a) Empanelment:

b) Eligibility for Structural Engineers

c) Fees:

Keeping in view of the earlier Action Plan and discussions held in the meetings, the following

additions are done for re-action plan:-

1.

Keeping in view the large number of properties to be evaluated, more number of Structural Engineers

can be empanelled. In this regard, public notice may be given asking the Structural Engineers of this field to get

themselves empanelled. The empanelment of Structural Engineers should also be done by other Agencies like

Central Public Works Department / Delhi Development Authority / Cantonment Board / New Delhi Municipal

Council, Urban Development Department, Government of National Capital Territory Delhi etc. for this purpose.

a)

The empanelled Structural Engineers can be approached by the citizens and the residents for securing

certificates and for queries, w.r.t. the structural safety of the units and other related details. The list of the

empanelled Structural Engineers with their names, mobile numbers etc. will be published in the major

newspapers and will also be placed on the website of all MCDs and other related Departments so that they are

accessible to the general public and residents.

b)

In addition to this, the list of the responsible officers in the Disaster Management Authority, who can

also be approached for their by the citizens for securing certificates and for queries, w.r.t. the structural safety

of their units and other related details, shall be placed on the website of related departments.

c)

In addition to this, the name and contact numbers of the responsible officials at Zonal level from the

Building Department as well the Maintenance Department shall be placed on the website who can be

approached by the citizens for securing certificates and for queries, w.r.t. the structural safety of the units and

other related details.

d)

Similarly, the names and the contact numbers of the responsible officers from the Central Public Works

Department, Cantonment Board, New Delhi Municipal Council, Delhi Development Authority and other related

Departments shall be placed on the website who can be approached by the citizens and the residents for securing

certificates and for queries, w.r.t. the structural safety of the units and other related details.

e)

(i). Delhi falling in Seismic Zone-IV but there is a variation in the vulnerability in different areas.

Some areas are more vulnerable or dangerous. It can also be said that some Zones are in High Risk Zones and

others are in Moderate or Low Risk Zones. The National Institute of Disaster Management has done a lot of

work on this aspect and based on their study, the Action Plan for evaluation of the properties and subsequent

retrofication can be made. As per this study, the Zones / Areas which are of High Risk Zones should be

evaluated immediately and within a short time span and on the second and third phase, the other Zones can be

taken.

ii). There are many high rise buildings also having height more than 15 meters. The evaluation of the buildings

shall be done phasewise wherein the High Rise Buildings shall be evaluated and subsequently the retrofication

can be made in first phase and in a short span and subsequently thereafter the other buildings can be taken in

subsequent phases.

iii).The buildings can also be classified on the basis of the year of construction i.e. very old, old and new and

their evaluation can be done phase-wise respectively.

iv). That “As per Clause 2.1.3 of UBBL-16 (modified), the owner/applicant, at the time of submitting

application for building permit, has to submit in Performa-1 of Common Application Form (CAF), a certificate

of Structural Safety from a designated Structural Engineer that he has/shall follow Structural Safety

requirements in accordance to National Building Code 2016 Part-IV. The Structural Engineer is required to

certify that the structural design shall be based on National Building Code, including safety from natural

hazards, based on soil conditions will be taken into consideration and would be duly incorporated in structural

drawings of the buildings to be constructed.

6

DELHI GAZETTE : EXTRAORDINARY

PART IV]

The above provisions of the UBBL-2016 have been incorporated to ensure structural safety including safety

from natural hazards like seismic safety as per National Building Code in new/upcoming buildings”.

Note : This provision in the UBBL-2016 as well as MPD-2021 ensures that the new buildings which are being

constructed after getting the building plans sanctioned shall be following the above mentioned norms with

respect to the structural stability of the buildings and as such these buildings are less vulnerable as compared to

the buildings which are being constructed or have been constructed without getting the building plans

sanctioned.

v). That evaluation of all such types of buildings shall be comprehensively started immediately after the

approval of the Action Plan, phase-wise. The clear timeline for the assessment of these buildings can also be

fixed by considering the facts like quantum of work, ground realities, number of technical persons available and

field situations.

f)

That the onus should lie on the owner / occupier of the existing building(s) to get their building(s)

evaluated within stipulated time frame, from empanelled structural engineer and subsequently carry out the up-

gradation / strengthening / retro-fitting, if required as per the evaluation of the said building.

g)

That practical problem in evaluation would arise due to the multiple owners (floor-wise / area-wise) in

different buildings and for this the necessary provisions in the Building Bye Laws / DMC Act can be done for

enforcing the required provisions.

h)

That in unauthorised colonies, the buildings have been constructed without getting the building plans

sanctioned in an unplanned manner, without any Technical involvement or help and without following any

Structural Designs. There should be a comprehensive and uniform policy for enforcing the Law in unauthorised

colonies also.

i)

That for implementation of the Action Plan and awareness amongst the general public for safety and

protection, wide publicity be given by the Government and different agencies by way of various means viz

website, print media, radio and social media etc.

j)

That for facilitating such a huge reform and data, easy online software is to be developed by the

Information Technology Department of Government / different agencies so that a common man / individual can

have the comprehensive and complete information, guidelines and measures required to be taken by them step

by step, precautions, contact numbers and information about the concerned technical persons as well as officials

etc.

k)

That there is a provision in the Building Bye Laws (UBBL-2016) Clause 9.2 which states that

regarding Seismic Strengthening / Retrofitting, it is necessary that evaluation of the existing structure in regard

to structural vulnerability in the specified wind / seismic hazard zone shall be carried out by a Structural

Engineer. If as per the evaluation of the Structural Engineer, the seismic resistance is assessed to be less than the

specified minimum seismic resistance as per norms, action will be initiated to carry out the upgrading of the

seismic resistance of the building as per applicable standard guidelines. If the owners/occupiers do not get their

properties evaluated as per the requirement and do not make the necessary compliances if required as per the

recommendation of Structural Engineers, the suitable action should be taken against owners of such properties

as per law. The Delhi Jal Board, the concerned electricity department and sub-registrar of Government of

National Capital Territory of Delhi can also be linked for taking necessary action against such properties.

l)

That as per Section 348 / 349 of the DMC Act-1957, if any building is in ruinous conditions, or likely

to fall or in any way dangerous to any person occupying etc. in such cases, the Commissioner by order in

writing, require the owner / occupier of such building to demolish, secure or repair such building or do one more

or such things within a specified period and if any person fails to do so, the building can be vacated or

demolished by the Department.

m)

That if as per the evaluation of the Structural Engineer, the seismic resistance is assessed to be less than

the specified minimum seismic resistance as per norms and strengthening has been suggested by the Structural
