Chapter 3. ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION OF DATA

A. SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS
3.1.1 Identification/Assessment of Needs

- Pampanga is the centre of central Luzon which will support the Renal Health care of our
locality in the 6 nearby provinces.
- Effective methods and management that will enhance the healing and curing of Renal
Diseases.

- Provide an advance research facility and information related to renal diseases.

- Impede the continuous growth of mortality cases in renal diseases which is number 2 in
the 10 leading cause of death in the region.

3.1.2. RESTATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM


After analyzing all collected/given facts, data and information needed, the proponents
now classify the problems.

- Renal disease cases are increasing which is number 2 in the leading cause of mortality
in the region.

- Pampanga hospitals are lack of specialization when it comes in the kidney related
diseases.

- Easy accessibility to visit the medicorum with specialization in kidney rather than to go
in national kidney transplant institute in quezon city, which traffic is the main problem of
the said location.

3.1.3 Recommendation

Since the project is a health care facility, it deals more on the physical well-being
of the people. It is also concerned with their mental and emotional health so in designing
the structures, glocal design should be incorporated in the proposed project to speed up
the recovery process of the patients and can even improve the health of the other users of
the hospital.

For instance, the use of healing colours in the development will help the patients
feel at ease, relieved and less stressed because these colours can contribute to their faster
recovery and it can also affect their moods and behaviour in a good way. Landscaped
gardens and other greeneries also contribute to the better design of the building which has
good effects on the well being of the patients and other users of the hospital.

3.2. THE SITE


In 1977, the estimated built-up area of Angeles City was 1,390.12 hectares representing
22.36 percent of its total land area. In mid-2009 or 32 years after, this has doubled
reaching about 2,986.47 hectares which is equivalent to 48.03 percent of the city’s total
land area (Figure 1). This left the City with approximately 2,388 hectares of patches of
agricultural lands distributed across its territory. Note that Angeles City has an estimated
population of 170,575 and 330,059 for 1977 and 2009, respectively. If the present
population growth rate of 2.44% based on the 2000 and 2007 censuses on population
will not change, Angeles City’s population will double in 28 years or come 2035. As
such, its remaining agricultural lands may fully give way for urban expansion. Moreover,
settlement pressures on forest reserves and environmentally constrained areas will
remain strong. Historically, Angeles City is the most important urban center in Central
Luzon complemented by the neighboring city of San Fernando and the municipality of
Mabalacat. This function is expected to be further enhanced due to the interplay of
improving infrastructure stock, growing economic base, expanding population, and rising
income. Said urbanization and development trends will pull Angeles City from all
directions. These require better planning and land use management to effectively direct
and control development. This updated comprehensive land use plan was prepared to
effectively carry out and sustain the planned development of Angeles City.

Strategic Location
Shown in Figure 2 is the inferred hierarchy of urban centers in Central Luzon illustrating
the spatial relationship of the different central places. Most major urban centers are the
provincial capital towns and cities which through the years have maintained certain
degree of primacy because they acted as the seat of political power. Others became
providers of higher level services because they have a location advantage, advanced
infrastructure facilities (road or railroad), or endowed with exploitable natural resources.

population in Central Luzon is in the province of Pampanga. This is exactly in the

crossroads of MacArthur Highway, the Gapan-San Fernando-Olongapo Road, Subic-

Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEx) and North Luzon Expressway (NLEx). Angeles City

is strategically located in this regional urban development corridor.

These and the complementing effects of the different economic zones and

transportation infrastructure facilities in Central Luzon (Figure 3) put Angeles City on top

of the list of major urban development centers in the country.

3.2.1 BACKGROUND

Angeles City recorded a total population of 411,634 as of 2015. The growth rate is
estimated at 2.32%. The language used is Kapampangan, but Tagalog and English
language is also spoken and understood anywhere in the province.

