Maintenance management of ageing buildings in Hong Kong

Abstract

Identifies and discusses the problems involved in maintaining Hong Kong′s older buildings: deficiencies in existing legislation, organizational difficulties, lack of public awareness, and manpower shortages. Concludes that public education about maintenance is the best long‐term solution, while in the short term rationalization of manpower and changes to legislation are needed to ease the burden to the Government.
