Building Condition Codes

Code Description  
1 Satisfactory Suitable for continued use with normal maintenance. Any single item of major maintenance or capital renewal is not greater than $40,000 (Catastrophic failures accepted).
2 Remodeling - A Requires restoration and/or replacement of some building system components in order to meet acceptable standards without major room use changes, alterations, or modernizations. The approximate cost of “Remodeling A” is not greater than 25 percent of the estimated replacement cost of the building.
3 Remodeling - B Requires major updating and/or modernization of the building. The approximate cost of “Remodeling B” is greater than 25 percent, but not greater than 50 percent of the estimated replacement cost of the building.
4 Remodeling - C Requires major remodeling and total replacement of the major building system components. The approximate cost of “Remodeling C” is greater than 50 percent of the replacement cost of the building.
5 Demolition Should be demolished or abandoned because the building is unsafe or structurally unsound, irrespective of the need for the space or the availability of funds for replacement. This category takes precedence over categories 1, 2, 3, and 4. If a building is scheduled for demolition, its condition is recorded as “demolition,” regardless of its condition.
6 Termination Planned termination or relinquishment of occupancy of the building for reasons other than unsafeness or structural unsoundness, such as abandonment of temporary units or vacation of leased space. This category takes precedence over categories 1, 2, 3, and 4. If a building is scheduled for termination, its condition is recorded as “termination,” regardless of its condition
