Yes, it is common practice for buildings to undergo periodic assessments of their structural integrity to ensure ongoing safety and stability. These assessments are usually carried out by qualified structural engineers who evaluate various factors such as the building's construction materials, design, load-bearing capacity, and any potential deterioration or damage over time. Based on the findings, the engineer may recommend maintenance, repairs, or even structural enhancements to ensure the building remains safe and stable for its occupants.
