A Structural Integrity Reserve Study (SIRS) is a study of the reserve funds required for future major repairs and replacement of the common elements based on a visual inspection. The study involves a visual check and estimates how long the roof, load-bearing walls, floors, foundation, fireproofing, fire protection systems, plumbing, and any other major item needing maintenance or replacement (costing over $10,000) can last. It will also estimate the cost to replace these elements. These inspections must be performed by an engineer licensed under chapter 471, an architect licensed under chapter 481, or a person certified as a reserve specialist or professional reserve analyst by the Community Associations Institute or the Association of Professional Reserve Analysts.
