 Condominium Design Standards
The following standards shall apply to all condominium projects citywide, including specific plan
areas, which are approved after the effective date of the ordinance codified in this section. This section
provides minimum design and development standards for condominiums which are subject to approval of
a development plan permit in compliance with Chapter 17.42 and which shall be constructed in the
following manner:

     A.      Density. The maximum density of the underlying zoning district may be allowed only with
demonstration that the project meets or exceeds city standards and that superior design elements are
utilized.
     B.      Building Setbacks.
     1.      Structures shall be located on the project property to meet the requirements of the zoning district
for setbacks and distances between buildings except as provided herein. Setback requirements shall be
measured from the subdivision boundaries, common area boundaries and curb face of private streets
whichever is nearest as applicable. Where condominium structures are not located along a street, and are
located behind other structures, or where there are structures back to back, there shall be a minimum fifty-
foot separation between buildings and there shall be an unobstructed, minimum twenty-four foot wide
separation distance between buildings along the street, where it would be necessary to bring a fire truck to
a location within one-hundred sixty-five feet of any portion of the exterior walls of any condominium
structure.
     2.      In calculating the additional setbacks required for building heights above twenty feet, where
there is no property line from which to measure setbacks, the required separation distances between
buildings shall be increased pursuant to Section 17.20.100.
     C.      Site Design.
     1.      There should be an efficient and harmonious grouping of structures and space which encourages
the individuality of separate condominium dwelling units within a unifying design concept.
     2.      The applicant shall utilize site planning techniques and architectural treatments to reduce the
impact of building mass. Use of varied building heights, building articulation, landscaping, walls and
fences, screening and other similar techniques may be employed to achieve the goal of reduction of
building mass impacts.
     3.      All condominium lots shall be situated in such a way that noise impacts will be mitigated.
Dwellings shall be sound attenuated against present and projected noise to mitigate noise impacts on
outdoor living areas and in all habitable rooms.
     4.      Buildings shall be placed in a manner to allow streetscape building diversity. Clusters of
condominiums shall be sited in a manner that respects the natural topography and that avoids excessive
massing. Front setbacks of structures shall be varied by increasing some setbacks to the extent necessary
to create an interesting appearance from the street.
     5.      Private drives serving the clusters of single-family homes shall be curvilinear, either following
the natural contours, or in the event of a flat site, to avoid long straight-aways.
     6.      Condominium structures shall be offset to avoid linear arrangement of homes between clusters
and across streets.
     7.      The project shall establish safe, direct and convenient access to common amenity areas.

1
    
 8.      Private driveways serving four or less dwelling units having no parking within the travelway shall
have a minimum paved width of twenty-four feet.
     D.      Structure Design.
     1.      Building design shall integrate and equitably distribute details on sides of proposed structures
which face private streets, common areas and public rights-of-way as follows:
     a.      Light and shadow achieved through openings, projections, recesses and details;
     b.      Avoidance of large blank façades;
     c.       Roof lines shall vary by use of varying roof structural configurations and slopes.
     2.      Rear building elevations shall incorporate design features consistent with front building
elevations.
     E.      Landscaping.
     1.      Hierarchy of the circulation system shall be reinforced by landscaping. Project plans shall
identify opportunities and techniques for the creation of focal points where appropriate. Such
opportunities may include, but shall not be limited to, use of attractive hardscape elements, specimen
trees, water features or unusual plant groupings.
     2.      The use of special landscape treatments and/or thematic elements shall be used to embellish
distinguishable features of the condominium project.
     3.      The applicant shall enhance entry view corridors. Design treatments which enhance project
entries through the use of raised medians, additional landscaping, landscape theme and location of
recreational amenities may be required.
     4.      It shall be demonstrated that trees will be distributed on slopes, common areas and/or lots and
along private streets so as to interrupt and soften the silhouette of structures visible from outside the
project.
     5.      The natural vegetation and topography should be preserved where such natural features
contribute to the attractiveness of the project and compatibility within the neighborhood or district.
     F.      Compatibility with Surrounding Development.
     1.      The applicant shall design the project to create project edges which are compatible with adjacent
residential communities, which have been previously approved by the city. Similar structure heights,
comparable or more attractive perimeter walls, architectural features and landscaping improvements shall
be designed.
     2.      The design of the condominium structures and overall site plan should be compatible with the
physical characteristics of the site, with buildings adjacent to the site, and with the character of the
neighborhood or district. Design compatibility of buildings includes harmonious building style, form,
size, color, materials and relationship to site topography. A compatible design plan is one which preserves
the existing neighborhood character, facilitates efficient and convenient circulation, is functionally related
to the natural topography, utilizes natural characteristics of the site, and is an asset to the community.
     3.      Due consideration should be given to the impact of condominium development on the
neighborhood or district in which property is located. Development should be designed to minimize view
obstruction.

