The reason for distress during service is the lack of maintenance of the building which results in deterioration/aging of materials and structural components leading to corrosion and cracking.
Buildings or structures are damaged at different grades of damage when they experience extreme loading conditions like in severe earthquakes or cyclonic storms for which they are not designed.
Factors causing Building Distress :

They may also fail if the building including the foundation is not properly designed and constructed following the standard Codes of practice. An impression exists that taller structures are seismically unsafe in comparison with low-rise buildings.
It is to be noted that most lives were lost in Kachchh (Gujarat) earthquake of 2001 in one and two storeyed masonry buildings. Hence, all buildings have to be built safe.

Inadequacy of design and poor quality of construction and maintenance are therefore the main reasons for the distress seen in buildings during service or under natural hazards.
This is because building codes and byelaws are not conscientiously followed in design and quality of construction, nor in maintenance.

The current [Indian standard (I.S.)] building codes and guidelines in India have been tested and found effective in achieving safety of the residents during the last six earthquakes (Uttarkashi 1991 to J & K 2005).
Hence not following these codes in design and construction is sure recipe for distress in future.

Main steps of condition assessment will be
a) To record the damage if any, and find out the causes for distress
b) To assess the extent of distress and to estimate the residual strengths of structural components and the system including the foundation.
c) To plan the rehabilitation and retrofitting/strengthening of the building.

Typical visible distress detrimental to the safety of buildings
Cracks in RC beams, Columns , slabs, masonry walls (particularly if the walls are load bearing walls) , spalling of concrete, sagging of beams or slabs , and tilting of columns or RC frames (out of plumb) and major failure of structural members are the typical types of crucial damages that will require structural repairs to bring back the lost strength. Such actions will need to be done along with retrofitting if that is also decided for the building in question.

What does a structural failure mean?Building failure occurs when the building
loses its ability to perform its intended (design) function. Hence, building failures can be categorized into the two broad groups of physical (structural) failures (which result in the loss of certain characteristics, e.g., strength) and performance failures (which means a reduction in function below an established acceptable limit) (Douglas and Ransom, 2007).

Failure of a structure can occur from many types of problems, mostly unique to the type of structure or to the various industries.Due to size, shape, or the choice of material, the structure is not strong and tough enough to support the load. Failure can occur when the overstressed construction reaches a critical stress level.
General causes of failure

Instability, whether due to geometry, design or material choice, causing the structure to fail from fatigue or corrosion. These types of failure often occur at stress points, such as squared corners or from bolt holes being too close to the material's edge, causing cracks to slowly form and then progress through cyclic loading. conditions.
Manufacturing errors, may be due to improper selection of materials, incorrect sizing, improper heat treating, failing to adhere to the design, or shoddy workmanship.

Most of the structural failures are associated with materials and are the consequence of human blunder involving a lack of know-how about materials or the combination of contrary materials.
There are structural failures that can be endorsed to irregularity in materials. Although too much reliance is given on modern structural materials yet the manufacturing or production faults may exist even in the most dependable structural materials, such as standard structural steel or centrally blended concrete

One of the major natural factors that result into building collapse is rainfall; others may include temperature, pressure, etc.
The fact remain that this is a natural factor that cannot be stopped, buildings therefore need to be constructed adequately bearing in mind such uncontrollable factors.

Excessive water cement ratioThe IS: 456:2000 has laid down upper limits for water cement ratio, normally it need about 15 to 18 lts. Of water per 50kg bag of cement.With this quantity of water concrete will be stiff and uncompact able so we mix additional water for workability. This extra water after evaporation leaves out minute capillary pores which lead to corrosion 0f reinforcement.

CAUSES OF EARLY DETERIORATION OF CONCRETE STRUCTURES
Inadequate concrete cover Bars are not bent accurately or may not be effectively fixed to ensure that specified gap is left between bars and form work while often not only bars touch formwork but also the binding wires loose ends and the steel bars are seen at the surface of concrete.In that case, they are prone to moisture.

CAUSES OF EARLY DETERIORATION OF CONCRETE STRUCTURES
Honey comb or Un vibrated concretePorous concrete is a major source of weakness in concrete.Un-compacted concrete results in honey combing which gives low compressive strength and permits moisture to enter, resulting in corrosion of steel bars.

CAUSES OF EARLY DETERIORATION OF CONCRETE STRUCTURES
Cold joints or bad construction joints A cold joint is a joint where fresh concrete is placed against a previous un-compacted concrete which has already hardened due to lapses of time that is more than concrete setting time.
Inadequate reinforcementMany a contractor does not put enough reinforcement in concrete structural member s and hence it fails under tension.

CAUSES OF EARLY DETERIORATION OF CONCRETE STRUCTURES
Wrong placing of reinforcementMany times contractors do not know the correct location of reinforcement in structural member so it is not placed at proper position.Inadequate cement quantityIS: 456:2000 has laid down the minimum quantity in concrete.Minimum quantity of cement is needed not only to coat the fine and coarse aggregate particles but also to fill the voids between the aggregate particles and to provide a thicker fill of cement grout for easy workability.

CAUSES OF EARLY DETERIORATION OF CONCRETE STRUCTURES
Congested reinforcement bars Too many steel bars in narrow and slender RCC columns, walls or beams results in NO room for having cover in concrete nor for inserting a needle vibrator to ensure full compaction leading to honey combed concrete.
Initially rust steel bars Alkali – aggregate reactivityUnder most conditions the reaction causes excessive expansion and cracking of concrete after few months or year.

CAUSES OF EARLY DETERIORATION OF CONCRETE STRUCTURES
Effect of weather and water leakageWeather causes structure to delay. Prolong exposure to polluted environment and acid rain can give weathered concrete and corrode metal ties and fastenings.
Porous cover blocks Having incorrect mix proportions and water cement ratio. These are usually fixed to the steel bars at about one meter centers and if they are porous they become the starting source of decay as they permit the ingress of moisture.

REPAIR
Repair refers to modification of structure, damaged in its appearance or serviceability, to restore, partly or wholly, the pre-existing characteristics of serviceability, load-bearing capacity and if necessary, to improve its durability.Repair techniques are used to restore the structural integrity and shape of a concrete element and generally include removal of damaged concrete and replacement of new concrete.

GENERAL REPAIR PROCEDURE
Surface preparation and protection of reinforcement Chipping of defective or deteriorated concrete
should be done till all defective concrete is removed.
During repairs structural load carrying members must be supported.
Remove all rust from steel bars if it is reinforced member. In concrete rust is like cancer.

GENERAL REPAIR PROCEDURE
Surface preparation and protection of reinforcement The old concrete of masonry surface should be
made rough to give proper mechanical bond. Wash and clean the entire surface before
taking up repairs Bonding material / epoxy should be applied
between old and new concrete. Spraying of water at regular intervals on
inclined or vertical members or we may also apply curing compound.

ASSESMENT OF QUALITY OF STRUCTURE SOON AFTER ITS CONSTRUCTION
As the repair of structural element of building is over, it is desirable hat soundness of structure is assed with the help of non-destructive testing technique. Some NDTs which are available are:Pulse velocity measurement method (PVM)Cover meterRebound hammer or similar methodsCore cutting and testing of critical spotsThrough these methods the strength of concrete, depth of cover, cracks, voids, if any can be found.
