(BRIEFLY DISCUSS WHAT INCLUDES IN CHAPTER 1)

/NEXT SLIDES/
THE PROJECT
The project refers to the slope stabilization at a residential lot along Transcentral Highway in
Sitio Garaje, Barangay Busay, Cebu City. Known for being a landslide prone area, Region VII or Central
Visayas has been reported with several landslide cases for the past years and recently in 2017, continuous
rainfall triggered a landslide in Barangay Busay, burying vehicles and roadways but no fatalities.
The project provides a slope stabilization design to support the structure and prevent imminent
landslide incidents. The designers would like to introduce their proposed plans using engineering
applications, and different code and standard specifications

PROJECT LOCATION
The project is located at Transcentral Highway, Sitio Garaje, Barangay Busay, Cebu City. The area is
located at 10°22'16.7"N latitude and 123°52'30.0"E longitude, and is the only access to the two city’s
tourist attractions, the Temple of Leah and the Mountainview Nature Park.

(INCLUDE THIS IN YOUR EXPLANATION: The location is privately owned by Clarissa Otadoy and
according to a news report from sunstar, she is willing to donate a portion of her land to the government
so that the city and researchers can intervene and help in the rehabilitation of the place.)

PROJECT OBJECTIVES

will combat or mitigate liquefaction to the underlying soil condition of the said location in
accordance to the provisions, relevant codes, and standards.
Specific Objectives
 To design slope stabilization that will combat a possible liquefaction in Sitio
Garaje, Barangay Busay.
 To design an economical and sustainable slope stabilization.
 To evaluate the competitiveness of the given tradeoffs using the identified
constraints, and the governing national provisions, standards, and codes.

THE CLIENT

LIQUEFACTION POTENTIAL
Liquefaction is a phenomenon that happens when there is an excessive ground movement such as
an earthquake. . Based on field surveys conducted by the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and
Seismology (PHIVOLCS) in 2017, Brgy. Busay is not susceptible to liquefaction.
PRESENTATION CONTENTS
(6 LINES PER SLIDE)

SEISMIC DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS


Using the PHILVOCS FaultFinder mobile application, Brgy. Busay is 2km away from the
nearest active fault, the Central Cebu Fault. As per the news reports from 2019, Central Visayas
experienced earthquakes with magnitude of less than 6.5.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
 Public Health - The design aims to provide preparedness in which people can be healthy
while foreseeing the entire population’s needs and safety as well.
 Global - The design has a purpose to affect and communicate with similar studies all
over the world as the demand in soil improvement, slope stabilization, and landslide
mitigation is increasing.
PRESENTATION CONTENTS
(6 LINES PER SLIDE)

 Social - Engineering will best carry out its social purpose through involvement in the
formulation of the response to a social need, rather than just being called to provide a
quick technological fix with plans and procedures provided.
 Cultural - The design addresses cultural diversity by bringing the designers, clients, and
workers to function as one, together.
 Welfare - Welfare can be explained in a way that by stabilizing the slope in that area,
majority of the public will believe that their safety has strengthened, their concern in
landslide is no longer alarming, and tourists can reach the attractions efficiently.

STANDARDS

/NEXT SLIDES/
DESIGN CONSTRAINTS
(DISCUSS BRIEFLY WHAT IS DESIGN CONSTRAINTS AND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE)

QUANTITATIVE CONSTRAINTS
1. Economical - Due to the susceptibility when it comes to earthquake intensity scale and
earthquake-induced landslide potential, the designers will identify and choose possible
alternatives to strengthen the soil and stabilized the slope in accordance to the codes and
design standards while considering the cost of the method.
2. Constructability - The aim of this constraint is to identify the appropriate technique that
can finish the project in the shortest possible period of time without exceeding the
amount money allocated for the construction.
3. Sustainability - To minimize the environmental impact in a moderate earthquake-induce
landslide potential area, proper maintenance is needed to prolong the lifespan of the
project.
4. Environmental - The designers will evaluate each trade-offs using Environmental
Impact Assessment (EIA) during the construction of each trade-offs and choose which
has the best set of results.
5. Risk Assessment - The designers will choose the trade-off with the lowest risk or
severity of outcome during and after the completion of the project using Risk Matrix
Assessment.
Health and Safety - the designers will analyze the safety as well as the health of the
people involved by evaluating the likelihood, consequence, result, and risk of each
scenario during and after the completion of the project.

QUALITATIVE CONSTRAINTS
1. Social - The project is bounded by what is imposed or desired by the local residents in
the area. It is in best interest to stop or minimize the effects when the soil erosion occurs
through slope stabilization.
2. Availability - The project can only be implemented under the availability of the budget
from the local government of Cebu City and the client’s specifications.
PRESENTATION CONTENTS
(6 LINES PER SLIDE)

3. Political - The slope stabilization design will help the local government to keep Busay’s
tourist attractions available to the public and increase the city’s economic status.

TRADE-OFFS
(WHAT IS TRADE-OFFS?)

GEOTECHNICAL TRADE-OFFS
(BRIEFLY EXPLAIN WHAT IS TERRACING)
Terracing reduces the amount and velocity of water moving across the soil surface which will
help to lessen the impact on structure/s (such as reinforcement walls) constructed at the toe of the slope.

BENCH TERRACING
Bench terracing is a method to convert a steep slope into a series of level steps or benching by
cutting and filling to produce a series of level steps or benches. This method reduces the slope by twenty
(20) to thirty (30) percent and the runoff water is lessened as well since the water infiltrates the soil more
and the water goes down the slope slower.

ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES

FANYA JUU TERRACING


Fanya juu terraces are made by digging the trenches along the contour lines of terraced slope –
the excavated soil is being thrown uphill to form an embankment, which may be also strengthened by
grass cover.

STRUCTURAL TRADE-OFFS
(BRIEFLY EXPLAIN WHAT ARE REINFORCEMENT WALLS)
Terracing, if not maintained, can provoke land degradation and thus it has to be combined with
additional soil protection technique. Reinforcement walls combined with terracing, imminent soil
erosion will have lesser impact as it stop the soil from behind without overturning.

GABION WALL
Gabion walls are made up of prefabricated tied steel wire baskets which are filled with selected
rock fragments. Gabions are used to slow the velocity of concentrated runoff or to stabilize slopes with
seepage problems and/or non-cohesive soils.
