GENERAL REQUIREMENTS
1. Temporary Facilities for the Engineers or
Provision of Field Office for the Engineers
(DPWH)
A Temporary Facility is the facilities that is
used for the limited time or purpose only such as
for the construction duration.
A Temporary Facility Plan is a planning
activity of the construction that is developed by a
home office construction team prior to the
commencement of the site work based on the
construction schedule and resources
mobilization plan.
What Temporary Facilities Do You
Need On Construction Sites?
Every construction site will need some
temporary facilities to be provided, even if you are
working on an existing site. Because construction
work is messy and dangerous, you need to
protect the people not involved in the project.
Temporary facilities will often make your site safe
and secure.
Barriers
Whether you are working on a new build, or a
refurbishment, one of the first temporary
measures you will need is barriers. Construction
work is dangerous, and you should only let
authorized people (who have had an induction)
on your site. Site security is necessary on every
construction site for several reasons:
1. To keep people safe
2. To protect materials and equipment
3. To protect members of the public
4. To comply with the law
Site Office
The site office is the hub of the
construction site. Workers sign in and out here.
The team will often get briefed on tasks for the
day, check documents and schedules, and
maybe even get inductions here
Electricity
You may need a temporary electrical
supply on the site for your site office and welfare
facilities, lighting, and equipment
A temporary electrical system might be
necessary before a permanent electrical system
gets installed to supply electricity to various
points across the site.
Water
There are plenty of reasons why you need water
in construction:
1. Drinking
2. Handwashing (and sometimes showers)
3. Toilet facilities
4. Mixing materials
5. Wheel washing and equipment cleaning
6. Making drinks
Welfare Facilities
We've touched upon welfare facilities in
the water section of this post. But, in addition to
water, you need the facilities themselves.
Construction work is pretty grubby at the
best of times. You're often in the dirt, dust or
grime. And if there aren't yet facilities on the site
(or if you can't use existing facilities), temporary
washing facilities will need to be supplied.
Depending on the work, this could be hand
washing facilities or even showers. And don't
forget to provide warm water, soap and towels.
Canteen
Workers need a place to rest and eat
meals. Construction work is physically
demanding, so a decent meal or break can do
wonders for productivity.
Most importantly, your site canteen is a
place for workers to re-fuel and rest, ready for
the next portion of their shift. So make sure
workers can make drinks and prepare food, and
they have a place to sit and eat.
Storage
You're likely to use a lot of tools,
equipment and materials throughout the project.
Secure storage can reduce the risk of trespass,
theft and vandalism, and improve safety and
productivity on site.
Waste Management
Not only will you use a lot of materials,
but you're also probably going to remove plenty
too. Whether for recycling or disposal,
construction projects, especially those involving
demolition and strip outs, generate a lot of
waste.
Access
Every site needs safe access, and often
you will need temporary facilities to provide this -
from safe and stable traffic routes and pedestrian
routes to scaffolding and working platforms for
working at height.
Parking
You might need to provide a location for
parking on site. Consider the areas that vehicles
need to access, like loading zones, waste and
skip places, and parking areas.
2. Provision of Progress Photographs
(DPWH)
Why Construction Site Photo
Documentation is Important
In construction, keeping a project on track
(and your customers happy) is easier said
than done. However, increasing your visibility
into a construction project with construction
site photos can help you make more
informed decisions along the way.
➢ Project photos document what’s happening
on the jobsite.
➢ Photo markup highlights the most critical
project info.
➢ Stay protected against claims
➢ Better alignment between the Project
Manager and the Site Foreman
➢ Improved field reporting
➢
3. PERMITS and CLEARANCES
Nearly everything in our country requires a
permit to establish the legitimacy of a transaction
or the legitimate owner of a piece of property
A building permit is required to begin
development on a specific facility.
The significance of obtaining a building
permit
A building permit is required if you are
going to construct a business or a home. It could
be tedious and make your head spin a little. You
won't be able to establish the legality of your
home without it, so seek a building permit right
away rather than dealing with further issues
associated to building your property.
Other Technicalities of Building Permits
➢ Inspections
➢ Penalties
➢ Exemptions
Steps in securing a building permit
Step 1. Get the requirements checklist
Step 2. Submit the requirements to the Office of
the Building Official.
Step 3. Get your Order of Payment.
Step 4. Pay the building permit fees.
Step 5. Present the Official Receipt to the Office
of the Building Official Releasing Section
Step 6. Claim your building permit.
4. PROJECT BILLBOARD/SIGN BOARD
(DPWH)
Description
Until the project has been accepted by the
implementing agency, billboards with the project's
name, station limits, package number, and names
of the implementing agency and contractor must
always be visible at the project site. The
contractor is responsible for creating as-built
drawings based on approved construction plans.
completed portion, with the contractor working to
shorten the review period
right after construction.
Use and/or Importance
Secretary Singson went on to say that
these project billboards are crucial because they
include details such as the contractor's name,
the project's start date, the contract's end date,
its cost, the consultant's name for projects
receiving foreign assistance, the DPWH
implementing office, and the project's funding
source.
Example
5. Construction Safety and Health Program
The Construction Safety and Health
Program (CSHP) document, which is guided by
the implementing rules and regulations of the
Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) as
well as the Memorandum of Agreement of the
