EN 15331:2011 (E) 4 Introduction A building presents a challenging set of maintenance related requirements which, although not unique, are not often found together:  the need to maintain property value of the building over time;  the possibility that the property may undergo a significant change in its intended use during its service life;  the number of persons responsible for maintenance and the different type of responsibility (owner, administrator, tenant, users,.);  its long service life (decades). Under these conditions, it is difficult to predict with any degree of precision the service life of each component. Budgeting for maintenance, and specifically the scheduling of maintenance interventions, requires the availability and the analysis of feedback data obtained from maintenance activities. The purpose of building maintenance is to ensure utilisation of the asset by maintaining its value (see 3.3) and initial performance within acceptable limits for its whole service life, as well as promoting technical and regulatory modifications to initial or new technical requirements as selected by the operator or demanded by law. To achieve this goal, the definition of general criteria to collect data that is essential for maintenance activities and the use of suitable information systems may be used to develop database and management tools to improve the profitability of buildings. SIST EN 15331:2011

Since the complete collection of information requires significant time and costs, the procedure shall be planned in advance and the extent of the collection evaluated on a case-by-case basis. NOTE The information required should describe the assets as a whole and its adequacy with respect to usability and value. The Asset Register (see 3.17) could also be used to collect the required information. 4.1.2 Preliminary data collection During preliminary data collection the property to be maintained is to be identified and quantified; the data shall include all documents available and the following information, as a minimum:  location;  gross volume and surface area, divided according to intended use (refer to standards if applicable);  general characteristics of component parts (e.g. position inside the building, drawings, technical data sheet, instructions for maintenance issued by manufacturer,.);  level of compliance with legal and regulatory requirements (objectives to be attained);  status of maintenance upgrading in accordance with pre-determined operational specifications;  external constraints (monumental and environmental, servitudes (e.g. right of way), agreements with public bodies and bordering landowners etc.);  legal and/or technical documents relating to the installation, operation and maintenance of systems and equipment;  status of distribution systems and data concerning consumption (energy, water, etc.);  type and characteristics of services required to ensure operation of the building (premises for doorkeeper and cleaners, heating, etc.). NOTE The construction company should normally provide this information at the time of delivering the building to the owner (handover). In this case, only the update of this information should be performed by the owner or by organization managing the maintenance services.
SIST EN 15331:2011



EN 15331:2011 (E) 9 4.1.3 Specific collection of information Detailed information shall be collected, after the preliminary data collection; the collected data shall be accurately identified and its presentation format codified (see Clause 7). The information categories required may include the following (example list): a) inventory of buildings and equipment: identification, location and description supported by: 1) an appropriate coding system for the building complex, individual buildings, technological systems for each building subdivided into technological units, technical elements, component parts and the material of which they are made; 2) a coding system according to its functional dependences; b) drawings: sizes, position and layout of the various components; NOTE 1 To be reliable, the above information shall refer to the ‘as built’ status of the building and shall be kept updated during maintenance. NOTE 2
For example, these may consist of plans and cross-sections, structural drawings and systems layouts. This process is facilitated if the drawings are computerised. c) data about maintenance activities already performed (history of the components); d) assessment of efficiency, functionality and compliance with applicable rules and standards (see 4.2); e) residual service life, for each component, predicted in accordance with age, quality and conditions of use, and in relation with the service life initially foreseen; f) technical specifications: especially concerning equipment and building services in order to identify characteristics and ‘established operating conditions’; g) repair or replacement costs: for each component, as a basis for a financial assessment of the maintenance plan; NOTE 3 The repair cost (i.e. the cost to restore the functionality of a building component) can be estimated with reference to official or regional price list. h) cost for unavailability and/or down-state: estimate, at least for critical components, costs arising from the down-state of the components or from their inability to provide the services for which they are intended (e.g. costs for liabilities, damages, damage to the corporate image,.); i) information about critical construction solutions (for example arch vaulting); j) instruction for inspections, operation manuals and maintenance manuals: experience and recommendations of the builder/manufacturer to be used to develop an appropriate maintenance plan. 4.2 Diagnostic methods and instruments for maintenance
Whenever is possible, maintenance operators should make an appropriate use of diagnostics in managing the buildings subject to the maintenance establishing which type of diagnostic to be used and its physical coverage and duration. The decisions concerning any maintenance intervention should be based on the results and the information coming from the diagnosis activities. The effectiveness of the tests and the interpretation of the diagnostic results should be associated with the use of standard methods and instruments to obtain reliable, comparable and traceable results (see Table 1). SIST EN 15331:2011



