“HEAVEN ON EARTH” DESIGN CONCEPT GARDEN OF EDEN
IT IS AN BIBLICAL EARTHLY PARADISE IN THE HEBREW BIBLE KNOWN AS THE OLD TESTAMENT BOOK OF GENESIS. IT IS ALSO CALLED IN GENESIS “ THE GARDEN OF
THE LORD “. THE TERM EDEN PROBABLY IS DERIVED FROM THE AKKADIAN WORD EDINU, BORROWED FROM THE SUMERIAN EDEN, MEANING PLAIN. IT CAN BE
VISUALIZE AS THE PLACE OF NATURE, SIMPLE YET MESMERIZING BEAUTY. THIS APPRECIATION INSPIRES THE ARCHITECTS TO CREATE A HABITAT THAT ASPIRE TO
FEEL LIKE HEAVEN ON EARTH.
 THE SITE IS KNOWN FOR HAVING IMPERMEABLE SOIL AT THE LOW LYING AREA. IT IS MOST LIKELY
PRONE TO FLOODING AND WATER DRAIN ISSUES. KNOWING THAT IT IS LOCATED IN AN
INDEPENDENT COMPONENT CITY (ICC) WHERE THE SITE IS AT A BUSY CITY SURROUNDED BY
COMMERCIAL FACILITIES, LIGHT INDUSTRIAL ZONE, PROVINCIAL PARK/ PROVINCIAL CAPITOL AND
CITY PUBLIC MARKET.

INDEPENDENT CITY

Independent component cities (ICC): These kinds of communities have laws that

expressly forbid people from voting ballots for provincial authorities. All five of

them—Cotabato, Dagupan, Naga (Camarines Sur), Ormoc, and Santiago—are

regarded as separate from the province in which they are physically situated.

Although provinces and independent cities are arranged into administrative

regions under the national government, these districts are not independently

administered with their own elected governments.

There are 38 independent cities in the Philippines, all of which are classified as either

"Highly urbanized" or "Independent component" cities. A city classified as such:

● does not have its Sangguniang Panlungsod legislation subject to review by any

province's Sangguniang Panlalawigan;

● does not share tax revenue with any province; and

● directly supervised by the President of the Philippines through the city

government (given that the provincial government no longer exercises

supervision over city officials), as stated in Section 29 of the Local Government

Code.

FACTS:

Currently, there are only four independent cities in two classes that can still participate

in the election of provincial officials (governor, vice governor, and Sangguniang

Panlalawigan members):

● Cities declared highly urbanized between 1987 and 1992, whose charters (as

amended) explicitly permitted residents to both vote and run for elective positions

in the provincial government, and therefore allowed by Section 452-c of the Local

Government Code to maintain these rights: Lucena (Quezon), Mandaue (Cebu);

● Independent component cities whose charters (as amended) only explicitly

allow residents to run for provincial offices: Dagupan (Pangasinan) and Naga

(Camarines Sur)

Registered voters of the cities of Cotabato, Ormoc, Santiago, as well as all other highly

urbanized cities, including those to be converted or created in the future, cannot

participate in provincial elections. In addition to the eligibility of some independent cities

to vote in provincial elections, a few other situations become sources of confusion

regarding the complete autonomy of independent cities from provinces:

● Some independent cities still serve as the seat of government for the province in

which they are geographically located: Bacolod (Negros Occidental), Cagayan de

as provincial government buildings and offices, may also provide the government

of the independent city with an annual budget (determined by the province at its

discretion) to aid in relieving incidental costs incurred by the city such as road

maintenance due to increased vehicular traffic in the vicinity of the provincial

government complex.

● Some independent cities are still grouped with their former provinces for the

purposes of representation in Congress. While 24 independent cities have their

own representative(s) in Congress, some remain part of the congressional

representation of the province to which they formerly belonged: Butuan, for

example, is still part of the 1st congressional district of Agusan del Norte. In

cases like this, independent cities that do not vote for provincial officials are

excluded from Sangguniang Panlalawigan (provincial council) districts, and the

allotment of SP members is adjusted accordingly by the Commission on

Elections (COMELEC) with proper consideration of population. For example,

Agusan del Norte (being a third income-class province) is entitled to elect eight

members to its Sangguniang Panlalawigan, and belongs to two congressional

districts. The seats of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan are not evenly distributed

(4–4) between the province's first and second congressional districts because its

1st district contains Butuan, an independent city which does not vote for

provincial officials. Rather, the seats are distributed 1–7 to account for the small

population of the province's 1st Sangguniang Panlalawigan district (consisting

only of Las Nieves) and the bulk of the province's population being in the second

district. On the other hand, the city of Lucena, which is eligible to vote for

provincial officials, still forms part of the province of Quezon's 2nd Sangguniang

Panlalawigan district, which is coterminous with the 2nd congressional district of

Quezon.

