- Content Structure: Examine the arrangement of information and its implications.
- Likely Consequence: Predict potential outcomes or effects based on the content.
- Neglected Aspects: Identify what the content might omit or leave unaddressed.
Building Occupancy Classifications
-
Buildings can be classified into different occupancy groups based on their intended use.
-
PRE refers to Park Structures, Recreation, and Entertainment
-
CUL refers to Cultural
Building Occupancy Classifications: Examples
-
Division I-1 covers assembly buildings with stages and occupant loads greater than 1,000 people. Examples include Assembly buildings with stage and Cultural facilities.
-
Division J-1 covers Agricultural structures and other occupancies not covered in other divisions.
-
Division J-2 covers Planned Unit Development (PUD) and Accessory, Carports. PUDs are land development or redevelopment projects with a comprehensive master plan.
Mixed Occupancy
-
A building with mixed occupancy must adhere to the most stringent requirements for any of its occupancies.
-
Exception: One-story buildings with multiple occupancies can adhere to the requirements of each specific occupancy.
-
Exception: Minor accessory uses occupying less than 10% of a floor or building are governed by the primary use of the building.
-
One-hour fire resistive occupancy separation is required between different occupancies.
Building Location Requirements
- Buildings must have direct access to a public space, yard, or street on at least one side.
- The centerline of an adjoining street or alley is considered an adjacent property line.
- Eaves over windows must be at least 750mm from side and rear property lines.
- Buildings on the same property and court walls are considered to have a property line between them.
Parking Requirements
-
Public recreational buildings (cinemas, auditoria) require 1 car slot and 1 shuttle slot for every 50 square meters of spectator area, and 1 bus parking slot for every 200 spectators.
-
Covered amusement parks require 1 car slot for every 50 square meters of spectator area.
-
Clubhouses require 1 car slot for every 100 square meters of spectator area.
-
Public recreational activity, sports complex, stadia require 1 car slot and 1 shuttle slot for every 50 square meters of spectator area, and 1 bus slot for every 200 spectators.
Parking Requirements: Calculations and Exceptions
-
Fraction of 50% or above counts as a full parking slot.
-
Multi-floor parking garages can serve 20% of the parking requirements of the building within a 200m radius. However, 80% of the parking requirements must be integrated into the building.
-
Offsite parking can be considered part of a project if it's within a permanent parking building and not a vacant lot, not more than 100m away from a residential building or not more than 200m away from commercial or office projects.
-
Traffic generating buildings can be located at major intersections if the distance between ingress/egress and the intersection is at least 50m.
Road Right of Way
-
Minimum Road Right of Way (RROW) provisions vary based on the number of dwelling units in a development.
-
Minimum RROW for Developments with Multiple Dwellings:
- Number of Dwelling Units | Min. Carriageway | Min. Sidewalk
- --- | --- | ---
- 50 | 7.50m | 1.50m
- 25 | 6.00m | 1.50m
Building Setback Requirements: Residential Buildings
-
Minimum Setback Requirements for Residential Buildings are based on the Philippine National Building Code (Table VIII.2) and are measured in meters.
-
YARD | Type of Residential Use/Occupancy | Basic | Maximum | Basic | Maximum | Basic | Maximum | Basic | Maximum | Basic | Maximum* ---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
-
FRONT* | R-1 | 4.50m | 3.00m | 8.00m * | 3.00m | 8.00m * | 4.50m | 6.00m |
-
SIDE* | R-1 | 2.00m | 2.00m ** | 2.00m ** | ** | 2.00m | 2.00m | 3.00m |
-
REAR* | R-1 | 2.00m | 2.00m | 2.00m | 2.00m | 2.00m | 2.00m | 3.00m |
-
Total setback at grade for R-1, R-2, R-3, and R-4: 8.00m
-
Upper floors for R-1, R-2, R-3, and R-4: Minimum 3m setback.

Building Projections
- Projections beyond the exterior wall cannot exceed (1/3) one-third the distance from the fire resistive wall to the property line.
Easements
- Easements are public lands and cannot be used for building constructions.
- Easements wider than 9m may include a roadway or park.
- Pedestrian access can be developed for public use at, above, or below easements.