The City of Angeles has a total land area of 60.27 km2 (23.27 sq mi) which is divided
into different land use like residential (34.25%), agricultural (39.43%), and then followed
by commercial, industrial, institutional facilities and parks. The city is located in the
province of Pampanga, Philippines. It is bordered by Mabalacat City to the north; Mexico
to the east; San Fernando to the southeast; Bacolor to the couth; and Porac to the
southwest and west.

3.2.2 Site Selection Criteria


The Site Criteria was provided for a purpose of the proponents for being liable at any
requirements and standard established by the Government. Site selection is important
since the users need a relaxing, safe and accessible healing environment. This is to ensure
that the selected site is suited for the project “Angeles City Renal Care Center”.

A. Rationale

A hospital should be available 24 hours a day to its service catchment is for the provision
of the entire spectrum of health care. In times of diseases and calamities, a hospital must
remain absolutely accessible and should be the last institution ever to stop operation.

Successful health care delivery is therefore linked to the location of sites of hospitals and
health facilities. Making the correct decision on the identification of sites is just the
beginning of the problem. For the site of the hospital and health facility is finally selected
based on its accessibility, physical conditions, acceptability and land development costs.

BOGNOT – GARCIA - LINGAT


ANGELES CITY RENAL CARE CENTER
118

B. Factors to be Considered in Locating a Hospital


a.) It should be within 15 – 30 minutes traveling time. In a district with good
roads and adequate means of transport, this would mean a service zone with a
radius of about 25 kilometers.

b.) It should be grouped with other institutional facilities such as religious


(church), educational (school), tribal (cultural) and commercial (market) centres.

c.) It should be free from dangers of flooding, it must therefore not be sited at the
lowest point of the district.

d.) It should be in an area of free of population of any kind, including air, water,
and land population.

e.) It must be serviced by public utilities; water sewage and storm-water disposal,
electricity, gas and telephone. In areas where such utilities are not available,
substitute must be found, such as a deep well for water, generators for electricity
and radio communication for telephone.

C. System and Procedures

C.1. Inventory and profile of alternative site


Site selection starts with an inventory of available lands. The technical details
of the available sites are obtained through ocular and geodetic survey

C.2. Evaluation of the location and quality of site


A number of alternative sites should be assessed based on accessibility,
physical condition, and acceptability, and development costs.

C.2.1. Accessibility
The nearer the site to highly populated areas, the more desirable it is. Land
uses such as residential, commercial, industrial, and institutional are provided
with improved services and are therefore better linked with the hospital, the cost
of infrastructure is likely to go higher and may unlikely get political support when
the site is far from densely populated zones

C.2.2. Physical Conditions


a. Size The site must large enough to meet all the planned physical
requirement s including any expansion envisioned for the hospital within the next
ten years.

b. Topography
A flat and gently rolling terrain are the easiest and least expensive to build on.
A slope one, though difficult and expensive to develop, can offer interesting site
layouts.

c. Soil
Soil characteristics determine building foundation schemes. Ideally, the subsoil
should be such that conventional economical structural design and foundation
plans can be used

d. Available Utilities
Electrical, water and communication lines should be available. If not,
generator, deep wells, water pump, and radio communication lines must be
provided.

e. Natural Features
Natural lakes and ponds and lush vegetation are considered as advantage in
building design. Fruit-bearing and flowering trees and century-old trees like
acacia, should be retained at all costs and the site must be planned according to
their location

C.2.3. Acceptability

A hospital and health facility site should be established in the overall context
of the zoning classification restrictions of the locality, in city and municipal
ordinances which either refine or elaborate existing planning and building laws,
rules and regulations to realize the overall physical plan of the community. Other
aspects which affect the acceptability of the site include peace and order situation,
distance to high voltage transmission lines, cemeteries, slaughterhouses and waste
disposal grounds.

C.2.4. Land Development Costs

Site quality in terms of its development costs, has a major impact on site
selection. For example, land may be susceptible to flooding, subsidence, land
slippage or may be located in soil rock. Such land is cheap to purchase but
expensive to develop.

