Asset Categorization by System
A Comprehensive Overview of Remediation Systems and Dependencies
Executive Summary
This document provides a comprehensive categorization of assets (products) based on their operational dependencies within remediation systems. The classification framework organizes 29 individual assets across seven distinct system categories, enabling a better understanding of product relationships, dependencies, and operational requirements.
The remediation systems covered in this document represent critical infrastructure components used in foundation repair, structural support, water management, and environmental control applications. Each system category contains specialized assets that work together to provide comprehensive solutions for building remediation and maintenance.

Systems Overview
Categorization Framework
The asset categorization system employed in this document is based on functional dependencies and operational relationships between products within remediation applications. This systematic approach ensures that related assets are grouped based on their primary function, installation requirements, and interdependencies.
Remediation Systems Classification
The seven primary system categories represent distinct functional areas within building remediation and structural repair:
1. Structural Support Systems - Assets that provide direct structural reinforcement and load-bearing capacity to building foundations and frameworks.
2. Foundation Systems - Deep-driven and surface-mounted solutions that address foundation stability, settlement, and structural integrity issues.
3. Water Management Systems - Comprehensive drainage, collection, and discharge solutions that control moisture and prevent water damage.
4. Environmental Control Systems - Encapsulation and climate control assets that manage humidity, air quality, and environmental conditions.
5. Anchoring and Bracing Systems - Specialized hardware and reinforcement components that secure and stabilize structural elements.
6. Adjustable Support Systems - Variable-height and adjustable components that provide flexible structural support solutions.
System Dependencies
Each system category comprises assets designed to work together as integrated solutions. Understanding these dependencies is crucial for proper system design, installation planning, and maintenance scheduling. Assets within each category share standard installation requirements, operational parameters, and maintenance protocols.
The categorization also reflects supply chain relationships, as assets within the same system category often share suppliers, installation contractors, and technical support resources. This organizational structure facilitates efficient procurement, inventory management, and project planning.
Detailed System Breakdown
1. Adjustable Column Systems
System Overview: Adjustable column systems offer variable-height structural support solutions that can be tailored to meet specific load requirements and installation conditions. These systems provide flexibility in both initial installation and future adjustments as building conditions change.
Primary Applications: - Temporary structural support during construction or renovation - Permanent load-bearing support for compromised structural elements - Height adjustment for settling or shifting foundations - Support for elevated structures and platforms.
