E – FAQ’s and Reference Guide General Questions

Q: How does the “Overall Building Condition Definitions” above correspond to the individual systems?

A: They directly relate, however, the systems do NOT take in account the “typically XX years of depreciation”, and instead are based on actual observed conditions.

Q: What if I know a project is funded to replace a system, but the work has not begun?

A: If the project has been funded, it is assumed the project will take place, and the condition should be rated as excellent. If the project has been identified, but has not actually been funded, you should rate the system based on observed conditions. If the funding information is not available, rate the system based on observed conditions.

Q: What if a system on the Audit Form does NOT exist in the building, what condition do I rate it on the

Audit Form?

A: If a system on the audit form is not located in the building and is not required to be there, rate the rest of the building to see what the average building rating is, and check the condition category that is most present in the building.

Example 1: A storage building does not have any plumbing systems in the building. I rate all the other systems and see that most conditions are in the fair category. I will then rate the plumbing system as Fair, as to not impact the overall building rating based on a system that does not exist.

Example 2: A single story building does not have or require an elevator. I go through the audit form and rate everything else in the building and see my building came out in good condition based on the total number of good systems being higher than any other condition. I would rate the Elevator system to Good so it does not sway the building condition in one direction or the other. Note – see more detailed elevator examples in the categories below.

Q: How does energy efficiency affect condition?

A: Energy efficiency alone does not affect the condition of any system. If light fixtures utilize T12 lamps but are in good condition, the system will not be rated down. Q: What if I see a condition that poses an immediate life safety hazard to students/occupants while in the

building?

A: Report immediately to appropriate manager or staff member.

Kansas Board Of Regents – Facility Condition Audit - 2012

21

Q: What if I have systems with a HAZMAT component such as asbestos, lead paint, PCBs, etc.?

A: Use the observed condition, and then reduce by one conditional category.

Example 1: HVAC pipe insulation is confirmed asbestos, but there are no leaks in the system and the observable valves are only showing signs of light corrosion, which puts the observable condition to Fair, but due to the asbestos, will reduce from Fair down one conditional category to Poor. Note – if this is present in a very limited quantity, use your best judgment on whether to reduce a whole condition category or not.

Example 2: Asbestos 9”x9” floor tiles appear to be in Fair condition based on observations alone. Reduce the condition by one level to Poor. Note, if the area is really small, or can be remediated fairly cheaply, use your best judgment on whether to reduce a condition level or not.

Q: What if a system that is aged, but has been well maintained and appears to be in good overall

condition?

A: Rate the system based on your actual observed conditions. It is very possible to have a system that is 20+ years old that can still rate in “Good” condition. See also Exterior Walls.

Q: How do I rate a system in a building that has had 3 different renovations to the system?

A: You will have to determine a rough percentage of each renovated system, and then average between the conditions. If I have 100,000SF of ceiling tiles in a building with 10,000SF in Excellent condition, 30,000SF in Good condition, and 60,000SF in Poor condition, the overall condition should be Fair. The math behind these numbers is as follows. 60,000SF = 60% of space X 0.45 (Poor) = 27, while 30,000SF = 30% of space x 0.85 = 25.5, and 10,000SF = 10% of space x 0.95 (Excellent) = 9.5. Add together 27 + 25.5 + 9.5 = 62.5. This will give your overall condition rating which falls in the Fair category of 60-79. If you think an item deserves a lower or higher number in each range, you can adjust the percentage as necessary within the range limits of each condition category.

Q: How does age affect the condition of a system?

A: If the system is structural, or a wall/floor/ceiling finish system, you base the condition only on observed conditions. If the system is electrical, and you know you can no longer obtain replacement breakers, bus bars, etc., you can factor that into your overall condition of the system. No system should be Unsatisfactory based on age alone.

Q: What is mechanical/electrical equipment is located in one building but serves another?

A: In this instance, you consider only the equipment located in the building being assessed. If pumps in the basement of Bldg. A actually serves Bldg. B, you still consider those pumps and condition with Bldg A.

A – Exterior Building Stairs

Q: How do I account for stairs that appear to be in good structural condition, but have low, non-compliant railings that pose a fall hazard to students/occupants?

A: Take the observed condition, in this case “Good”, and reduce by one conditional category to “Fair” condition. Exterior Walls

Q: I see some cracking in the lintels surrounding the building, but nothing appears to be very concerning, how would I rate this?