3.2.6. Baseline Studies

Angeles City is approximately 83 kilometers north of Manila from the Rizal Monument
in Luneta Park to the old City Hall in the city poblacion. It can be accessed through the
MacArthur Highway, the newly rehabilitated North Luzon Expressway (NLEx), and the
newly constructed Subic-Clark Tarlac Expressway (SCTEx).

Topography

Angeles City is predominantly flat with some hilly portions near its boundary with Porac
and Mabalacat in the west side. Shown in Figure 7-2 is a contour map of Angeles City
with a generalized contour 10-meter interval, and a slope section along the east and west
alignment. This slope section cuts across the foothill of the mountains of Porac and
Mabalacat inSapangbato, passes through Friendship and Abacan Bridges all the way to
Pandan Bridge, and finally terminates in the eastern

Figure 7-2Map of Angeles City with contour lines, and a west to eastslope section

BOGNOT – GARCIA - LINGAT


ANGELES CITY RENAL CARE CENTER
128
A Specialized Tertiary Level Hospital for Kidney

The highest elevation of Angeles City is about 440 meters above sea level located at
Sapangbato. However, the slope section shown above did not hit this contour. It started at
340 meters above sea level, peaked at 380 meters, and slowly descended as it moved
going to the eastern border. As it moved towards the east, the elevation descended to 120
meters along Friendship Bridge, went down farther to 90 meters in the Abacan Bridge
area, fell to about 70 meters near the approach of Pandan Bridge, before it finally leveled
at 60 meters below sea level along its boundary with Mexico. This shows a very defined
west to east slope or elevation gradient that generally
followsthe drainageflow ofAbacan River.
Climate

Angeles City has a Type I climate based on the Modified Corona System of Climate
Classification (Figure 7-3). This type has two (2) pronounced seasons, rainy season from
May to November. In 2016, the maximum rain period is from May to October with the
heaviest rainfall registering in the month of August at 514.30 mm. The dry season starts
on December to April with March registering the least rainfall at 0.50 mm. The average
hottest temperature was 29.90C registered in the month of April and May.
The principal wind regimes affecting the area are the northeast wind flow from January
and February, and the southwest wind flow from June to September. The annual
prevailing wind in the area is southwesterly. In 2016, there is no direct hit of typhoon for
Angeles City. But the city was affected by three (3) tropical cyclones which were
Typhoons Karen and Lain in October and Tropical Storm Nina in December.
Transportation

Angeles City, due to its strategic location has a relatively significant resident population
and predominantly service economy. There is a continuous movement of people and
goods from one location to another. Hence, it attracts a very large amount of inter and
intra city traffic. Consequently, the city continues to deal with its substantial demand for
transportation.
Utilities

Utilities include water supply, power and telecommunication systems which are essential
for the continued improvement in the quality of life and growth of the city

Water Supply

Angeles City Water District (ACWD) serves 30 barangays in the city except
BarangaysAmsic, Balibago and part of Malabanias. These barangays are served by
private waterworks systems as well as the other subdivisions in the city.

BOGNOT – GARCIA - LINGAT


ANGELES CITY RENAL CARE CENTER
129
A Specialized Tertiary Level Hospital for Kidney

Power

Angeles Electric Corporation (AEC), a private company is the sole provider of power
supply of the city. It serves the 33 barangays in Angeles City and has a total of 16,852
electric posts as of 2015. The source of power supply and its generating capacity are as
follows:
72 megawatts purchased from the National Power Corporation (NPC)
22 megawatts generated by the Angeles Power Incorporated (API)
6 megawatts generated by its power plant in PulungMaragul

The locations of its metering sub-stations are: Calibu Sub-stationin Calibutbut, Bacolor,
Pampanga; Milenyo Sub-station in Clark Freeport Zone; Petersville Sub-station,
PulungMaragul, Angeles City; and Pampang Sub-station in Arayat Blvd., Pampang,
Angeles City.
Local Drainage and Water Bodies

