48 Assessment and Repair
IN'rRODUCTION
QUALITATIVE ASSESSMENT
This clearly shows that the main damage was sustained·in the upper
left-hand quarter of the first floor with the most notably
affected members in the area bounded by columns 5, 8, 19 and 22.
The degree of damage is again clearly shown to reduce away from
this area towards the lower right-hand corner (col. 59). This
corner was the position that the fire started but the major
combustible material was located to the rear of the building
adjoining a single-storey steel framed warehouse which was totally
destroyed. The fire can be seen to have spread to the second
floor but was brought under control before a major fire or
extensive damage had developed. A comprehensive report giving a
good indication of both damage and likely repair can be prepared
in only a few days using the simple visual assessment procedure.
At this stage, any surprising aspect in the performance of a
structure would also be noted.
QUANTITATIVE ASSESSMENT
beyond this depth to reach a zone which has not exceeded 1000C by
reference to Figure 7. The average damage factor may then be
determined for the compression block taking a factor of 1 .0 for
all concrete subjected to temperatures less than 1oooc, and a
factor of 0.85 for concrete within the 3000C to 100°C zone.