Department of Public Works and Highways, is
one of the important requirements for the
approval of a property owner's building permit
(DPWH). The document ensures the safety and
well-being of all construction workers as well as
the general public who are on or near the
construction site.
CSHP ensures worker and contractor
safety and harmony during the construction or
renovation of projects such as residential,
commercial, offices, and shops. With DOLE
approval, it aids in the prevention of workplace
accidents and injuries by implementing
appropriate programs, activities, systems, and
procedures outlined in the Occupational Safety
and Health (OSH) Standards
SAMPLE APPLICATION FORM
After completing these forms and
documents, you can submit your Construction
Safety and Health Program application to your
local DOLE Regional Office. Applications may
be filed at the Department of Labor and
Employment - NCR if the project is located
within the National Capital Region (NCR).
That's it! Your workers' health and safety
are in good hands with the approval of your
project's CSHP
Can we work without a work safety permit?
➢ A safety permit serves as a safeguard to
protect the person working on the
equipment or performing specific tasks on
it. As a result, having a work permit is
required.
6. Construction of power house/ concrete
underground pipe and extension of three-line
installation of distribution
This work consists of the labor and material
cost. The responsibility of this is to ensure the
installation of the following:
a. Transformer
b. Switching Cubicles
c. Ground grid
The Philippine Electrical Code (PEC)
- is a modified version of the National Electrical
Code. The modifications were made to suit the
local Philippine environment and conversion
into the SI system. This section of the
Philippine Electrical Code makes it clear that
the Philippine Electrical Code is compatible
with international safety standards and
address the fact installations meeting the
requirements of the Philippine Electrical Code
are also in compliance with the fundamental
principles outlined in NEC
The National Electrical Code
- is an adoptable standard for the safe
installation of electrical equipment and wiring,
and establishes the basis for electrical safety
in industrial, commercial, and residential
buildings.
Electrical Installation
A transmission source or power source of
the electricity will run electricity through the meter.
7. SOIL EXPLORATION
What is the importance of Soil?
- The soil and water resources of the earth
support life and civilization.
Soil Exploration
- Is the process of conducting laboratory and
field tests to gather the soil information
required for the proper design and execution
of any project. It enables engineers to produce
soil profiles that display the relationship
between the soil qualities and the
arrangement of the soil layers.
Purpose of Soil Exploration is:
1. To ascertain the fundamental characteristics of
soil, such as compressibility, strength, and
hydrological conditions, which have an impact on
the design and safety of a construction.
2. To establish the scope and characteristics of
the building material.
3. To assess the state of the groundwater.
4. To examine the reasons why current works
have failed.
5. Information that will enable the geotechnical
consultant to recommend the foundation's
permitted load capacity.
Scope of Soil Exploration
- The type and depth of soil exploration depends
on how the investigation's findings will be used in
the long run. For constructions that exert large
loads on the ground, for instance, the goal of soil
exploration is to offer information that will aid in
the selection of suitable foundation types, their
placement, and foundation design.
Why Is Soil Testing Important When Building?
- Soil testing are therefore a necessary step in
obtaining a planning permission for the
construction of a new building. A soil test might
be requested by a structural engineer to find out
the soil's drainage and load-bearing capacities.
Additionally, dangerous chemical or physical
conditions like poisons or pollutants may be
detected by soil tests.
- Rather than a typical soil test, a geotechnical
site investigation must be carried out if planned
construction is outside the AS2870-2011 scope of
coverage. Cost based on the needs of the
project.Guidelines suggested for deciding the
number and disposition of trial pits and
borings as per IS – 1892-1979:
a. One borehole or trial pit at the center
may be adequate for small regions and
less significant buildings.
b. Five boreholes or test pits, one in each
corner and one in the middle, are sufficient
for a small building site that is around 0.4
hectare (4000 m2) in size.
c. For large and significant constructions,
exploration is conducted at significant
sites, in addition to the site's corners, as
recommended by the geotechnical
engineer. Depending on the variance in
subsurface conditions and/or loading, the
distance between borings or test pits may
range from 10 to 30 meters.
d. For very large areas, with settlements of
both industry and habitation:
i. The number of boreholes or trial pits may
be determined using the geological
makeup of the area as a guide.
ii. Cone penetration tests (CPTs) are
carried out by dividing the region into
squares every 50 meters. Examining the
variation in the penetration curves may
help determine the number of boreholes or
trial pits.
iii. Geophysical approaches are utilized as
a guidance when determining the number
and position of trial pits or borings in strata
with gravelly or boulderous strata, where
CPTs may not be feasible.
e. In the case of highway or railroad
projects, investigation is done at intervals
of 150–300 meters along the project's
center line. Depending on the need, this
spacing may be reduced up to 30 m when
the soil qualities are very diverse
throughout the length.
- According to the US Bureau of
Reclamation's (USBR) Earth Manual,
Table 14.1 lists the minimum number of
borings and the distance between them for
various types of structures depending on
whether the soil is uniform or erratic.
- The depth at which the pressures in the
soil brought on by the structure are
significant is where soil exploration must
be done. The depth considered to be
significant is typically the depth where the
vertical tension equals 20% of the stress at
the foundation level. According to
Boussinesq's Theory, the important depth
for various types of footings.

