- Buying a condominium unit never crossed my mind. too cramp. Besides, ayokong magbayad ng maintenance fee.... and try to experience an earthquake at 16th floor (nasa taiwan ako noon, when earthquake hit in 1999).

In relation to the post above, what are the common condo terms for natural calamities? Like earthquake or fire?

I believe most condo units have a 50 yrs contract right? That after that time, developers can demolish the condo units (standard lifetime of buildings), and build a new one. They'll either pay you or reserve you a condo slot sa gagawing condo unit?

For those na nakapagpatayo na, magkano po kaya patambak at pabakod ng 200sqm na lot?

200m2 x 500mm height ng tambak = 100 cu.m. plus soil compaction

per cu.m. cost of backfill with compaction about 600 to 800 pesos

salamat bauer, at least I have an idea. baka mas mura magpatayo ng bahay kesa bumili ng gawa na.

say 5M RFO vs build your own uisng a 200sqm lot?

"5M RFO vs build your own using a 200sqm lot?"
yan ang condition, tapos same house specifications, same month/year at same area/location ipagagawa yung bahay?

konti lang alam ko jan pero for sure madami kasing factors na dapat iconsider.

standard ba yang 500mm na tambak?
P600-P800 ngayon... naalala mo pa magkano yan mga 5-15 yrs ago (kung malaki pinagbago)?
salamat Sir

Baka d ko lang masearch nagerror search function on my end

hindi po ito standard. kailangan po ng soil analysis (to determine compaction calculation), at soil elevation ng existing roads and drainage/sewage line.

ang increase in cost ng tambak at compaction ay dependent sa labor cost at equipment cost mostly. marami naman kasing lupa (lowest quality is free panambak kasi kadalasan maraming mix na basura). highest quality of soil contains 50% rocks.

talagang mas mura magpagawa kaso stressful lalo na kung walang contractor.

Geodetic engineer po ba dapat lagi gagawa ng ganyang analysis?
SOP ba yang soil analysis pag gumagawa ng bahay?

very interesting, thanks Sir.

Yung soil analysis po ay dipende sa location at ipapatayong structure.
Kung single ~ two storey house at hindi naman reclaimed yung lot area, magagastusan lang po kayo.

Thank you sa insight Sir!

Maganda raw mag-apply ng housing loan ngayon kasi mababa ang interest rate.

kahit 2-storey ang bahay, minsan kailangan talaga nag soil analysis. kasi may kakilala ako, yung bahay niya bumabagsak ang lupa so yung mga tiles nya nasira kasama bakod. later on, it was determined that the subdivision is dati palang 'asinan'.

so in the case above, kahit 2-storey or single storey, kailangan ng soil analysis.

ferrariEverest · « **Reply #178 on:** Aug 05, 2012, 08:49 PM »

^ make sense.
soil composition ang basehan/mas importante kaysa taas ng bahay.

minsan kasi, may bungalow lang na bahay pero ang taas ng pinaglalagyan.

^please be not confused with soil composition / investigation (determined through soil analysis in laboratory by soil/civil engineer) and topographic survey (determined by survey by geodetic engineer).

we usually need soil investigation to determine the strength of soil (usually necessary for two or more storey / seldom for single storey). pag malambot ang lupa, kailangan ng engineer na maglagay ng additional na tie-beams at lakihan ng konti ang footing para ma eliminate ang pag-lubog (gradually) ng bahay.

topographic survey naman if we want to make sure that ground floor level is higher than the road level. but this can be done manually also kung malapit lang naman bahay mo sa road.
