Structural integrity reserve study (SIRS)
A residential condominium association must complete a structural integrity reserve study for each building three habitable stories or higher, at least every 10 years after the condominium's creation. The study inspects and estimates reserves for load-bearing and safety-critical components (roof, structure, fireproofing, plumbing, electrical, waterproofing, windows, and any item over a cost threshold).
What to keep on file
- Completed SIRS report PDF
- Engineer/architect engagement letter
- Board resolution accepting the study
The exact date depends on your association's facts, such as your building age, unit count, and board dates. Run the free assessment to see when this is due for your board, with the proof to keep.
When to bring in a professional
Ask your licensed engineer or architect (reserve specialist): Which buildings on our property meet the three-habitable-stories threshold, and what is our next SIRS due date given our creation date and any milestone inspection?

Answers at a glance
Who does the structural integrity reserve study requirement apply to?
Condominium and cooperative buildings three stories or higher. A residential condominium association must complete a structural integrity reserve study for each building three habitable stories or higher, at least every 10 years after the condominium's creation.
When is the structural integrity reserve study due?
The exact date depends on your association's facts, such as your building's age, unit count, and key board dates. For most boards it recurs about every 10 years. Run the free assessment to see the exact date for your board, with the proof to keep.
What should our board keep on file for the structural integrity reserve study?
Keep Completed SIRS report PDF, Engineer/architect engagement letter, and Board resolution accepting the study. HOACompliant stores each in one binder, ready for a records request or a fine hearing.
Which Florida statute governs the structural integrity reserve study?
Fla. Stat. 718.112(2)(g). We last verified this against the primary statute on 2026-07-22.
Should our board involve a professional?
Ask your licensed engineer or architect (reserve specialist): Which buildings on our property meet the three-habitable-stories threshold, and what is our next SIRS due date given our creation date and any milestone inspection?
Does HOACompliant file this or confirm our board is compliant?
No. HOACompliant is record-keeping: it tracks what is due, when, and the proof to keep, each obligation cited to the governing Florida statute. It never files anything on a board's behalf, never states that a board is or is not compliant, and is not legal advice.
