CHAPTER 1 THE PROBLEM
A Shelter is universally acknowledge as the second most essential human need after food.
A shelter not only contributes to the development of man physically and mentally but also
A house is a state within which a generation of families expresses its existence and
preserves the history and identities of lineage. Families discover themselves according to their
lifestyle and the dictates of the cultural values of the society to which they belong. The family
This study aims to introduce a solution which aims to provide answer the need on

conditions and affordable financing, these families live with a constant burden of uncertainty,
stress and fear. These are the problem areas to which the researcher needs to find solutions for. It
is essential to be able determining and establish a concise and clear understanding of what the
This study will develop a sustainable development of which increase the economic and
social development of which in turn, will benefit the community. This study shall serve as a
reference material to similar developments and will enhance design of residential building

The Future Researcher/Student. This study will serve as the application of the
architectural knowledge gained in studying the Architecture course and in the involvement to the
planning processes, and as an instrument for the information and the guide for future researches
The Occupant. This study will specify the importance of shelter in human living. This
study will benefit the family that will occupy the building for they will have a better home for a
better living.
This study will focus on identifying the architectural design applicable for the development
of the proposed project in securing and protecting the environment and human health from
negative impacts, deciding what physical development is necessary in providing learning and
entertainment needs of the people considering their safety, and determining the possible strategies
and techniques in building design and construction for the resiliency of the building.
The study will mainly focus on architectural planning, utilities system concepts, building
Definition of Terms
To understand the terms in this study, the following are defined according to their uses in
the study:
environmental impacts of buildings by efficiency and moderation in the use of materials, energy
Green Architecture - is the approach in green design of buildings that minimizes harmful effects
to the environment and human health using eco-friendly materials and construction practices.
CHAPTER II – RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES
This chapter contains the related literature and studies related to the proposed study,
collected to help the researcher in answering the queries set in the statement of the problem.
The National Building Code of the Philippines and its implementing Rules and Regulation
known as P.D. 1096 which provides general design considerations to all amenities taking user as
its basic basis of designing, specifically concerning public use of buildings in this study. It
expresses a framework of minimum standards and requirements especially in the usage of Rules
VII and VIII, which are the Classification and General Requirements of All Buildings by Use or
Occupancy, and Light and Ventilation, respectively. This section regulates and provide control
over the location of buildings, site, design, material’s quality, construction use and maintenance.
The Philippine Green Building Code of 2015 was essential to this study as it seeks to
improve the efficiency of building performance through a framework of acceptable set of standards
that will enhance sound environmental and resource management that will counter the harmful
gases responsible for the adverse effects of climate change, throughout the building’s life-cycle
including efficient use of resources, site selection, planning, design, construction, use, occupancy,
operation and maintenance, without significance increase in cost. It explains the application of the
Green Building Concept and promotes resource management efficiency and site sustainability
while minimizing the negative impact of buildings on human health and the environment. This is
applicable to the aim of the study of creating eco-friendly facilities giving the youth a sense of
2015 by Amany Raghed, Hisham El-Shimy, and Ghada Ragheb. It is an article that contains
excerpts from other related references about green architecture. Green architecture, or green
design, is an approach to building that minimizes harmful effects on human and the environment.
The “green” architect or designer attempts to safeguard air, water, and earth by choosing eco-
friendly building materials and construction practices (Roy, 2008). Green architecture defines an
universal content (Burcu, 2015). It may have many of these characteristics: Ventilation systems
designed for efficient heating and cooling; Energy-efficient lighting and appliances; Water-saving
plumbing fixtures; Landscapes planned to maximize passive solar energy; Minimal harm to the
natural habitat; Alternate power sources such as solar power or wind power; Non-synthetic, non-
toxic materials; Locally-obtained woods and stone; Responsibly-harvested woods; Adaptive reuse
of older buildings; Use of recycled architectural salvage; and Efficient use of space. While most
green buildings do not have all of these features, the highest goal of green architecture is to be
fully sustainable. Green architecture is also known as sustainable development, eco-design, eco-
friendly architecture, earth-friendly architecture, environmental architecture, and natural
architecture. This concept was used in the study to provide eco-friendly facilities.
The Kula house , a residential building built in 2009 . The residential building was
designed for a licensed builder and HIA Greensmart professional wanting an affordable,
practical and comfortable family home that applied green building principles. The Kula house
typifies the traditional ‘longhouse’ design, a climate responsive building type common to the
cultures of the Pacific islands and Southeast Asia. The Kula house is tropical and alluring with
open spaces full of light and fresh breezes. Passive design subtly delivers occupant comfort. The
value of the home for families interested in minimizing running and maintenance costs will
always be relevant. The home does not need air-conditioning and the design and materials
chosen are resilient to tropical weather conditions. Design principles based around traditional
Pacific island ‘longhouses’ will last the test of time in the tropics.
The PHILIPPINES: Designing Defence Against Climate Change by Kara Santos, is an article
that featured different entries of architectural designs, and the judging of entries factored in
effectiveness, and adaptability to the site. The designs focused on the sustainability and the
resiliency from climate change. Different sustainable materials were used in the designs, and it is
applicable to the proposal to have its sustainability, and the construction materials used to