● General lack of distinction for independent cities, for practical purposes: Many

government agencies, as well as Philippine society in general, still continue to

classify many independent cities outside Metro Manila as part of provinces due to

historical and cultural ties, especially if these cities were once or currently

socio-economic and cultural capitals of the provinces to which they once

belonged. Furthermore, most maps of the Philippines showing provincial

boundaries almost never separate independent cities from the provinces in which

they are geographically located, for cartographic convenience. Despite being

first-level administrative divisions (i.e., on the same level as provinces, as stated

in Section 25 of the LGC),Independent cities are still treated by many to be on

the same level as municipalities and component cities (second-level

administrative divisions) for educational convenience and simplicity.

LIGHT INDUSTRIAL ZONE

These specially designated locations are called “industrial zones”,and their

primary function is to foster manufacturing. Usually situated on the fringes of cities,

these areas are designated for manufacturing, production, and other industrial use,

which is mainly the difference between commercial and industrial zoning. You may also

find warehouses, distribution centers, and other facilities of a similar nature in industrial

zones. People created the emergence of Industrial zones to separate industrial

expansion from residential and commercial areas, mitigating the adverse effects of the

former. Regional, state or federal authorities may have jurisdiction over industrial zones.

Private investors and governmental entities may hold land in these areas.

Unlike heavy industry, which caters primarily to corporations, the light industry

caters to individual consumers by producing a wide variety of modest goods. Light

industry can be housed in smaller buildings in industrial parks, while heavy industry

necessitates sprawling complexes.

Production methods and locations that don’t require costly machinery or production

tools are classified as “light industrial.” Light manufacturing facilities may have toys,

while heavy manufacturing facilities may make an essential component used by the toy

factory itself or create the energy used to run the factory. Light industrial zones are

typically more consumer-focused than heavy industrial zones since they produce goods

for final consumers rather than intermediates for use in other industries.

Light businesses’ raw resources, space, and power are significantly lower.

Because of the lower environmental impact of light industry facilities compared to those

of heavy industry, these establishments are often allowed close to residential areas

under zoning regulations.

If you’re trying to get a feel for what kind of businesses fall under the umbrella term

“light industry,” consider the following light industrial zoning examples.

● Products for Enterprises: Some Commercial Items Fall Under the “Light

Industry” Category. Companies that specialize in producing office furniture are

examples of the light industry. Companies that make office supplies and similar

low-volume goods are in the same boat.

● Consumer Electronics: Also known as home electronics, these are electronic

devices designed for everyday, often personal, usage and can be either analog

or digital. Flat-screen televisions, DVD players, video games, radio-controlled

vehicles, and other amusement devices are all examples of consumer

electronics.

● Consumables: Despite their widespread use in modern households, all

consumer items, including appliances as large as refrigerators, are considered

light manufacturing. Products that fall under the category of “consumer durables”

can go for a long time between replacements.

● Light Construction: Unlike manufacturing, which often involves mass

manufacturing similar things for sale to anybody who wants them, construction is

typically performed on-site for a specific client. The heavy industry refers to

developing large-scale facilities like ports, whereas the light industry refers to

constructing smaller structures like homes.

● Energy Innovation: Solar panel production is an example of a new, innovative

energy sector with the advantage of being a light industry and requiring fewer

resources to get started. Examples include biomass, hydroelectricity, geothermal

energy, solar heating, wind power, thermal energy, and various forms of

contemporary bioenergy.

IMPERMEABLE - SOLUTION FOR SITE AND VICINITY

1. Impermeable soil is soil that does not allow water to easily pass through it. This can

make it difficult for water to drain away from a building foundation, which can lead to

problems such as flooding, erosion, and foundation failure.

2. When building on impermeable soil, it is important to take steps to ensure that water

is properly managed. This may involve installing drainage systems, such as gutters and

downspouts, and grading the soil around the building so that water flows away from it.

3. It is also important to choose the right type of foundation for a building on

impermeable soil. Some types of foundations, such as shallow foundations, are not

suitable for impermeable soil because they are more likely to be damaged by water.

A. Techniques for building on impermeable soil

● Using deep foundations: Deep foundations, such as piles and piers, can be

used to support a building on impermeable soil. Deep foundations are driven into

the ground below the non-permeable layer, which makes them less susceptible

to water damage.

● Using a drainage system: A drainage system can be used to collect and divert

water away from a building foundation. Drainage systems typically consist of

gutters, downspouts, and underground pipes.

● Grading the soil: Grading the soil around a building can help to direct water

away from it. The soil should be graded so that it slopes away from the building

foundation.

