in industry.
Key Words: Residential Apartment, Building condition assessment, Causes of Crack, Photogrammetry, Survey, Decision Making Tool.
This study analyzes how owner associations in two apartment buildings persuade co-owners to invest in crack rectification as case studies and few other case studies on the photogrammetry can help in better decision making. This paper explores the process of achieving consensus on maintenance expenditures and includes surveys of apartment owners and technical personnel. The surveys assess respondents openness to new crack identification technologies and gather insights into the technical needs and preferences of those involved in the process. This multifaceted approach aims to understand and improve better strategies for building maintenance.
1.INTRODUCTION Maintaining apartment buildings involves balancing expenditure and efficiency to ensure resident safety, property value, and satisfaction. These buildings are both homes and investments, making their upkeep essential. Traditional methods of assessing building conditions are often time-consuming, hindering timely decision-making. Regular inspections are crucial not only for compliance but also for maintaining property value, strengthening resilience in emergencies, and providing managers with the information needed for effective decision-making. This proactive approach ensures the long-term health and value of the property. Owners living in residential apartments must cover various maintenance costs, including common area electricity, water, elevators, garbage collection, and facility management,
