UAP CCD Logo Design Contest Entries

Entry No. 1

My logo design concept is "Familiarity and Oneness". Using the UAP logo for visual familiarity and adding CCD as the new service offered by the organization. Therefore achieving UAP and CCD combined in singularity and harmony.
Colors were chosen, aside from the concept of familiarity, from its psychological effect. Red for determination and blue for professionalism thus when combined creates high impact to viewers

Entry No. 2

The main concept of my logo proposal is the “stairs”. It symbolizes the stages or levels of development of an individual or an institution. For me as a graduate of Architecture, I know I have to go through some stages like trainings, experiences and massive amount of additional knowledge in order for me to have A higher potential to reach my career’s goal. The letters CCD forms the stairs and the tail of the “D” (2 vertical swoosh in blue and red pointing forward) serves as the “door of success”. The circles behind the CCD represent the light that leads to the stairs serving as a guide in every step. The title Center for Career Development placed above symbolizing the institution paramount goal. The United Architects of the Philippines is in the lower right to symbolize its support to CCD. Basically, I borrowed the colors and style/font of my logo proposal to the current logo of UAP not to pirate the UAP logo but to show the connection between the two. In this way, even just by seeing the logo of CCD without the UAP text, it can still be noticed easily its affiliation to the UAP.

38th UAP National Convention

The future is what we make of the present from what we have learned in the past. In almost four decades of the United Architects of the Philippines (UAP), there is much to be proud of – a rich history, outstanding achievements, and a growing membership with an earnest passion for excellence.

Now in the 21st century, Filipino architects have spread from the pulpy sheets of our blueprints to the glossy sheets of design magazines and beyond. We have evolved from simple practitioners to dynamic designers reflecting the dreams and desires of a progressive society.

It is but fitting to celebrate the UAP’s 38th National Convention with the theme, “Architectural Pride: Landmarks, Leadership, & Legacy.”

Life on the Edge: Living with the Risks of Disasters

The world is changing fast and people can do nothing but adapt. As it continues to pose different disasters on us, we should be well-equipped not just with highly-technological equipment but most especially with knowledge. Everyone is responsible to do their part in spreading proper information regarding disasters and how to deal with them.One important thing that we must consider is disaster risk reduction—we must think of ways on how to prevent huge impacts of such natural disasters; one way, for example, is proper environmental/urban planning.

In line with this, we would like to inform you that the United Architects of the Philippines Student Auxiliary (UAPSA),in cooperation withSLIVERS Magazine, organized the "SPACE 2" nationwide seminar series entitled,"Life on the Edge: Living with the Risks of Disasters" with the guest speaker, Dr. Nathaniel von Einsiedel.

Letter of UAP to Congress

Here's the full text of the letter sent to Congress recently with regards to the pending CE Bills in Congress:

January 18, 2012

THE HONORABLE CONGRESSMAN ANDRES D. SALVACION, JR.

Chairman

Committee on Civil Service and Professional Regulations

15th Congress House of Representatives

Batasan Hills, Quezon City, Metro Manila 1126

Dear Honorable Salvacion:

            Good day and our warmest greetings to the 15th Congress Committee on Civil Service and Professional Regulations (CCCSPR) members.

            This pertains to the concluded 15th CCCSPR Hearing held on September 26, 2011 Monday at 9:30 Room 1 & 2 Ramon V Mitra (RVM) Building. The four (4) House Bills 4071; 2200; 2797 and 4456 were unanimously approved even with the PRC representative wanting to submit a PRC Position Paper. The CCCSPR has been instructed to consolidate the four (4) HBs into one and its format and style will be addressed and subject to revision, editing and approval by the members of the CCCSPR.

           

            It is regarding this matter that the UAP would like to ask, seek and implore your kind, benevolent and just understanding and  good self, to hear our plea on matters of concern  that pertain to the HBs proposed amendments, which are being consolidated and prepared to be submitted for your review and approval. We ask that our concerns be heard and addressed with the goal to Harmonize both RA 544 Civil Engineering (CE) Law support and the RA 9266 Architecture Law as these laws have overlapping, encroaching and conflicting provisions .

            We support the Civil Engineers in their endeavor to update, upgrade, revise and improve the RA 544 with the proposed amendments that are being consolidated. However, with deep contemplative, review, perusal, and extensive discussion and analysis of the HBs proposed amendments, we would like submit Letter of Appeal and Position Paper on the said HB's  to your kind self for your perusal and consideration.

            Attached is our prayer that these matters of concern be incorporated in the Consolidated HB (CHB) to finally address and harmonize the RA 544 CE Law and RA 9266 Architecture Law and the professions that need to be united and working together. A true and lasting Professional cooperation, understanding, acknowledgment, acceptance and respect between the professionals should be promoted, cultivated and nurtured as the Design and Construction Industry needs both to work together to achieve greater heights. 

           

May we seek and ask for an audience with your good self to further explain our concerns and to ask for your kind understanding and support to put in our concerns in the Consolidated House Bill of the approved four (4) HBs 4071; 2200; 2797 and 4456.

            To be clear, let us reiterate that the UAP supports the Civil Engineers in their objectives to update, revise, upgrade and amend the RA 544 CE Law. We should work in harmony as only through a united collective effort can we truly progress in our pursuit of excellence in our chosen fields.