EN 15331:2011 (E) 10 Table 1 — Types, objectives and methods of building assessment (example of levels that could be used during the data collection process) Type of assessment Objectives Methods and procedures for examination Types of evaluation
General diagnostic or pre-diagnostic Objective description of any abnormality, malfunctions or degradation General information on condition of building Inspection (e.g. visual inspection) Check lists Information from previous inspections Simple portable instruments Qualitative In-depth diagnostic Thorough examination of the actual status and its interpretation Collection of sufficient information for detailed design of work to be undertaken Non destructive tests Destructive instrumental tests (sampling from building and laboratory tests) Analytical methods (diagnostic documents, malfunction chart, fault trees, etc.) Expert systems Qualitative and quantitative
The data collected and analysed shall be included in the documents (or in an equivalent electronic system) accompanying the inspection documentation (either instructions and logbook); these should provide for the following data: a) technical or identification data: this section contains information on: the position within the building, the functions required, the types of service provided, the performance specifications, the physical and functional relationship with other components, the installation and operation characteristics; b) diagnostic data: this section contains information on the methods and instruments to be used to analyse the malfunctioning or unexpected deterioration as well as their evaluation criteria; c) actual state data: this section contains the interpretation of the actual state of the building or of its parts (sub-systems, components,.), all technical and financial information on the interventions carried out and indications of remedies or corrective action to be adopted. There shall be one of these data record for each technical element or component, in accordance with the appropriate breakdown structure, accompanied by drawings and information to ensure prompt identification. NOTE The information contained in the diagnostic and measurement data are an integral part of the feedback (see Clause 10). A specific plan for the assessment is to be prepared. This plan shall consider the objectives to be attained, operating conditions, times for implementation and cost of the intervention. For large real estate, sampling techniques shall be used for the general assessment. Buildings are then to be grouped by homogeneous classes, according to age, intended use, location, main characteristics and type of construction. However, care must be taken to ensure that the sample selected is truly representative of the whole real estate. SIST EN 15331:2011



EN 15331:2011 (E) 11 With respect to the results of the general assessment and the effects of possible hazardous situations
or down states, the critical components shall be identified and submitted to an in-depth analysis using structured methods such as Reliability Centred Maintenance. Assessment planning shall be periodically reviewed according to needs. 5 Building and maintenance strategy 5.1 General Building management should be conceived and developed according to EN ISO 9001 with due consideration to the objectives in terms of user’s requirements and their achievement through the building operations. Maintenance services provided by third parties should be supplied within the framework of a quality management system. See Figure 1 for the relationship between building strategies and maintenance. NOTE Analytical techniques (for example, Reliability Centred Maintenance) could be used to support the definition of maintenance strategies. 5.2 Building strategy A building strategy shall determine the applicable required service and performance specifications for each building (see 5.3). This will also include a strategy to ensure protection of the property value of the building, whenever applicable. The building strategy should be reviewed at specified regular intervals and whenever there is a significant change in the service or performance requirements; this will ensure that the strategy remains current and meaningful. 5.3 Maintenance policy In accordance with the objectives of the building strategy and with the applicable legal requirements, the maintenance policy shall establish the service level to be provided by the inspection and maintenance services. It shall also define – if possible with the support of diagnostic tools – the objectives, the maintenance strategies and the intervention priorities to be considered when establishing the maintenance plan (see Clause 6). An effective maintenance policy shall optimise cost, according to actual financial resources; the policy shall identify maintenance costs and verify their compatibility with expected results and established priorities, in accordance with the building strategy and within the limits of the financial plan. The policy shall consider, whenever possible, obsolescence factors that may influence the services and performance that have to be provided by the building to its users or to other interested parties. The objective and targets shall be presented qualitatively and – as far as possible – quantitatively, defining quality standards (i.e. the “building quality” to be assured by means of maintenance) and service levels (characteristics and frequency of interventions and methods of providing/executing maintenance). SIST EN 15331:2011



EN 15331:2011 (E) 12 5.4 Maintenance strategies/maintenance types 5.4.1 Corrective maintenance
A corrective maintenance strategy shall only be adopted when it is not feasible - for economical or technical reasons - to adopt preventive measures and when the degraded state (i.e. the state in which the ability to provide the required function is reduced, but within defined limits of acceptability; see EN 13306) is acceptable, involving components that are not part of critical or safety systems. Corrective maintenance normally refers to unexpected malfunctions. The general maintenance strategy of a building is composed of the different sub-strategies for the components of the building. Preventive maintenance may be necessary for critical sub-system (e.g. elevators, fire fighting syste
