Abstract | The University of Georgia (UG) conducted a complete campus building condition evaluation survey in 1989 that identified the nature and magnitude of the capital renewal/deferred maintenance requirements for each campus building. The survey design was based on a model developed by Harlan Bareither at the University of Illinois. Data were collected at weekly meetings held for 3 hours each over several months. The dollar value of all necessary capital renewal and deferred maintenance work was estimated on a building by building basis. The total analysis covered 1,118 buildings comprising over 11 million square feet. The estimate for each building was compared to the total replacement value of the building and the resultant percentage deficiency was recorded. Results found that: (1) roof and window replacements totaled almost $19 million; (2) new fixed equipment and elevators totaled over $36 million; (3) plumbing and fire protection waste piping and sprinkler systems totaled over $22 million; (4) replacement of heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems equipment and controls accounted for almost $79 million; and (5) new distribution wiring and fire alarms were estimated at $22 million. The analysis also noted that under a formula funding system like the one UG uses, the total deficiency of almost 30 percent cannot be corrected with the planned yearly funding level of .75 percent of total replacement cost.