Methods of Soil Exploration
Different methods of soil exploration for study of
soil profiles are:
➢ Open Excavation
➢ Boring Method
Methods of Boring:
1. The simplest way to drill a hole by
hand is with an auger. These can be
utilized for shallower depths, which are
often only 5 meters or so deep. Augers
can be utilized in cohesive and other soft
soils that are above the water table.
2. Sand pumps are appropriate for sandy
soils, while Auger and Shell boring
Augers are suited for stiff or stiff clays as
well as very stiff and hard clays. For deep
digging, cylindrical augers and shells are
employed. For depths of 25m and 50m,
respectively, a mechanical ring or a hand-
operated ring is utilized.
3. With the exception of boulders and
rocks, wash boring is the quickest and
easiest method for drilling holes in all
types of soil. Percussion boring This
method is used to make hole in all
types of soils including boulders and
rocks.
4. Rotary boring (also known as mud
rotary drilling) is a technique for drilling
deeper holes in rocks and soils. Rotary
drilling is done using rotating core barrels
equipped with steel bits with slots or
commercial diamond bits. This technique,
also known as core boring or core drilling,
is used to extract rock cores.
Geographical Methods of Soil Exploration
➢ Electrical resistivity method
➢ Mean resistivity (ohm-cm)
Seismic refraction method
- If the deeper layers have progressively higher
densities, faster speeds, and larger thickness, this
method is particularly quick and reliable for
establishing profiles of distinct strata.
8. Construction specification Mobilization
and Demobilization
Mobilization:
The mobilization of a contractor's human
and physical resources for transfer to a
construction site up until the contract's
conclusion
The Mobilization Team will be organized by
work stream.
➢ Project Management.
➢ Legal.
➢ Planning and permitting.
➢ Technical Team.
What are construction mobilization costs?
- Construction mobilization expenses are
the costs associated with starting a job
before progress payments begin to flow.
The issue with mobilization costs is that,
unless specifically included in the contract,
they may not be explicitly reimbursable
Types of mobilization costs
➢ Administrative mobilization
➢ Mobilization fee
➢ Mobilization percentage
➢ Mobilization advances
➢ Mobilization draws
What does it mean to Demobilize a
Construction Site?
- Demobilization refers to the removal of all
personnel, supplies, materials, trash, temporary
structures, and construction equipment from the
Site by the Contractor, Subcontractors, and Sub-
Subcontractors.
What is the cost of Mobilization and
Demobilization?
-Demobilization as well as mobilization. a
significant upfront cost for any project.
Meridian manages its mobilization and
demobilization strategies with care. We find
the qualified labor force and make sure that
the necessary plant, equipment, and
materials are on location to begin the job and
are removed when it is finished.

