In the end, why do you want to conduct this
study?
First is the demand of having a
multi-purpose building in the
town of Solano. Second is on
how to effectively build a multi
purpose building for the
community. Furthermore, the
importance of such buildings
cater to the needs of everyone.
The increasing population,
climate change, and current
situation such as pandemic are
the reasons why this study is
relevant to be conducted. This
research will give a point of
view for every Solanoans on
the probable services that a
multi-purpose building can
provide for everyone.
