“…According to Drukis's work [9], many inspectors are exposed to certain risks when entering tall buildings, such as falls, slips, collisions, burns, electrocution, and even explosion injuries. In addition, many other risks, such as inappropriate climbing structures, hazards associated with heights, biohazards, heat stress, cold exposure, and noise, are identified.…”

“…As a result, construction industry researchers have been calling for new methods to be proposed to eliminate these safety risks. Previously, Drukis also [9] argued that current building inspections are usually carried out through manual labor methods, which are laborious, time-consuming, and inefficient. Worse, the results of manually conducted building surface health inspections are highly subjective [10].…”

Cracks in building facades are inevitable due to the age of the building. Cracks found in the building facade may be further exacerbated if not corrected immediately. Considering the extensive size of some buildings, there is definitely a need to automate the inspection routine to facilitate the inspection process. The incorporation of deep learning technology for the classification of images has proven to be an effective method in many past civil infrastructures like pavements and bridges. There is, however, limited research in the built environment sector. In order to align with the Smart Nation goals of the country, the use of Smart technologies is necessary in the building and construction industry. The focus of the study is to identify the effectiveness of deep learning technology for image classification. Deep learning technology, such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), requires a large amount of data in order to obtain good performance. It is, however, difficult to collect the images manually. This study will cover the transfer learning approach, where image classification can be carried out even with limited data. Using the CNN method achieved an accuracy level of about 89%, while using the transfer learning model achieved an accuracy of 94%. Based on this, it can be concluded that the transfer learning method achieves better performance as compared to the CNN method with the same amount of data input.

“…The physical appearance of buildings used as public institutions constitutes the basis upon which the society makes their initial judgment of the quality of services to be offered. When buildings are not maintained or neglected especially in relation to replacing leaking roofs, damaged electricity cables, broken floor tiles, crack on walls, water ingress, dilapidation are bound to occur which may result in extensive and unavoidable damages to the building fabric and physical structure [8] (Seth Emmanuel 2014).…”

Building maintenance is a very important aspect of every nation's infrastructural development and when properly maintained will preserve the condition of building and other facilities which will in turn reduce the rate of interruption in occupants' services and productivity. This study centered on the impact of maintaining public university buildings and the legal consequences on the management of the university with a population of 56.251 occupants. The author used qualitative and quantitative methods and stratified random sampling techniques for the study. Structured questionnaires were administered as instruments for data collection. 382 questionnaires were sent out, and only 268 copies were returned representing 70% respondent rate; the remaining 30% 114(30%) of the copies produced were not returned and unaccounted for. The return rate is well thought-out as satisfactory for the analysis (Kathari, 2011). Consequently, the 268 copies returned were used for the analysis. And from the qualitative study, physical inspection revealed 14 building elements that were in a state of dis-repair. Hence, finding from the study reveal that regular and periodic maintenance of building element and other facilities will enhance continuing viable improvement of occupants activities and further help them achieve their goal that will usher sustainable growth in the university. The implication of this finding is that, while keeping the public universities on the part of development remain primary in the policy objectives of successive government, one can state that these conditions appear to be a leaning that has been deeply rooted into the system by demonstrating the pervasiveness and systematic nature that lack of regular maintenance has remained a major set-back to the productive development of the Nigerian public university.

“…Differences in the condition of cultural heritage buildings compared to modern buildings require special handling since their material and historical value demands specific handling (Baharuddin, Bahrdin, Rashid, & Hashim, 2014). The Building operations must consider the safety of its occupants, even if the buildings are hundreds of years old (Druķis, Gaile, & Pakrastiņš, 2017). The buildings which are more than 100 years old require more attention, especially in the safety system.…”

Modern and cultural heritage buildings’ safety is mandatory. The damage they suffered, especially the heritage buildings, requires the owners and managers to further improve the supervision of the safety aspects. This study aims to identify, assess, and respond to the safety risk of the heritage buildings. This research was conducted in Jakarta utilizing interviews and questionnaires to identify the risks. Experts and other respondents were deliberately chosen were chosen according to their experience. The risks were analyzed by the probability and weight matrices. This study reveals three high risks and provides the solution to reduce the risk. In addition to academic benefits, the findings are beneficial for the owners and suggest the government carry out risk management.