Payment
After the contractor presents paid
invoices or proof of direct costs indicating
particular mobilization and demobilization
costs and supporting evidence of the charges
of suppliers, subcontractors, and others,
payment will be issued as the work
progresses

What is a construction Bond?
A construction Bond provides protection to the client against the non-performance of a
contractor

There are three parties involved in a construction Bond

• The client
• The contractor
• A bondsman/Surety

The bondsman or Surety takes responsibility for the contractor’s obligations by signing a bond
the bondsman is then obliged to pay the client upon certain criteria being met

Construction bonds can be split into two categories:

- On-demand bonds (I.E primary obligations)

With on-demand bonds the bondsman pays out an amount set out in the bond immediately
without needing to establish the contractor's liability unless the demand is fraudulent.

- Conditional bonds (I.E secondary obligations)

Conditional bonds are only paid out provided certain contractual conditions have been
fulfilled usually in solvency or breach of contract by a contractor.

Different types of bonds

• Performance bond - Performance bond can be seen as an insurance protecting the client
against the contractor failing to fulfill contract obligations usually set at 10 percent this type
of bond ensures the client has the funds to overcome the issues caused by non-performance
of the contractor for example the cost to find a new contractor to complete the works.

• Tender Bond or Bid Bond - Tender bond or bid Bond the purpose of a tender bond is to
discourage the bidder from abusing the bidding process the tender bond is submitted with a
tender and ensures the contractor’s commitment to start a project the downside to this bond
is it may discourage smaller companies from tendering for the works.

• Retention Bond - Retention Bond is a percentage usually five percent of the amount
certified due to a Contractor on an interim certificate that is retained by the client the
purpose is to create a financial incentive for the contractor to complete the work
successfully and provides us a protection to the project stakeholders in the event of
problems I.E the retained money can be used as an insulation for that risk.

• Off-site materials Bond - Off-site material Bond this is like the advance payment Bond
sometimes the contractor pays for materials before it is delivered to site this bond is used to
protect the program against delays.

• Advanced payment Bond - Advance payment Bond Advanced payment bond is used when
Advance payment is made for construction goods or services sometimes in construction
Advance payment is made When contractors incur significant startup costs for providing
Goods or service this Bond protects the employer in case something goes wrong with the
execution of service or Goods received.

• Defects liability Bond - Defects liability Bond this bond is tied to the defect liability period
usually lasting 12months after practical completion this Bond ensures the contractor
provides a service correcting any defects apparent after completion of works.

• Adjudication Bond - Adjudication Bond adjudication is the process for Swift dispute
resolution adjudication bonds are contractual bonds which require the bondsman to pay out
based on an adjudicator's decision.
