How can I object to a risky building determination?
An objection to a risky-building determination requires more than saying that the building appears sound from outside. The procedure turns on who may object, the deadline starting from notification, the competent authority and the precise technical issue in the report. Because the period is short, review the official record and technical report together as soon as the notice is received.
One-minute summary
What to remember before deciding
- Know that the right to object can be exercised by building owners or their legal representatives.
- Follow the current official process, which calculates the fifteen-day period from the last day of the announcement made at the headman's office.
- Make the application with a petition to the Urban Transformation Directorate or, if there is a transfer of authority, to the relevant municipality.
- Don't leave the objection with the sentence "the building is solid"; Determine the technical points that need to be examined in the reports and accounts with the expert.
- Take into account that the technical committee can examine the report in all its elements and in case of rejection, the determination becomes final.
Determine the start date of the objection period by official announcement, not by assumption
The first critical information in the objection file is not the age of the building, but the date of notification.
According to the current statement of the Urban Transformation Directorate, the report containing risky building identification information is hung on the building, notified to the owners via e-Government and announced in the relevant headman's office for fifteen days. The risky building determination is deemed to have been notified to the real and personal rights holders on the last day of the mukhtar's announcement.
Building owners or their legal representatives may object within fifteen days from this date. The photo of the report hung on the door, the e-Government notification and the muhtar's announcement dates should be recorded together. The time calculation should not be left to the hearing or the day when the neighbor sees the message.
The starting and ending days must be separately verified by the legal professional with the official record.
Time warningDo not waste time reviewing the technical report.Objection preparation should begin with the simultaneous work of the legal professional and the relevant engineering expertise as soon as the notification and announcement records are seen.
Determine the right to apply and the competent authority correctly
The right to object to the official statement is granted to building owners or their legal representatives. In a shareholding structure, the current ownership and representation authority of the applicant must be documented. If a proxy is applying, the scope of the power of attorney should be checked.
Objection to the Urban Transformation Directorate where the building is located; If authority is transferred, it is done by petition to the relevant municipality. It should not be assumed that the application is completed by simply sending an e-mail to the wrong institution or registering with the call center. The document registration number and delivery date must be obtained.
| Title | Verification | Risk |
|---|---|---|
| Applicant | Current owner or legal representative | Rejection regarding driver's license |
| Duration | Last day of the muhtar post announcement | Late application |
| Merci | Directorate or competent municipality | Wrong delivery |
| Registration | Document number and date | Failure to prove application |
Establish the grounds for objection based on the method and data of the report
Objection to the determination of a risky building should not be based on statements that do not produce technical results on their own, such as the fact that the building has survived past earthquakes or that no cracks are visible to the eye. The building geometry, carrier system information, material data, samples and tests, calculation model and regulation acceptances in the determination report should be examined by the relevant expert.
The difference between the existing approved project and the on-site structure, subsequent interventions, incorrect independent section or block matching, and the source of the data used in the report should be checked. The objection petition must be prepared according to the procedure by a lawyer, and according to the technical content by a civil engineer and, if necessary, other experts.
- Accuracy of the examined block and structure identity
- Accurate modeling of the carrier system and geometry
- Adequacy of sample, test and material data
- Matching the approved project with the existing structure
- Compliance with the Principles for Identification of Risky Structures
Know that the technical committee is not limited only to the sentences in the petition
The technical committee examines the objection. According to the KDB statement, the committee evaluates the risky structure detection report with all its technical elements and compliance with the principles in force, regardless of the objection stated in the petition. At the end of the examination, a final technical decision is made regarding whether the structure is risky or risk-free.
Therefore, an objection does not automatically mean a second independent test or the building being declared risk-free. The technical committee evaluates the current report, annexes and the necessary technical framework. Every document submitted to the file must be verifiable, structurally relevant and answering technical questions.
- Detection report and all its annexes
- Objection petition and technical explanations
- Approved project and construction documents, if any
- Expert report, experimental or comparison data
- Committee decision and notification record
Plan different decision paths after acceptance and rejection
If the technical committee does not find the determination appropriate and decides that the structure is risk-free, the relevant records are updated according to this result. If the objection is rejected or if no objection is made in time, the risky structure determination becomes final; The evacuation and demolition process continues with official notifications.
Subsequent legal remedies, such as administrative litigation or stay of execution, are subject to periods and conditions different from the scope of this guide. When the technical committee's decision is made, the transformation, reinforcement possibility, evacuation, temporary shelter and owner decision calendar should be re-established together with the lawyer, architect and civil engineer.
| Result | First effect | Next study |
|---|---|---|
| The detection was not found appropriate | Risky structure varies as a result | Record and monitor the implementation of the decision |
| Objection rejected | Detection becomes final | Evacuation/demolition and legal options |
| No objection | At the end of the period, the determination becomes final | Conversion and temporary housing plan |