As previously discussed, the general slope direction of Angeles City follows the west to
east orientation. The city’s main drainage outlet is the Abacan River (the other rivers and
water channels found in Angeles City are shown in Figure 7-6). The interaction of slope,
sandy soil, and presence of numerous creeks and a relatively large river, make Angeles
City well drained and flood-free. However, due to existing land uses and human
activities, localized flooding is being experienced in some parts of the city during the
rainy season.
Being highly urbanized, most of its lands in the built-up areas are already paved. Paved
surfaces cannot absorb rain water and therefore deter infiltration into the soil no matter
how sandy it is. Storm drainage canals constructed several years back now easily
overflow because they have

already reached their peak flood capacity. These inherent weaknesses are amplified by
other factors which include but not limited to: i) encroachment of road right-of-way
(illegal and formal settlers), ii) siltation of water channels, iii) indiscriminate disposal of
garbage, and to certain extent,iv) unplannedand unregulated property development.

Soil Type
Angeles City has two distinct soil types: Angeles Coarse Sand and Angeles Fine Sand.
These soils are well drained and friable which make them suitable both for settlements
development and agriculture. Sandy soils being porous have high water absorption capacity
and easily drains after a heavy downpour. The estimated compositionof fine sand, silt and
clay for the different soil types of Angeles City is found in Table 7-1.
Table 7-1 The Predominant Soil Types in Angeles City,
and theirPercentage (%) composition of Sand, Silt and Clay

Percentage (%) Composition


No. Soil Type
Sand Slit Clay
71 Angeles Coarse Sand 94.5 2 3.5
73 Angeles Fine Sand 79.5 14 5.5

In addition to organic matter or humus, a soil consists of three particles: clay, silt, and sand.
Clay particles have an estimated size at the maximum of 0.002 millimeters across. The size
of silt ranged from 0.002 – 0.05 millimeters. Sand, on the other hand, has a width ranging
from 0.05 - 2.00 millimeter. Angeles Coarse Sand is made up of 94.5% sand, 2% silt, and
3.5% clay. On the other hand, Angeles Fine Sand is composed of 79.5% sand, 14% silt,
and 5.5% clay.

These textural descriptions of the top soils found in Angeles City indicate that the area
drains well internally. Yet the city experiences localized flooding during rainy season and
this is caused by the new land cover –concrete pavement. As lands are being covered by
concrete, rainwater can no longer percolate into the sandy soil but goes to the storm
drainage canals, which unfortunately have limited capacities. Some recommendations and
doable solutions to this concern are found in the environmental management chapter of this
document. In brief though, the city must implement water-sensitive urban development
designs that will not hamper the penetration of rainwater into the soil, such as the use of
permeable paving blocks, construction of infiltration ponds and canals, among others.

Land Use
In 1977, the estimated built-up area of Angeles City was 1,390.12 hectares representing
22.36 percent of its total land area. In mid-2009 or 32 years after, this has doubled
reaching about 2,986.47 hectares which is equivalent to 48.03 percent of thecity’s total
land area (Figure 7-6). This left the city with approximately 2,388 hectares of patches of
agricultural lands distributed across its territory. Note that Angeles City has an estimated
population of 170,575 and 330,059 in 1977 and 2009, respectively. If the present
population growth rate of 2.14% based on the 2000 and 2010 censuses on population will
not change, Angeles City’s population will double in 32 years or come 2042. As such, its
remaining agricultural lands may fully give way for urban expansion. However,the city is
determined to resist settlement pressures on forest reserves and environmentally
constrained areas.

Historically, Angeles City is the most important urban center in Central Luzon
complemented by the neighboring City of San Fernando and the Mabalacat City. This
function is expected to be further enhanced due to the interplay of improving
infrastructure stock, growing economic base, expanding population, and rising income.
Said urbanization and development trends will pull Angeles City from all directions.
These require better planning and land use management to effectively direct and control
development. It is for this purpose that the city formulated its comprehensive land use
plan for 2010-2020.

Water Supply and Distribution System

Measures to utilize surface water as a source of potable water for the city should start this
early since the city’s groundwater supply is already in the critical stage per NWRB/JICA
study. The feasibility of tapping Abacan river should be looked into.