● Using a waterproofing membrane: A waterproofing membrane can be used to

prevent water from seeping into a building foundation. Waterproofing membranes

are typically made of asphalt, plastic, or rubber.

● Use native plants: Native plants are typically more adapted to the local climate

and soil conditions than non-native plants. This means that they are less likely to

require watering, which can help to reduce the amount of water that seeps into

the soil.

● Minimize impervious surfaces: Impervious surfaces, such as asphalt and

concrete, prevent water from infiltrating the soil. Try to minimize the amount of

impervious surfaces on your property by using permeable materials whenever

possible.

● Create rain gardens: Rain gardens are areas of the landscape that are

designed to collect and filter rainwater. Rain gardens can help to reduce the

amount of runoff from your property and improve the quality of water that

infiltrates the soil.

NOTE:

The best technique for building on impermeable soil will depend on a number of factors,

including the type of soil, the size and weight of the building, and the local climate. It is

important to consult with a qualified geotechnical engineer to determine the best

technique for your specific project.

B. There are a number of things you can do with the vicinity to prevent flooding.

● Create green spaces: Green spaces, such as lawns, parks, and gardens, help

to absorb rainwater and reduce runoff.

● Plant trees and shrubs: Trees and shrubs have deep roots that help to loosen

the soil and improve drainage.

● Install rain barrels: Rain barrels can be used to collect rainwater from your roof.

This water can then be used to water your lawn or garden, or to wash your car.

● Create a rain garden: A rain garden is a depressed area in the landscape that is

designed to collect and filter rainwater. Rain gardens can help to reduce runoff

and improve the quality of water that infiltrates the soil.

● Clean and maintain drainage systems: Make sure that gutters, downspouts,

and storm drains are clean and free of debris. This will help to ensure that water

can flow freely and does not pool in areas where it could cause flooding.

● Avoid building on floodplains: Floodplains are areas of land that are at risk of

flooding. If possible, avoid building on floodplains. If you must build on a

floodplain, take steps to protect your structure from flooding, such as elevating

the foundation or installing flood barriers.

NOTE:

In addition to these individual measures, you can also work with your community to

develop a comprehensive flood prevention plan. This plan may include measures such

as zoning ordinances to restrict development in floodplains, and investments in public

infrastructure such as levees and dams. By taking these steps, you can help to reduce

the risk of flooding in your vicinity area and protect your property and community from

the damage that flooding can cause.

PIER FOUNDATION

● Pier foundations are well-suited to regions with expansive soil because a

structure sitting on a pier foundation is less affected by soil conditions and soil

movement.

● Concrete piers were also constructed to serve the same purpose as masonry

pier foundations.

● The size or the diameter of the concrete pier is comparatively smaller when

compared to the masonry pier due to its high load-bearing capacity.

STORM-WATER MANAGEMENT / DIRECT DRAINAGE

Stormwater is absorbed into the soil, it is filtered and ultimately replenishes

aquifers or flows into streams and rivers. When heavy rainwater hits, ground saturated

by water creates excess moisture that runs across the surface and into storm sewers

and road ditches. This water often carries debris, chemicals, bacteria, eroded soil, and

other pollutants, and carries them into streams, rivers, lakes, or wetlands.

In urban and developed areas, impervious surfaces such as pavement and roofs

prevent precipitation from naturally soaking into the ground. Instead, water runs rapidly

into storm drains, sewer systems and drainage ditches and can cause flooding, erosion,

turbidity (or muddiness), storm and sanitary sewer system overflow, and infrastructure

damage. However, stormwater design and “green infrastructure” capture and reuse

stormwater to maintain or restore natural hydrologies.

RAIN-WATER HARVESTING SYSTEM

A rainwater harvesting system comprises components of various stages -

transporting rainwater through pipes or drains, filtration, and storage in tanks for reuse

or recharge.

Email Address: ceafa@g.batstate-u.edu.ph | Website Address: https://batstate-u.edu.ph/

The common components of a rainwater harvesting system involved in these

stages are illustrated here.

1. Catchments

The catchment of a water harvesting system is the surface which directly

receives the rainfall and provides water to the system. It can be a paved area like a

terrace or courtyard of a building, or an unpaved area like a lawn or open ground. A roof

made of reinforced cement concrete (RCC), galvanized iron or corrugated sheets can

also be used for water harvesting.

2. Coarse mesh

Coarse mesh at the roof to prevent the passage of debris.

3. Gutters

Channels all around the edge of a sloping roof to collect and transport rainwater

to the storage tank. Gutters can be semi-circular or rectangular and could be made

using:

● Locally available material such as plain galvanized iron sheet (20 to 22 gauge),

folded to required shapes.

● Semi-circular gutters of PVC material can be readily prepared by cutting those

pipes into two equal semi-circular channels.

