Project No. 1
A Proposed Open Market Residential Prototype Project
A. PROJECT TITLE AND GENERAL DESCRIPTION:

Proposed Open Market Residential Prototype Project consisting of a Two (2.0) -Storey, Single-
Detached House with 77 sq. m. Total Gross Floor Area (TGFA)-cum Site Development Planning Project
for a Cluster of 10 Prototype House and Lots, on a Site with a 10 % Slope.
B. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM:

A multinational development company (the client) has decided that its property 1,934 sq. M. ,
inside (regular lot). With a low density residential Zoning Classification and located in the better parts of
the City of Cavite in Cavite Province, shall be developed to host an open market residential
development. The 10 Prototype Houses shall be exclusively/ semi-upscale structures, 6 of which shall be
on lots each with a 132.0 sq.m. TLA and a 12.0 meter depth. The stated stated 77 sq.m. TGFA of the
prototype houses only refers to the enclosed floor areas above grade (or natural ground) level and
excludes all other floor areas, if these are still be introduced at a later time.
C. PROJECT SITE FEATURES:

The 1,934 sq.m. Grand Total Lot Area (GTLA) making up the entire project site rectangular in
shape and has 32 meter wide frontage facing East property may be reached via a 15 m. wide street(the
main RROW) which a 1.8 m. wide pave-lined sidewalks on each side. The surface of the main RROW
sidewalk closest to the project site shall be considered as elevation 0.0 m. An 8.0 meters wide cluster
street bisects the project site at its long axis and intersects the main RROW at right angle. The project
site uniformly slope at 10% from the west to east, which is also the direction of the cluster street serving
as the direct access to the 10 slots, 5 on each side on the cluster street. The 2 end lots at the
westernmost portion of the project site are approximately 31.45 % wider than the 6 lots at the center of
the development. The corner lots defined by the cluster street and main RROW are 2. 0 wider than 6 lots
at the center of the development.
D. DESIGN OBJECTIVE:
a. To create exclusive / semi-upscale, low - rise, single detached residential building to be sited
on a low density residential Zoning Classification property.
b. To plan and design a closely knit residential cluster that may serve as a model development in
the project host area.
c. To plan the development to maximize profits for the developer; and
d. To design the prototype houses to serve as landmarks in the Project area.
REQUIREMENTS:
A. Draw the Lot Plan indicating the following;
a) RROW
b) Orientation (NSWE)
c) Cluster Street (serving as the direct access to the 10 slots)
d) 10 slots (2 end lots at the western portion, 6 lots at the center of the development & 2 corner
lots that defined by the cluster street and the RROW)
e) Label and indicate the dimensions of the Lot, TLA and Zoning Classification.
f) Provide washed color to each type of slots for easy identification.