Drainage System and Flood Control Facilities

Measures to address localized and flash flooding during short duration and high intensity
rainfall events should be implemented by the city in coordination with the other agencies
of the government. A city-wide drainage master plan and program shall be prepared, to
be followed immediately by the construction of drainage systems

3.3.2 ENVIRONMENTAL – BEHAVIOR STUDIES

To be successful, it will take patience and understanding knowing the patients


behavior that drives their decision process. A day to day routine or conditioning will
help them recover.

Main Concern

• Rooms
• Ceiling height – unreachable ceiling
• Window designs – more on casement designed uniquely
• Toilet designs – we think toilet are the most private area, well this time it
is designed half private and a half for the nurse to observe the patients.

• Colors – colors have effect on minds, we can use any color except vibrant
colors that represents hazard or that can boost them to be more aggressive.

3.3.3 INTERRELATIONSHIP ANALYSIS

1. Efficiency and Cost-Effectiveness

An efficient hospital layout should:


• Promote staff efficiency by minimizing distance of necessary travel between
frequently used spaces.

• Allow easy visual supervision of patients by limited staff.


• Include all needed spaces, but no redundant ones. This requires careful
predesign programming.

• Make efficient use of space by locating support spaces so that they may be
shared by adjacent functional areas, and by making prudent use of multi-
purpose spaces Group or combine functional areas with similar system
requirements

2.Flexibility and Expandability

BOGNOT – GARCIA - LINGAT


ANGELES CITY RENAL CARE CENTER
150
A Specialized Tertiary Level Hospital for Kidney

Since medical needs and modes of treatment will continue to change,


hospitals should:
• Follow modular concepts of space planning and layout
• Use generic room sizes and plans as much as possible, rather than highly
specific ones

• Be served by modular, easily accessed, and easily modified mechanical and


electrical systems

• Be open-ended, with well planned directions for future expansion; for instance
positioning "soft spaces" such as administrative departments, adjacent to "hard
spaces" such as clinical laboratories.

3.Therapeutic Environment

Hospital patients are often fearful and confused and these feelings may
impede recovery. Every effort should be made to make the hospital stay as
unthreatening, comfortable, and stress-free as possible.

Some important aspects of creating a therapeutic design are:

• Using familiar and culturally relevant materials wherever consistent with


sanitation and other functional needs

• Using cheerful and varied colors and textures, keeping in mind that some colors
are inappropriate and can interfere with provider assessments of patients' pallor
and skin tones, disorient older or impaired patients, or agitate patients and staff,
particularly some psychiatric patients.

• Admitting ample natural light wherever feasible and using color-corrected


lighting in interior spaces which closely approximates natural daylight.

• Providing views of the outdoors from every patient bed, and elsewhere
wherever possible; photo murals of nature scenes are helpful where outdoor
views are not available

BOGNOT – GARCIA - LINGAT


ANGELES CITY RENAL CARE CENTER
151
A Specialized Tertiary Level Hospital for Kidney

• Designing a "way-finding" process into every project. Patients, visitors, and


staff all need to know where they are, what their destination is, and how to get
there and return. A patient's sense of competence is encouraged by making
spaces easy to find, identify, and use without asking for help. Building elements,
color, texture, and pattern should all give cues, as well as artwork and signage

2. Cleanliness and Sanitation


Hospitals must be easy to clean and maintain. This is facilitated by:
• Appropriate, durable finishes for each functional space
• Adequate and appropriately located housekeeping spaces

3. Accessibility
All areas, both inside and out, should comply with:
• The minimum requirements of The National Building Code of the Philippines
(PD 1096) and its existing Rules and Regulations.

The Revised Fire Code of the Philippines (RA 9514) and its existing Rules
and Regulations.

• The BP344 Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) amendments


minimum requirements for accessibility.