 Earthquake Loads

Occupancy Category

For the purpose of earthquake-resistant design, each structure shall be placed in one of
the occupancy categories listed in Table 103-1 of the National Structural Code of the Philippines.
NSCP Table 208-1 assigns importance factors, I and I p. In this design we will use the 1.00 as the
value of importance factor for standard occupancy structures.

Site Geology and Soil Characteristics

Each site shall be assigned a soil profile type based on properly substantiated
geotechnical data using the site categorization procedure set forth by Section 208 and Table 208-

2 of NSCP.

31
Where the following soil profile type are define as follows:

For the purpose of this design, a soil type Sc is to be used.

Seismic Zone

The Philippine archipelago is divided into two seismic zones only as shown in figure
208.1 of the National Structural Code of the Philippines. Each structure shall be assigned a
seismic zone factor, Z, in accordance with Table 208-3 of the NSCP. In this design, our seismic
zone is ZONE 4 with a seismic zone factor, Z of 0.40.

32
Seismic Source Type
NSCP table 208-4 defines the types of seismic source. On the other hand, the location
and type of seismic sources to be used for design shall be established based on approved
geological data. In this design, the structure is approximated to be 5km from the Surigao Fault
System as shown in the map. Seismic Source Type A is assumed.

In Seismic Zone 4, each site shall be assigned near-source factors in accordance with
Tables 208-5 and 208-6 on the Seismic Source Type as set forth in Section 208.4.4.2 of the
National Structural Code of the Philippines.

33
 Hence, the close distance to known seismic source is approximately 7.0 km for seismic
source type B as shown, for this purpose the Near-Source Factor Na is 1.20 and Nv is 1.60.

Seismic Design Coefficient

Each structure shall be assigned a seismic coefficient, Ca, in accordance with NSCP Table
208-7 and a seismic coefficient, Cv, in accordance with NSCP Table 208-8. In this design,
seismic coefficient Ca is 0.48 and seismic coefficient Cv is 0.90 .

34
Coefficient R and ΩO
The value for coefficient R and Ωo shall be taken from NSCP table208-11. In this design,
R has 8.5 value and Ωo has 2.8 value as assumed.

35
Structure Period

As per NSCP, the value of T shall be determined by two methods as specified in section
208.5.5.2. For this specific purpose, method A shall be used.
Method A:

hn = 11.4 m (measurement from the foundation top floor level)

Therefore, the Structure Period (T) shall be:
3/4
T = 0.0731 (11.4) = 0.454

Sample Computation (Isolated Footing Design)

For F1:
P (Factored) = 275 kN
P = Pf/1.5 = 183.33 kN
f’c = 27.58 MPa
Fy = 275.79 MPa
Bar Diameter = 12.00 mm
Column Width= 400 mm
SBC = 250 kN/m2
Footing Depth = 1000 mm
Sample Solution:

Area of Footing Required:
0.10 ( P )+ P 0.10 (183.33 )+183.33
= = = 1 m2 = 1000 mm2
SBC 200

Footing Dimension:
= √ Area of Fooring Required = √ 1.00 = 1 m
Therefore Footing Dimension = 1m x 1m

0.138∗27.58 .∗1000
- Footing Thickness must be at least 200 mm (NSCP 2015: 414.3.2.1)
Check for 2-way Shear
Factored Soil Pressure (q) = P/Area of Footing Required
= 183.33/1000 = 0.183 MPa
Factored Shear Force = (q(lf2 – (lc + d)2) )/1000
= (0.183(10002 – (400 + 200)2))/1000 = 117.12 kN

Concrete Shear Strength (γc) = 0.25 √ f ' c = 0.25 √ 27.58 = 1.31

Concrete Shear Resistance = 4(lc + d) * d * γc

= (4(400 + 200) * 200 * 1.31)/1000 = 628.8 kN
Concrete Resistance > Factored Shear Force OK!
Checking Gross Bearing Capacity
Concrete Unit Weight = 23.6 kN/m3

 Soil Unit Weight = 18 kN/m3
Gross Bearing Capacity = (23.6*1*1*0.20) + (20 *(1-0.20)*1*1) + 183.33
= 204.054 kPa
Gross Bearing Capacity < Gross Bearing Capacity OK!

Final Total Thickness of Footing (df) = Assumed Footing Thickness + Clear Cover + Diameter
of Rebar + Diameter of Rebar/2
