Documentation for some Verisk models includes a document that serves as a guide to the secondary risk characteristics (SRCs) used in the model. SRCs are features of a building and its environment that have a significant impact on the building’s vulnerability to damage during an event. The SRCs are important contributing factors to losses sustained by residential, commercial, and industrial properties. You can search the Client Portal for SRC documents by typing secondary risk characteristics in the Search field.