4. Controlled Circulation
A hospital is a complex system of interrelated functions requiring constant
movement of people and goods. Much of this circulation should be controlled.
• Outpatients visiting diagnostic and treatment areas should not travel through
inpatient functional areas nor encounter severely ill inpatients

• Typical outpatient routes should be simple and clearly defined

BOGNOT – GARCIA - LINGAT


ANGELES CITY RENAL CARE CENTER
152
A Specialized Tertiary Level Hospital for Kidney

• Visitors should have a simple and direct route to each patient nursing unit
without penetrating other functional areas

• Separate patients and visitors from industrial/logistical areas or floors


• Outflow of trash, recyclables, and soiled materials should be separated from
movement of food and clean supplies, and both should be separated from routes
of patients and visitors

• Transfer of cadavers to and from the morgue should be out of the sight of
patients and visitors

• Dedicated service elevators for deliveries, food and building maintenance


services

5. Aesthetics
Aesthetics is closely related to creating a therapeutic. It is important in
enhancing the hospital's public image and is thus an important marketing tool. A
better environment also contributes to better staff morale and patient care.
Aesthetic considerations include:
• Increased use of natural light, natural materials, and textures
• The Revised Fire Code of the Philippines (RA 9514) and its existing Rules
and Regulations.

• The BP344 Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) amendments


minimum requirements for accessibility.

enhancing the hospital's public image and is thus an important marketing tool. A
better environment also contributes to better staff morale and patient care.
Aesthetic considerations include:
• Increased use of natural light, natural materials, and textures
• Use of artwork
• Attention to proportions, color, scale, and detail
• Bright, open, generously-scaled public spaces
• Homelike and intimate scale in patient rooms, day rooms, consultation rooms,
and offices

• Compatibility of exterior design with its physical surroundings

8. Security and Safety


In addition to the general safety concerns of all buildings, hospitals have
several particular security concerns:
• Protection of hospital property and assets, including drugs
• Protection of patients, including incapacitated patients, and staff
• Safe control of violent or unstable patients

Triple Glazed Windows

Triple glazed
windows are made from three
panes of glass that are separated
by a layer of air or gas and then
sealed. They are designed to
provide a better barrier against
outside temperatures than single
paned windows because the three
layers of glass and the buffer
layer act as insulators. The glass used features a specially-coated surface that re-radiates
heat in cold months and prevents heat from entering during hot weather. Originally
created for extreme climates, triple glazing is now widely used in nearly all locations,
both for new construction and as replacement windows.

DROPPED CURBS

1. Changes in level walkways should be by a dropped curb.


2. Dropped curbs should be provided at pedestrian crossings and at the end of
walkways of a private street or access road.

3. Dropped curbs at crossings have a width corresponding to the width of the


crossing; otherwise, the minimum width is 0.90 m.

4. Dropped curbs shall be ramped towards adjoining curbs with a gradient not
more than 1:12.

5. Dropped curbs shall be sloped towards the road with a maximum cross
gradient of 1:20 to prevent water from collecting at the walkway.
6. The lowest point of a dropped curb should not exceed 25 mm from the road
or gutter.

WALKWAYS AND PASSAGEWAYS

1. Walkways should be kept as level as possible and provided with slip-


resistant material.

2. Whenever and wherever possible, walkways should have a gradient no


more than 1:20 or 5%.

3. Walkways should have a maximum cross gradient of 1:100.


4. Walkways should have a minimum width of 1.20 meters.
5. If possible, gratings should never be located along walkways. When
occurring along walkways, grating openings should have a maximum
dimension of 13 mm x 13 mm and shall not project more than 6.5 mm
above the level of the walkway.

6. Walkways should have a continuing surface without abrupt pitches in angle


or interruptions by cracks or breaks creating edges above 6.50 mm.

7. In lengthy or busy walkways, spaces should be provided at some point


along the route so that a wheelchair may pass another or turn around. These
spaces should have a minimum dimension of 1.50 m and should be spaced
at a maximum distance of 12:00 m between stops. 8. To guide the blind,
walkways should as much as possible follow straightforward routes with
right angle turns.

