SITE option description

SITE A and site b: LAZARETO, CALAPAN CITY

Most of all the ports from different places stop by at
Calapan City. So transportation is not a problem in the site
since all of the time, there are available transportation.

This is over viewing the Baco- Chico Island and Silonay

Islet.

This is surrounded with the residential and agricultural

areas.

Site A is beside the airport as secondary airport.

However there is some parts this both site has squatter

areas. One of the problems that must solved in
considering the site.

SITE C: PINAMALAYAN

Pinamalayanan It is the soon-to-be city that

offers a land that can expand with the
development of agricultural, commercial and
industrial.

Pinamalayan is now a center of trade and

commercial activities

It said that it is one of the provinces that has

an extremely well positioned in the provincial
growth. One of the advantage is that it is in the
center
of
the
province
that
shows
developments of facilities.
The site is located at the Pinamalayanan,
Oriental Mindoro adjacent to the strong
republic nautical hwy.

In front of it is the agricultural field and also

near at the beach and the municipalities.

Though the weakness of the site is the

transportation to the piers are far from the site.

SITE selection and justification

The chosen site is Site A complies with the requirements of the proposal.

This site is the largest and suitable for the proposal. Having a 21 hectares is
admirable because of potential future developments that can be built.

Large site there are more development like commercial areas and other
accommodations.

Transportation is a benefit with the site since it is beside the calapan airport and a
few meters away is the seaport where majority of the tourists used the seaport in
calapan city.

This is also in the provincial road. Also it is adjacent to the beach seeing the
Silonay Island and Horca Piloto.

Design concept

Experiencing the Mangyans culture, traditions and beliefs

Mangyans were the first inhabitants of Mindoro. At first, they lived in lowlands but then the
Tagalogs and Spanish had arrived in Mindoro, they have to move from inland and into the
mountains to avoid the influence of other settlers. Today, Mangyans have eventually come
down to the lowlands for trading their products to sustain their selves. They also have the
adapted some the lifestyle of the people from lowlands. This is where the concept originates.
The concept was derived from the Mangyans culture, tradition and beliefs. The purpose is to
showcase this from the local and foreign tourists. Main idea is for the local and foreign now
for them to experience and adapt from the Mangyans lifestyle. Also, Mangyans will be one
of the users of this proposal. Since Mangyans are not the same as the others because they
have different lifestyle. This will be shown on the proposal having the diversity of the
lifestyle of different types of mangyan and the other settlers.

Concept development

Architectural concept

The concept derives from different cultures,

traditions and architecture of the Mangyans.
The main concept is the unique works on how
mangyan do baskets, clothes etc through
weaving. Like yakis (as shown in the first
picture). Yakis is a traditional clothing for
women of Mangyan. This is made from a wood
weaving. There is a contest in a festival by
putting the yakis in to the women. At present,
only few are wearing yakis and one of the
reasons is that the Mangyans are also now
wearing the usual shorts and shirts. The
concept will be shown on the proposal as the
second skin and it will be wrapped around the
hotel convention and exhibition center. It will
also reflect from the space evolution. There
are 2 schemes in interpreting the concept for
the approach to the proposal.

FORM EVOLUTION

On the first balloon, it represents the mangyans

talents on weaving. On the 2nd balloon, shows one of the
features in mangyan architecture, the 4 steps stairs
before entering in the main door. On the 3rd balloon also
shows that the openings are only in front of the structure.
This will be shown in the convention and exhibition
center. The gabled roof is also applied in the hotel. On 4th
balloon, it shows the ambahan, the alphabet of Mangyan.
On the 5th balloon is the wood material. One of the
considerations on the mangyan architecture is the wood
material because mangyans doesnt adapt from a

STRUCTURAL CONCEPT

For the construction of the proposal, the structural concept would be post and lintel.
On the first picture this will be the construction method used, the tube system and
shear core concept. It is based on the idea that a building can be designed to resist
lateral loads by designing it as a hollow cantilever perpendicular to the ground. There
will be a shear wall for the core and will be the main support of the building. Grid
pattern will be used for the columns.
Space frame structure will be used in the construction of the roofing. Space frame or
space structure is a truss-like, lightweight rigid structure constructed from
interlocking struts in a geometric pattern.

UTILITY CONCEPT
In general, all of the utilities will be based on the national building code.
This will be the guide for the concept of the construction in building the
proposal. Also a consideration on the aspect of the sustainability. Other
designs will be listed below:
Advanced wood construction that has long fire resistance
Lighting of the structures will depend on the facility. Only enough lighting must
be consumed for the function and aesthetic impact on a particular facility.
Color of the light will be also depend on the facility because psychologically the
color affects the mood of the user and also it affects the environment as a whole
Appropriate amount of lighting must be used inside the structure.
For the mechanical, advanced HVAC systems applied.
Solar panels and wind turbines will be installed for energy saving.
The convention and exhibition halls will have an acoustical treatment depending
on what type of room.

UTILITY CONCEPT

SEWAGE

The form will have a water waste

treatment plant. Sewage treatmentis
the
process
of
removing
contaminantsfrom
wastewater,
including
householdsewageand
runoff(effluents).Since the proposal is
a hotel convention and exhibition
center it needs an STP or Sewage
treatment plan because it requires
more household waste liquid from the
kitchens, showers, baths, sinks, toilets
and so forth that is disposed from the
sewers.

UTILITY CONCEPT

S
Acoustics
Soundproofing is any means of reducing the sound
pressure with respect to a specified sound source
and receptor. There are several basic approaches
to reducing sound: increasing the distance
between source and receiver, using noise barriers
to reflect or absorb the energy of the sound
waves, using damping structures such as sound
baffles, or
using active antinoise sound
generators. Soundproofing is one the important
things to consider especially that the proposal is
hotel convention and exhibition center. The
private room and conferences and exhibit rooms

Lighting, Mechanical, Electricity,

Plumbing
Hotel automation has great benefits when
it comes to energy saving. This will be the
concept for the lighting, mechanical,
electricity and plumbing. This prevents the
waste of energy caused by unnecessary
air-conditioning, lighting, electricity and
excess water consumption. This concept
has a major contribute to the proposals

UTILITY CONCEPT
FIRE PROTECTION

One of the things that must be noted

is fire protection. Doing this is for the
protection of the users especially
that the proposal will occupy
numerous users. One way to apply
active fire protection is using fire
protection system. Fire protection
system is consisting of a water
supply system, providing adequate
pressure and flowrate to a water
distribution piping system, onto
which fire sprinklers are connected.
