This paper introduces the U.S. standard system for existing buildings, analyzes the seismic evaluation techniques, and focuses on the FEMA P-154-2015 rapid visual screening method and the ASCE/SEI 41-23 three-level evaluation process. The United States adopts a grading mode characterized by “graded screening, differentiated evaluation, and targeted reinforcement” for the governance of existing buildings. This mode offers the advantages of flexibility and high efficiency, while also having certain limitations. By comparing the standards of the two countries and considering China's actual conditions, this paper proposes recommendations, such as defining benchmark buildings to simplify the evaluation process and improving performance-based assessment methods to complement traditional appraisals. It aims to provide technical references for construction projects under “the Belt and Road” initiative, thereby offering insights for the scientific and standardized management of existing buildings as well as for urban renewal.
