Description of Representative Projects

Structural Engineering Design for the Divine Mercy Shrine (Mindanao)

Palafox and Associates undertook planning of the proposed site of the Divine Mercy Shrine and other facilities in El Salvador, Misamis Oriental, which is intended to be a new pilgrimage site in northern Mindanao. Initiated and managed by the Divine Mercy Foundation, special points of interest include seminar and retreat facilities, a field altar, Stations of the Cross, and several gardens dedicated to Our Lady. The centerpiece of the development is the 50-foot Divine Mercy Statue, for which the structural expertise of AMH was engaged. The statue will house a healing chapel with a dipping pool at its pedestal and a chapel in its heart with the exposed Holy Eucharist. Construction is ongoing.

Structural Assessment and Retrofit Design for the Army & Navy Club Project

AMH was engaged by the Oceanville Hotel & Spa Corporation (OHSC) to undertake the sampling, testing, structural analysis and design of the Army & Navy Club located in T.M. Kalaw Ext. in the City of Manila. Built in the 1910's and rebuilt after the war in the 1940's, it is the intention of OHSC to assess the feasibility of retaining the structural framing of the 3-storey, 6000 m2 structure leading towards the re-development of this historical facility. AMH undertook a full range of tests/surveys, including concrete coring, ferroscanning, rebound hammer, carbonation, radiography, crack and geotechnical outputs of which served as inputs to the STAAD3Ž finite element model in the preparation of a retrofit design.

Structural Assessment and Retrofit Design for the AFPSLAI Reliance Center Project

AMH is currently engaged by the AFP Savings and Loans Association, Inc (AFPSLAI) for the structural assessment and possible retrofit design of its existing office buildings located at the Reliance Center along C5. Concrete, steel and the underlying soil of the six-storey structures shall be sampled, tested as inputs to a structural model, which will determine conformance of the buildings to current codes. If necessary, the required retrofit schemes shall be drawn up for implementation by a qualified contractor.

Design Review & Construction Management for the LSPI Production Areas 1 & 2

AMH was engaged by Line Seiki Phils, Inc. (LSPI), designer and manufacturer of precision made counting machines, in connection with the planning and construction of its proposed new production areas. Located inside the Cavite Export Processing Zone (CEPZ), the project consists of a 1500m2 structure inside its existing compound. AMH undertook the design review of this design-build project, prepared the guaranteed maximum price (GMP) contract and served as construction managers for the project. Construction was completed in March 2007.