A: It is possible to rate the exterior walls as either good, fair, or poor based on the extent of what you are seeing. It is beneficial to see if you are getting water intrusion into the actual structure throughout, which could cause a rating of Poor. If it appears to be light stress cracks from different compressive materials, it could be possible to remediate with basic maintenance (seal, caulk, etc.) which could rate as Good, or it could be somewhere in between where it may need a little more repair work, rating it as Fair.

Kansas Board Of Regents – Facility Condition Audit - 2012

22

Roof Q: How do I account for a building that has 2 separate roofs that are in two different conditions?

A: Estimate the area of the 2 roofs, and take an average condition of the two. Example 1: If 50% is in Good condition and 50% is in Poor condition, the roof will average out to Fair

condition. Example 2: If 20% of the roof is in Good condition, and 80% is in Poor condition, the roof will average out

to remain in the Poor condition, due to the weighted amount of poor. Windows

Q: How do I account for a building that has 2 broken windows and the rest are in good condition?

A: If a very small amount of any system is in poor or unsatisfactory condition, you need to consider if it is an item that would be funded out of a maintenance budget or from a capital planning budget. If there only 2 out of 100 then the system would remain at good, if the 2 account for half of the windows the system would go to Poor.

B – Interior Building Floors

Q: Do floors account for the floor finish, or the floor structure?

A: Floors account for the floor structure assembly, while floor finishes are included with Interior Finishes.

Q: What do I do when I see tripping hazards in the building?

A: If you see a little carpet rippling in the corner of an office or under furniture, it does not pose any substantial problem, however’ if you see a hole in the floor, large cracks in tile, etc., in an egress path, this condition should be reported immediately to the responsible manager or staff member.

Fixed Equipment

Q: Are fume hoods or safety cabinets included with fixed equipment? A: If the equipment is funded and maintained by Facilities, it would be included with fixed equipment.

Interior Doors

Q: What if I see a door that swings in the wrong direction (against egress paths)?

A: If located in one specific area, report it to appropriate manager. If located in multiple places throughout the building, reduce the observed condition of the doors by one conditional category.

Elevators

Q: How do I account for elevator systems?

A: If elevators are required by code but missing, set the condition to Unsatisfactory. If elevators are required but the program can be moved, set the condition to Fair. If elevators are present and cab controls are non-compliant set it to one level below observed condition. If elevators are present but are not ADA compliant for space requirements, set condition to Poor.

C – Engineered Systems Plumbing

Q: Where do I account for steam to domestic hot water heaters?

A: All domestic or laboratory water heaters and associated circulator pumps and piping is included with the plumbing systems. The exception is the steam piping used to convert hot water, which will be included with the HVAC system.

Kansas Board Of Regents – Facility Condition Audit - 2012

23

HVAC and BACS Q: How do I account for HVAC and BACS systems that have multiple component replacements of

different conditions?

A: It is best to use a break-down of the systems present in the building and weight those systems on a point scale. For example, Boilers, chillers, and air handlers are weighted heavier than pumps alone. It’s very possible to have chilled water pumps in poor condition, but the overall HVAC system rate as Good.

Life Safety Systems

Q: How do I account for Sprinkler Systems?

A: If sprinklers are present throughout use the observed condition. If sprinklers are different ages/conditions set to the average of the observed conditions. If sprinklers are missing but required, set the Life Safety system condition category to Unsatisfactory. If original building has no sprinklers, but a new similar sized addition is sprinkler protected without proper separation, set the Life Safety condition category to Unsatisfactory.

Q: How do I account for Fire Alarm systems?

A: If fire alarm system is present and functional, rate based on observed condition. If fire alarm is not present, but is required by code, the entire life safety system condition automatically goes to Poor. If fire alarm is present but missing numerous devices throughout, life safety condition goes to Fair.

Q: How do I account for Emergency Lighting or Exit Signs? A: If system is present, rate on observed conditions.

If Emergency Lighting or Exit Signs are completely missing throughout but required, rate the other life safety systems (Sprinklers, Fire Alarm) first, then reduce total life safety category by one conditional category. If Emergency Lighting is integrated within the building lighting fixtures, the system must be the same condition you gave for lighting.
