33、. Summary of Practice4.1 The objectives of this practice are as follows:4.1.1 To synthesize and document good commercial practice for the determination and rating of seismic risk for buildings.4.1.2 To facilitate standardization of earthquake risk evaluation terminology for financial transactions.4.

34、1.3 To establish an industry standard for the requirements to evaluate the financial risk for real estate.5. Significance and Use5.1 This practice is intended for use as a voluntary standard by parties who wish to undertake the seismic risk assessment ofproperties.The goal is for users to objectivel

35、y and reliably compare the financial risks of earthquake damage to buildings, or groupsof buildings, on a consistent basis.5.2 This practice is designed to provide requirements for the evaluation of earthquake damage risk so that technical reportsprepared for the evaluation and rating of seismic ris

36、k of a building(s) will be adequate for use by other entities. Potential usersincluding, but are not be limited to, those making equity investments, lending, and financial transactions, including securitizedmortgage lending by mortgage originators, loan servicers, underwriters, rating agencies, and

37、purchasers of bonds secured by thereal estate.5.3 The use of this practice may permit a user to satisfy, in part, their requirements for due diligence in assessing a propertyspotential for losses associated with earthquakes for real estate transactions.6. Due-Diligence Investigation6.1 The site stab

38、ility, building stability and building damageability of the property shall be assessed.6.2 The user shall specify the condition of the property to be evaluated. The seismic performance can be evaluated for theproperty in its current condition, or as changed by proposed modification of the seismic re

39、sponse of the soils supporting thebuilding or a proposed seismically retrofitted condition of the building(s) or its sections, or both.any combination of theseconditions.6.2.1 The proposed seismic modifications of the site must be sufficiently described to allow evaluation of the modifications byan

40、independent qualified party.Independent Reviewer.6.2.2 The proposed seismic modifications of the building systems must be sufficiently described to allow evaluation of themodifications by a qualified third party.an Independent Reviewer.6.3 The Guide E2026 level of investigation shall be specified by

41、 the user. The same level of investigation should be performedfor each type of the seismic risk assessment. Appendix X1 gives guidance on the setting of the level of investigation.6.4 The qualifications of the providerProvider shall be specified as required for the level of investigation specified i

The qualifications level must be equal to or higher than the corresponding level specified in 6.3.6.2 Appendix X1gives further guidance on the setting of minimum qualifications.and 6.3.6.4.1 For an assessment of Level 1 or higher, the qualifications of Senior Assessor and

43、the Field Assessor of the property andits buildings shall be those of Guide E2026 Sections 6.2.3.2 and 6.2.3.3.E2557 1636.4.2 Notwithstanding the asserted level of investigation of a report, if the Senior Assessor or the Field Assessor, or both, donot demonstrate the qualifications of Guide E2026 Se
