The third year students were tasked with designing a a 55 classroom Senior High School. The site is located in the Talamban campus of the University of San Carlos. Additionally, the site requires the preservation of detention ponds the run along the middle of the site. It is of key importance that the detention ponds must be free of any structure above it. The slop of the site also poses another challenge further reducing the buildable area. Finally the students were asked to consider proposals that would be feasible with a P120M budget. As a result the students were keenly aware of the total floor area of their buildings.