● Bamboo or betel trunks cut vertically in half.

Email Address: ceafa@g.batstate-u.edu.ph | Website Address: https://batstate-u.edu.ph/

The size of the gutter should be according to the flow during the highest intensity

rain. It is advisable to make them 10 to 15 per cent oversize. Gutters need to be

supported so they do not sag or fall off when loaded with water. The way in which

gutters are fixed depends on the construction of the house; it is possible to fix iron or

timber brackets into the walls, but for houses having wider eaves, some method of

attachment to the rafters is necessary.

4. Conduits

Conduits are pipelines or drains that carry rainwater from the catchment or

rooftop area to the harvesting system. Conduits can be of any material like polyvinyl

chloride (PVC) or galvanized iron (GI), materials that are commonly available.

5. First-flushing

A first flush device is a valve that ensures that runoff from the first spell of rain is

flushed out and does not enter the system. This needs to be done since the first spell of

rain carries a relatively larger amount of pollutants from the air and catchment surface.

6. Filter

The filter is used to remove suspended pollutants from rainwater collected over

the roof. A filter unit is a chamber filled with filtering media such as fiber, coarse sand

and gravel layers to remove debris and dirt from water before it enters the storage tank

or recharge structure. Charcoal can be added for additional filtration.

When rainwater is harvested in a large rooftop area, the filtering system should

accommodate the excess flow. A system is designed with three concentric circular

chambers in which the outer chamber is filled with sand, the middle one with coarse

aggregate and the innermost layer with pebbles.

This way the area of filtration is increased for sand, in relation to coarse

aggregate and pebbles. Rainwater reaches the center core and is collected in the sump

where it is treated with a few tablets of chlorine and is made ready for consumption.

This system was designed by R Jeyakumar.

RAIN GARDENS

Rain gardens put plants to work to soak up rainwater and provide habitat for beneficial

wildlife and insects. A mix of native perennials, shrubs, and grasses provide interest for

all seasons in this highly visible location.

NATIVE PLANTS

Plant species is one that has historically occupied an area. These plants are best

adapted to a region’s soil, climate, and ecosystem. Some cope better with drought

conditions while others are better suited for consistently wet soil. Their hardy nature

allows them to create stronger root networks that provide soil stabilization, better

storage for water, and stormwater infiltration.

PLANNING OF BOUTIQUE ECO THEMED HOTEL

A. SITE DEVELOPMENT PLAN

1. PARKING AREA

A Parking Space is a paved or unpaved space for parking in a busy street,

parking lot, or parking garage. Vehicles in a parking space can either be in

parallel parking, angled parking, or perpendicular parking. They are marked so

that each vehicle fits into the designed marked area. Parking space can either be

free or paid for.

Parking lots, open areas designated for vehicle parking, are crucial in

urban planning, accommodating vehicles in commercial, residential, and public

spaces. A well-designed layout maximizes the number of parking spaces while

ensuring easy maneuverability and pedestrian safety.

The 45° Parking Space can accommodate more vehicles compared to

parallel parking and 30° parking. This is made possible by the increase in the

angle of parking. The 45° Parking Space is also easily maneuverable as it does

not require vehicles to make a sharp turn while parking.

2. RECREATIONAL AREA

Recreational areas can provide opportunities for physical activity, sport

and recreation for all ages and abilities, helping to improve general health and

wellbeing of local communities and encouraging more active and healthier

lifestyles.

Well managed and maintained spaces can help to create opportunities to

bring communities together, particularly young and old, through local events and

social gatherings. They can promote a sense of place, be a source of community

pride, and also offer opportunities for people to play an active part in caring for

the local environment.

The quality of civic spaces undoubtedly helps define the identity of towns

and cities, which can enhance their attraction for living, working, investment and

tourism.

3. GARDEN

A garden is a planned space, usually outdoors, set aside for the

cultivation, display, and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature. The single

feature identifying even the wildest wild garden is control. The garden can

incorporate both natural and artificial materials.

long-lasting and easy to maintain. Wood is

stronger and less brittle than most building

materials. Finishing products make wood

even stronger by creating a waterproof seal,

along with enhancing the surface's aesthetics

and touchability. Wood panel systems add

beauty and sophistication to an indoor space.

Wood panels dramatically improve a

building’s aesthetic and acoustic properties while outperforming other material options

on price, sustainability, and air quality. Wood panels are quite durable and can last for a

good amount of time based on the material, craftsmanship, and care provided to the

panels.

brown oxidation coating, preventing deeper penetration and eliminating the need for

costly maintenance and painting over time.

a reusable wall mold or form which is then

cured in a controlled environment,

transported to the construction site and lifted

into place. The main function of the precast

walls is to speed up the construction process.
