CODES AND REGULATIONS
Other Remedies
CODE – is a set of rules and specifications for
the correct methods and materials used in a
certain product, building or process.
- The main purpose of codes is to
protect the public by setting up the
minimum acceptable level of safety
for buildings, products, and processes.
Technical standard is an established norm or
requirement. It is usually a formal document
that establishes uniform engineer technical
criteria, methods, processes, and practices.
Standards allow for interchangeability of parts,
system interoperability, and they ensure
quality, reliability, and safety.

Its History, Current State, and Future
(OVERVIEW)
From the first known written building
code in 1758 BC to the national building codes
currently implemented in various countries
globally, building codes have evolved as
growing demands in the building industry
arise. Nonetheless, all codes, including the
National Building Code of the Philippines, have
their objectives remain the same. It is to
assure the wellness and safety of the people
through responsible building design and
construction.
What is the National Building Code of the
Philippines?
Building codes serve as the foundation
guidelines of architects, builders, developers,
and engineers in designing and constructing
for any safe and secure built environment.
Rather than serving as legally binding
regulations, building codes serve as
prototypes for legal jurisdictions to refer to
when composing new statutes.
From 1970 to 1972 – RA 6541 to PD 1096
The Philippines’ thriving urbanization coupled
with population growth made the 1970s a
fluctuating era for both its economic and
physical development. It became a necessity
to enact Republic Act No. 6541, which is an act
Compared to its succeeding versions, Republic
Act 6541 provides a more specified section
discussing the code’s application on a city or
municipal scale. It was applied to all chartered
cities, municipal poblaciónes and districts, and
barrios of urban areas garnering populations
of at least 2,000 people. It also applies to
spaces where each hectare is occupied by 50
or more families.
Developments like new town sites, residential
subdivisions, commercial and residential sites,
schools, housing projects, and other similar
projects were made to abide by the code
regardless of their immediate location’s
population.
Meanwhile, during its succeeding revisions,
the PD 1096 of 1977 and IRR for PD 1096 of
2005 removed those provisions stated above.
Identifying the Distinct Qualities and Changes
Made for Each Version - ENDORSEMENT
In the case of RA 6541, a separate committee
called the Joint Building and Environmental
Planning Research and Standards Commission
to ordain and institute a national building code
of the Philippines. While RA 6541 exists to
regulate the construction industry, it still does
not conform to the country’s developmental
was formed to monitor its implementation
and enforcement.
The 1977 version of PD 1096 gives the Chief
Executive Officer of the Department of Public
Works and Highways, also known as the
Secretary, full authority in overseeing the
implementation of the code. A professional
team of highly qualified architects, engineers,
and technicians must also be formed to assist
the Secretary in fulfilling his duties and
responsibilities.
For PD 1096’s IRR, the Secretary, or the Chief
Executive Officer of the DPWH, is likewise
given full authority of both the administration
and enforcement of the code. Provided, the
officer shall be assisted by the National
Building Code Development Office (NBCDO)
formed through the DPWH Department Order.
Identifying the Distinct Qualities and Changes
Made for Each Version - CONTENT
For its latest version, additional provisions
were given so that each of its chapters will
now have its own corresponding rules and
goals, infrastructure programs, and
technological requirements at that time.

regulations. Permit Forms relevant to its
implementation and enforcement were also
included in the publication. However, in the
entirety of the IRR, Section 302.3 (Application
for Permits) is generally considered the most
significant architectural provision for
architects. This section discusses the signing
and sealing of architectural documents to be
exclusively reserved for registered and
licensed architects. This entry was established
to reflect the stipulations stated in Republic
Act 9266, also known as “The Architecture Act
of 2004.”
With the Fire Code of the Philippines non-
existent until 1977, Republic Act 6541 covered
provisions on Fire and Fire-Resistive Standards
and discussed in Title 2 of the code. While the
present national building code enforced Fire-
Resistive Requirements, they were only
applicable in construction applications, not the
occupancy itself.
Exceptions for Traditional Indigenous Family
Dwellings and Public Buildings
Traditional indigenous family dwellings are
exempted from following the coverage of
Republic Act 6541 to a certain degree. That is
if their construction cost per dwelling does not
reach more than Php 5,000.00 and is

TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION
What is Space Planning?
- Space planning in building design is a crucial
aspect of the architectural and interior design
process that involves organizing and arranging
the various elements within a physical space
to achieve a functional and aesthetically
pleasing environment.
Key aspects of Space Planning
Functionality: Understanding the intended
purpose of each space and ensuring that the
layout supports the activities that will take
place there.
 Needs Assessment: Before starting
the design process, it's important to
understand the specific requirements
and functions of the space. For
example, in a residential design,
considerations may include the
number of bedrooms, bathrooms, and
the preferred layout for the kitchen
and living areas.
 User Interaction: Understanding how
people will use the space is critical.
This involves considering the
relationships between different rooms
or areas to ensure a logical and
efficient flow.
Traffic Flow: Planning the layout to create
logical pathways and circulation within the
space.
 Circulation Patterns: Planning for the
movement of people within a space is
essential. Circulation paths should be
intuitive and free from obstructions.
This is especially important in public
buildings, where large numbers of
people need to navigate efficiently.
Zoning: Dividing the space into different zones
based on function or use.
 Functional Zones: Breaking down a
space into functional zones helps in
organizing different activities. In an
office, for instance, there may be
zones for individual workstations,
meeting rooms, and break areas. Each
zone serves a specific purpose and
contributes to the overall functionality
of the space.
Furniture and Equipment Placement:
Determining the arrangement of furniture,
fixtures, and equipment to maximize comfort,
functionality, and aesthetic appeal.
 Ergonomics: Placing furniture and
equipment in a way that supports
ergonomic principles enhances
comfort and productivity. For example,
in an office setting, the arrangement
of desks and chairs should promote
good posture and reduce the risk of
strain or injury.
 Aesthetics: The arrangement of
furniture and decor elements also
contributes to the visual appeal of the
space. Achieving a balanced and
harmonious composition is important
for creating a pleasant environment.
Spatial Relationships: Analyzing the
relationships between different elements
within a space to create a harmonious and
well-proportioned design.
 Proportion and Scale: Balancing the
size and scale of different elements in
a space is crucial. This includes the
proportions of rooms, the placement
of windows and doors, and the
 relationship between architectural and other legal requirements that vary b. Plastic Limit

Quantity Surveying
Quantity surveying is defined as the
professional practice of managing and
controlling costs throughout the entire life
cycle of a construction project. It involves
planning, estimating, budgeting, delivering,
and maintaining cost-effective work to ensure
successful completion of a project within its
available funds.
Cost Estimates
Cost estimates refer to the process used by
estimators or surveyors to determine the total
amount needed for completing a construction
projects. The estimate may include various
expenses such as labor costs, material costs,
equipment depreciation, overheads etc., Thus
it estimates help in providing an accurate
picture of how much money will be required
for any given project before actual execution
starts.
Quantity surveying and cost estimates are
crucial components in the planning, designing,
and execution of any building project. A
Quantity Surveyor (QS) is a professional who
works on controlling costs related to
construction projects. They estimate and
monitor all expenses, including labor, supplies,
materials, equipment rental costs as well as
indirect costs such as overhead or markup
fees.
In the Philippines when it comes to Quantity
Surveying there are no specific standardized
rules that govern this type of work however
QS uses several international standards such
as RICS(Royal Institution of Chartered
Surveyors), AIQS(Australian Institute of
Quantity Surveyors), ICCS(International
Construction Measurement Standards),
among others to practice internationally
recognized standards for measurement taking
such dimensions, areas and volumes. These
practices ensure that estimates generated will
be accurate and comply with specified
guidelines.
The following steps summarize how Quantity
Surveying works:
1. Site visit - The QS visits the site where the
proposed building will be located to get an
idea about what is required in terms of
designs making note which factors may impact
costings.
2. Taking measurements – In order to prepare
accurate cost estimates measure tons volume
this means: length x breadth x height. The
area measured can vary depending on what Is
being charged or needed by client/contractor.
3. Analysis - After getting complete details
regarding measurements taken from different
portions/partitions/segregation across
different aspects available at a particular time ,
he determines reasonable rates based on
current market prices for each item used
during process implementing those
measurements all into one total bill giving
exact amounts per item both

BUILDING PERMITS
Building Permits are an essential part when it
comes to the entirety of the construction
process for it ensures that the plans and
specifications meet the required standards set
forth by the specific codes. Also, building
permits are necessary for it serve as legal
documents for construction, as well as to
avoid delays and issues related to the project.
However, space planning, specifications and
computations, and quantity surveying and cost
estimates are involved for us to obtain a
building permit. That is why, it is important to
stick with the given standards as specified in
codes and regulations. This is to ensure that
the building official will give consent and the
project will proceed to construction.
