What is a Facility Condition Assessment
ASTM Standard 2018 FCA Facility Condition Assessment PCA Property Condition Asssessment PNA Physical Needs Assessment BER Building Evaluation Report. Purpose The purpose of this guide is to define good commercial and customary practice in the United States of America for conducting a baseline property condition assessment (PCA) of the improvements located on a parcel of commercial real estate by performing a walk-through survey and conducting research as outlined within this guide. 3

Typical Detail on Roofing Common roof compositions: Shingled: Small units of material which are laid in a series of overlapping rows as a roof covering on pitched roofs. Built-up: constructed on the roof using layers of component materials such as felts and asphalt. Membrane: flexible sheets of compounded synthetic materials, manufactured offsite and secured to a roof deck over insulation. 12
Typical Detail on Roofing Assessment identifies: Material roof systems (exposed membrane and flashings) Slope and drainage Oriented Strand Board (OSB) damage ponding or leaks Seam/lap failure Ridging, blistering Deterioration, alligatoring 13
Typical Detail on HVAC Confirm information given by maintenance contractor Determine what areas are served by what equipment, identify Owner vs. tenant responsibility Determine estimated and remaining useful life (EUL, RUL) Split systems, Rooftop units, Heat Pumps Boilers Cooling Tower, Chiller, Condenser Units Fan Coil and Air Handling Units Packaged Terminal Air Conditioners (PTAC) 14
