THE DEPARTMENT OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY -
PHILIPPINE INSTITUTE OF VOLCANOLOGY AND
SEISMOLOGY (DOST-PHIVOLCS) PUBLISHED A HANDBOOK
THAT CONTAINS SEISMIC HAZARD MAPS CALLED
PHILIPPINE EARTHQUAKE MODEL (PEM) ATLAS. IT WAS
USED TO IDENTIFY THE SITE-SPECIFIC RESPONSE
SPECTRUM TO SIMULATE THE MOST SIMILAR INTENSITY
OF EARTHQUAKES THAT MAY OCCUR IN INVESTIGATING
THE MALATE CHURCH USING LINEAR TIME HISTORY
ANALYSIS. (ROQUE, 2019)

METHODOLOGY
 DATA GATHERING
DATA GATHERING INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING:
• GROUND MOTION RECORDS
• GEOTECHNICAL DATA

A SERIES OF NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTS WILL ALSO BE

CONDUCTED FOR DATA COLLECTION:
• REBOUND HAMMER TESTING
• REBAR SCAN TEST
 SITE VISITATION
PHYSICAL CONDITION CRITERIA FOR GABALDON BUILDING WILL
BE BASED ON CONDITION ASSESSMENT OF STRUCTURES. A
VISUAL INSPECTION REPORT SHALL BE PROVIDED AFTER
OCULAR INSPECTION.
THE OBJECTIVES OF SAID ACTIVITY ARE:
• TO IDENTIFY THE TYPES OF STRUCTURAL DEFECTS PRESENT
(CRACK AND SPALL, CONCRETE DELAMINATION, ETC.)
• TO IDENTIFY ANY SIGNS OF STRUCTURAL DEFORMATION
AND/OR MATERIAL DETERIORATION
 EARTHQUAKE LOAD ANALYSIS ON
GABALDON BUILDING 
TO ESTABLISH THE SEISMIC RESPONSE OF GABALDON
BUILDING, TIME HISTORY ANALYSIS WILL BE USED.
TIME HISTORY ANALYSIS IS A NONLINEAR,
PROCEDURAL ANALYSIS OF A STRUCTURE’S DYNAMIC
RESPONSE DEPENDING ON A LOADING THAT MAY
VARY WITH TIME.
