Forensic building is needed to examine the affected building\nstructure components to assess the structural integrity. This paper\nhighlights some of the studies involved on affected concrete structures in\nvarious building types where the non-destructive test (NDT) and\ndestructive tests. The structural integrity can be evaluated based on the\nextent of deterioration from the experimental results for instance the cause\nof the corrode reinforcements was due to inadequate concrete cover,\nwhereas the failure of the concrete wall was due to structures� under design\nwhich leads to the collapse of the wall. The condition of the floor slab that\nexperience vibration was assessed from the Laser Doppler Vibrator test\n(LDV). Based on the test results the peak acceleration of the particular\nfloor slab is higher.