            Only with your kind understanding and support can this be made possible. May we rely on your fairness and just contemplative decision to integrate and add our concerns to the Consolidated House Bill that, after it passes the CCCSPR, will be scheduled and deliberated in its Second Reading at the Congress Plenary Hall.

            More power to you and your kind office, thank you.

Respectfully yours,

ARCH. RAMON S. MENDOZA, FUAP

National President

MOA between UAP and PICE

Year 2003. The UAP and PICE signed a joint resolution supporting the passage of Architecture and Civil Engineering bills delineating their respective scope of practice and strengthening their collaborative efforts in common goals.

The two professional groups through their leaders stressed the need for the immediate passage of their respective bills, which would benefit their hundreds of thousand members nationwide.

In Year 2004, the Architecture Act was passed and signed into law.

In Year 2005, a petition for declaratory relief filed on 3 May 2005 by the PICE and civil engineer Leo Cleto Gamolo to declare null and void Sections 302[3] and [4] of the Revised Implementing Rules and Regulations (“Revised IRR”) of Presidential Decree No. 1096 (the “National Building Code”). The said provisions require that architectural documents submitted in applications for building permits must be prepared, signed and sealed by architects. PICE, et al. claim that the said sections of the Revised IRR, by effectively prohibiting civil engineers from also preparing, signing and sealing architectural documents, are contrary to the National Building Code and the Republic Act No. 544 (the “Civil Engineering Law”), which purportedly gave civil engineers the said right.

Part 1

Part 2

10 TYPES OF PAINT PROBLEMS

10 TYPES OF PAINT PROBLEMS....

1. CHALKING

Chalking is identifiable as a fine chalky powder . Exposure to the sun and rain, excessive chalking can be a paint failure. Chalking is actually the paint pigment released by the paint binders which have been broken down by exposure to the weather. This paint problem is due to:

-Not properly sealing a porous surface before painting.

2. BUBBLING

Bubbling defined as “a globular body of air or gas formed within a liquid: air bubbles rising to a surface.” Bubbling paint is identified by different sized bubbles formed under the paint due to:

- Painting when the concrete is damp causing trapped moisture to expand the paint.

- Interior moisture escaping through the walls due to improper interior ventilation.

- Not properly sealing a porous surface before painting.



3. MILDEW

Mildew is a fungus feeding and growing on the paint and is identifiable by its grey, brown, green or dark black "splotchy" spots. This is due to not priming the surface properly before painting and applying paint on damp surface.

4. SAGGING

Sagging of paint is easily identified as a dripping look to areas of the paint. Its potential cause is that paint surface was not clean or properly prepared at the time of application.

5. CRACKING

Cracking is a failure of paint by splitting of a dry paint. In its early stages, the problem appears as hairline cracks, this is due to natural aging of several layers of based paint and later on turns into flaking of paint.

6. EFFLORESENCE

Effloresence is identifiable by crusty white salt deposits that bubble through the paint from a masonry structure. Salts in the concrete become dissolved with water and then leach to the surface as the water evaporates. This happens when:

- there are cracks in masonry wall;

- Poor paint surface preparation where prior efflorescence was not entirely removed and washed before the surface was repainted.

- Heavy moisture migrating through exterior masonry walls

7. PEELING

Peeling paint is a very common paint problem but can be caused either by moisture or poor adhesion. Peeling due to poor adhesion is characterized by the paint peeling and separating from an earlier paint layer (intercoat peeling) or from the substrate leaving some paint behind. Its potential cause is painting over a surface with poor surface preparation such as being dirty, wet or using inadequate primer.

8. POOR ALKALI RESISTANCE

Surface with poor alkali resistance will eventually lead to color loss and overall deterioration of paint . This is due to applying paint on surface that is not properly cured/ sealed. In other cases, sometimes this is due to structures near salty water. ( The concrete absorbs salt and will pull the moisture out of the air causing the paint to fail.)

9. WRINKLING

Wrinkling is like a rough, crinkled paint surface. Its possible cause are application of paint on contaminated surface such as: dirt, wax , damp.

10. FADING OF COLOR

Fading of color is an excessive lightening of the paint color from its original color. This is due to application of paint to alkaline masonry without primer or sealer.

Determining Allowable Maximum Volume of Building (AMVB)

ALLOWABLE MAXIMUM VOLUME OF BUILDING (AMVB) Above-Grade – The limit of the total volume of space that can be occupied by a proposed building/structure above grade level. the AMVB is an imaginary prism within the fully enclosed areas and courts of a proposed building/structure shall fit.

Quantifying the AMVB. The AMVB shall be primarily determined by the following:

a. Multiply the AMBF (in square meters) for the lot by the applicable BHL (in meters) for the lot to arrive at the initial AMVB (in cubic meters); the result of this step is the imaginary footprint prism;

b. Superimpose the angular plane originating from the center of the RROW on the footprint prism; this shall result in the reduction of the initially computed building volume due to the application of incremental setbacks and of roof configuration dictated by the angular plane; the result of this step is the AMVB;

c. To crosscheck the AMVB against the Allowable Maximum TGFA (separately determined), convert the AMVB into its approximate area equivalent (in sq. meters) by dividing it with the BHL. Before converting the AMVB to its area component, check for the effects of the incremental setbacks on the TGFA for each floor of the proposed building/structure.
