No full textIn Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science in Civil EngineeringPedestrians are risking their lives for everyday travel. Shifting from private to public vehicles may vary their chance of incidents and payables. This study aims to know the resident's percent of willingness to pay for their safety and its factor while on the road by using the willingness-to-pay contingent method (WTP-CV). To fully
understand its purpose, respondents were of legal age, 18 years old or older. Respondents were divided
into groups: those between the ages of 18 and 30 and those between the ages of 31 and 50, with and without insurance, and public and private commuters. This is to compare if the monetary value varies per group. This study uses ANOVA one-way analysis to compare the means of the group. For age, insurance, and commuter type, the results show significant values of 0.191, 0.641, and 0.536, respectively, which are higher than the
threshold of 0.05. Simply put, there are no significant differences in the responses regardless of
the respondents' ages, insurance status, or mode of transportation (public or private). The same amount is what respondents are willing to spend. As a result, a mean value of 1.463 was presented. The value falls in code 1 (Php 50 to 80) and Code 2 (Php 81 to 100). This indicates that the highest price a pedestrian is willing to pay for security in riding the railway is between Php 50 and Php 100 per travel

A comparative study on sweet potato waste and cassava starch as alternative materials for unfired clay brick
No full textIn Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Science in Civil EngineeringDue to the significant environmental damage caused by the construction, and manufacture of building materials worldwide, this study underlines the necessity to search for substitute materials that will have a minimal negative impact. This study gets motivations from the termite mound to make a material for building a naturally solidified mount structure. The cellulase enzyme, which converts beta-glucose or shorter polysaccharides and oligosaccharides from cellulose, and mucopolysaccharide-rich termite saliva, were the
building blocks of the termite mound. It was discovered that these polysaccharides are source of the soil resilience and sticky characteristics. This research compares two different types of organic material that have the potential to mimic the properties of termite mounds. First, mixture is composed of clay soil and cassava starch when producing unfired clay bricks. The other type is composed of clay soil and sweet potato waste, which is used as a source of polysaccharides in hot paste at proportions of 0%, 1.5%, 3%, 4.5%, and 6%. The
most effective binder among the two types is the 1.5% cassava starch which has a compressive strength of 5.06 MPa

Load bearing bricks utilizing durian pericarp
No full textIn Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Science in Civil EngineeringModern building methods necessitate the invention of energy-efficient alternative building materials that can be employed in construction. One of the most used building materials for masonry construction is brick. As time passes, several mix designs were introduced that associated the original mix design with fibers of different crops. Fibers are can be found in many crops or trees not to mention durian which contains almost 60% of fiber. Creating greener and environmentally friendly buildings is encouraged to reduce waste. Hence, an attempt is put forth to develop bricks utilizing agricultural waste. Utilizing durian is one way to a green and clean environment. The primary purpose of this study is to develop Load Bearing Clay Bricks incorporating durian fiber and focus on the effects on bricks, particularly their compressive strength, water absorption test, and linear shrinkage limit test. The preparation of the bricks design mix was accomplished using a composition of 95 % - (1%, 3%, 5%) plus 5% of sand. In the water absorption test, the untreated bricks performed the best with the least amount of absorption and followed by the bricks that utilized 1% of durian fiber (LBB1) these were the only mixtures that passed the minimum requirement for water absorption which is below 20%. In the linear shrinkage test, all the mixtures had passed the requirement which is below 8%, and that is a good performance. The untreated bricks and the LBB1 had compressive strength values of 7.17mPa and 7.454mPa respectively which is higher than the 3.5mPa recommended by the brick development association. Therefore, the clay bricks can utilize durian fiber up to 1 % for its results to pass the minimum requirements