8. Where planting is provided adjacent to the walkway, regular maintenance


is essential to ensure branches of trees or shrubs do not overhang walkways
or paths, as not only do these present a particular danger to the blind, but
they also reduce the effective footways width available to pedestrians
generally.

9. Walkway headroom should not be less than 2.0 m and preferably higher.
10. Passageways for the disabled should not be obstructed by street furniture,
bollards, sign posts or columns along the defined route, as they can be
hazardous.

HANDRAILS

1. Handrails should be installed at both sides of ramps and stairs and at


the outer edges of dropped curbs. Handrails at dropped curbs should
not be installed beyond the width of any crossing so as not to obstruct
pedestrian flow.

2. Handrails shall be installed at 0.90 m and 0.70 m above steps or


ramps. Handrails for protection at great heights may be installed at
1.0 m to 1.06 m.

3. A 0.30 m long extension of the handrail should be provided at the


start and end of ramps and stairs.

4. Handrails that require full grip should have a dimension of 30 mm


to 50 mm. 5. Handrails attached to walls should have a clearance no
less than 50 mm from the wall. Handrails on ledges should have a
clearance not less than 40 mm.

OPEN SPACES

1. Where open spaces are provided, the blind can become particularly
disoriented. Therefore, it is extremely helpful if any walkway or
paths can be given defined edges either by the use of planters with
dwarf walls, or a grass verge, or similar, which provides a texture
different from the path.
SIGNAGES

1. Directional and informational sign should be located at points


conveniently seen even by a person on a wheelchair and those with visual
impairments;

2. Signs should be kept simple and easy to understand; signages should be


made of contrasting colors and contrasting gray matter to make detection
and reading easy;

BOGNOT – GARCIA - LINGAT


ANGELES CITY RENAL CARE CENTER
179
A Specialized Tertiary Level Hospital for Kidney

3. The international symbol for access should be used to designate routes


and facilities that are accessible;

4. Should a sign protrude into a walkway or route, a minimum headroom


of 2.0 meters should be provided;
5. Signs on walls and doors should be located at a maximum height of 1.60
M. and a minimum height of 1.40 meters. For signage on washroom
doors, see C. Section

8.6.
6. Signage’s labeling public rooms and places should have raised symbols,
letters or numbers with minimum height of 1 mm; braille symbols should
be included in signs indicating public places and safety routes;

CROSSINGS

1. In order to reduce the exposure time to vehicular traffic, all at grade crossing should
1. Be as near perpendicular to the carriageway as possible.

2. Be located at the narrowest, most convenient part of the carriageway.

3. Have central refuges of at least 1.5 m in depth and preferably 2 m,


provided as a midcrossing shelter, where the width of carriageway to be
crossed exceeds 10 m.

2. All crossings should be located close if not contiguous with the


normal pedestrian desire line. 3. Provide tactile blocks in the
immediate vicinity of crossings as an aid to the blind. The tactile
surface has to be sufficiently high enough to be felt through the sole
of the shoe but low enough not to cause pedestrian to trip, or to
effect the mobility of wheelchair users. See details of recommended
pairing slabs below. Note: Tactile strips formed from brushed or
grooved concrete finishes have not been proven successful as they
do not provide sufficient distinction from the normal footway
surface and therefore should not be used.

3. The most beneficial form of crossing as far as any disabled are


concerned is the light controlled crossing having pedestrian phases
and synchronized audible signals and should, wherever possible, be
provided in preference to other types of crossings as determined by
the duly authorized agency.

4. The audible signal used for crossings should be easily


distinguishable from other sounds in the environment to prevent
confusion to the blind. A prolonged sound should be audible to warn
the blind that the lights are about to change. (Design of such a
system shall be developed by the Traffic Engineering Center.)
5. The flashing green period required for the disabled should be
determined on the basis of a walking speed of 0.90 m/sec. rather
than 1.20 m/sec. which is what is normally used. The minimum
period for the steady green (for pedestrians) should not be less than
6 seconds or the crossing distance times 0.90 m/sec., whichever is
the greatest.
