About this activity

This quiz assesses your understanding of the building design process, minimum design requirements, and compliance with key Philippine standards including the National Building Code (PD 1096), National Structural Code of the Philippines (NSCP 2015), and related referral laws and regulations. Read each practical scenario carefully and answer YES if the described action or condition complies with given standards, or NO if it violates requirements or established design practices. You may refer to basic code provisions for reference, but each question is designed to test your ability to apply regulations to real-world construction situations.

1

Scenario: Wind load design for a standard building uses only the Simplified Procedure without site validation. Is this an allowed method per NSCP 2015?

2

Scenario: Seismic design for a building in Zone 4 uses a zone factor of 0.4. Is this correct?

3

Scenario: For a residential unit, the design allocates 25 sq.m per occupant. Does this meet PD 1096 minimum area requirements?

4

Scenario: CHB walls are anchored to columns using vertical and horizontal dowels. Is this the correct connection method?

5

Scenario: A conference room with 45 occupants is designed with only one main exit. Does this comply with PD 1096 rules?

6

Scenario: A 3-storey building has an allowable soil bearing capacity of 90 kPa at 1.5m depth. The design uses isolated footings adjusted to 2.0m depth. Is this permitted for school buildings?

7

Scenario: A classroom measuring 90 sq.m is planned to hold 55 occupants without providing a second exit. Does this meet PD 1096 exit requirements?

Scenario: A church building is categorized under Special Occupancy Structure (Category III) per NSCP 2015. Is this classification correct?

10

Scenario: A building near the Central Leyte Fault (Seismic Source Type A) uses a Near-Source Factor Na of 1.0 when the fault is only 1.5km away. Is this value correct?

11

Scenario: Live load for a ground-floor school corridor is set at 3.8 kPa based on NSCP 2015. Is this the correct minimum value?

12

Scenario: BP 344 (Accessibility Law) is referenced when designing ramps and accessible entrances for a public office building. Is this the correct law to apply?

13

Scenario: Beam ties are placed 75mm away from the face of the supporting column. Is this within the correct limit?

14

Scenario: The Fire Code of the Philippines (RA 9514) is referenced alongside PD 1096 for building design compliance. Is this required?

15

Scenario: Architectural drawings are prepared at a scale of 1:50 for floor plans. Does this meet the stated minimum scale requirement?

16

Scenario: The design team refers to the Philippine Mechanical Code prepared by PSME for mechanical system design. Is this the correct referral code?

17

Scenario: Dead load calculations include the weight of fixed plumbing fixtures and ceiling finishes. Is this included correctly?

18

Scenario: A proposed 2-storey school building will be designed without conducting soil boring tests. Is this compliant with NSCP 2015 requirements?

19

Scenario: You are designing a building and using PD 1096 as the main legal basis. Is PD 1096 the official National Building Code of the Philippines?

20

Scenario: Reinforcement steel ratio for a concrete column is set at 7% for earthquake resistance. Does this follow NSCP limits?

21

Scenario: Gusset plates are omitted from all truss connection details to save cost. Is this acceptable practice?

22

Scenario: J-bolts for roofing are installed every 5 corrugations on GI sheets. Is this done correctly per good detailing practice?
