1.3 PURPOSE: The maintenance of the building is essential for ensuring its long-term functionality, safety, and efficiency. A well- maintained facility not only preserves its structural integrity but also enhances the overall operational effectiveness of the organization it serves. The key objectives of building maintenance include:

1. Ensuring Safety and Usability – Proper maintenance ensures that all building systems, including electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and structural components, remain in safe working condition. Regular inspections and repairs help prevent potential hazards such as electrical failures, leaks, water damage, or structural deterioration, safeguarding the well-being of employees, and visitors.

2. Extending the Longevity of Assets – Consistent upkeep of critical infrastructure, equipment, and building components reduces wear and tear, ultimately prolonging the lifespan of assets. Preventative maintenance strategies, such as routine servicing, calibration, and condition monitoring, prevent premature degradation and extend the operational life of essential systems.

3. Optimizing Asset Performance – A well-maintained facility enables all mechanical, electrical, and structural components to operate at their highest efficiency levels. Properly functioning HVAC systems, lighting, and plumbing improve indoor air quality, energy efficiency, and overall workplace productivity.

4. Avoiding Unscheduled Downtime – Proactive maintenance minimizes the likelihood of sudden equipment failures, system breakdowns, or emergency repairs that could disrupt daily operations. This ensures continuous service availability, especially in mission-critical facilities where downtime can lead to operational setbacks and financial losses.

5. Minimizing Operational Costs – Routine maintenance is cost-effective compared to reactive repairs or emergency replacements.

Preventing small issues from escalating into major failures reduces repair expenses, conserves resources, and minimizes disruptions that could impact productivity. Proper asset management also helps in energy conservation, reducing long-term utility costs.

6. Enhancing Compliance with Regulations – Regular maintenance ensures that the building meets local, national, and international building codes, safety standards, and environmental regulations. Compliance with fire safety protocols, electrical standards, and

7. Preserving Property Value – Maintaining the building’s physical structure, aesthetics, and functionality enhances its market value and ensures that it remains a valuable asset for the organization. Neglected properties suffer from depreciation, costly repairs, and reduced efficiency over time.

8. Supporting Sustainability Initiatives – Proper maintenance contributes to environmental sustainability by reducing energy consumption, water wastage, and material waste. Efficient use of resources through maintenance practices such as LED lighting upgrades, HVAC optimizations, and smart building management systems aligns with green building initiatives and corporate sustainability goals.

In conclusion, a well-maintained building is more than just an operational necessity—it is a strategic investment. By implementing a robust maintenance program, the facility remains safe, functional, cost-efficient, and sustainable, ultimately contributing to the success of the organization and the well-being of its occupants and equipment.

The primed area should be adequately cured before the surface course is laid and should be barricaded to prevent traffic from carrying dust or mud onto the surface and after priming.

c) Apply the bitumen (85/100 cutback) at temperature of 200-265F. The quantity of the bitumen required is based on the average particle size of the cover surface. The aggregate must not be completely submerged in the bitumen. The aggregate must be spread immediately after the bitumen while the bitumen is still fluid. Since 85/100 cutback asphalt cools to the temperature of the surface to which is applied in 1-1/2 minutes, the aggregate must be placed within 1 minute.

e) To assure complete coverage, succeeding passes should overlap by one –half the wheel width of the roller.
