SERVICES
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 The space planning, architectural
lay-outing and utilization of spaces within and surrounding a specific building / structure in relation
with the existing natural and/or built environments have to be a well-coordinated effort so that both
the building / structure and the host environment shall act as one. Arising from his concept of
the total environment, the Architect is not merely concerned with the building / structure he
creates but with the grounds and surrounding space as well. He studies the existing
environment in relation to the building / structure and consequently lays out the areas / grounds
immediately surrounding the building / structure.
1.2 Ordinarily, the landscaping layout of
small building projects could be done by the Architect as part of the site development planning
(SDP) effort. However, if the project is large in scale, the Architect must hire other State-regulated
professionals (RLPs) as qualified Specialist Consultants (SCs).
2. SCOPE OF SERVICES
2.1 The Architect, upon designing a
building / structure, complements this with the design of the surroundings that will make the space fit
for a specific mood and for the required activities. He lays out the open spaces in and around the
structure such that they contribute to the totality of the project.
2.2 In order to achieve a well-balanced
design of the environment enveloping a specific building / structure, the Specialist Architect:
2.2.1 conceptualizes the entire site
development plan (SDP) including the generic scope of civil works and the general scope of softscape
and hardscape requirements.

orderly arrangement within a piece of land or property on which vertical structures such as buildings,
monuments and the like, as well as horizontal developments such as rights-of-way (ROWs),
open spaces and activity spaces are to be proposed.
1.2 Planning, as we know it today, started
with physical planning, with Architects performing the lead role. The great cities of the world
have taken shape mainly through the activities of visionary Architects who actively engaged
in physical planning.
1.3 The Architect is concerned not merely
with a building / structure but with its immediate surroundings as well. In planning for a
building, he studies its interrelationship with other structures, the surrounding environment,
and their effect and impact on the neighboring areas.
1.4 If the Architect is commissioned to do
physical plans for specific site, he has to go beyond the study of human behavior and activities and
must undertake an in-depth study of the host site’s economic systems, its laws and

the general quality of the settings for people and their activities, buildings and other natural
and man-made phenomenon.
2.3 The Architect undertakes the site
planning of a project that requires a composite arrangement of several buildings/ structures and their
requisite amenities, facilities, services and utilities within a natural or built setting.
2.4 Should other services be required by
the project, such as environmental studies, feasibility studies, market analysis, access /
movement systems, impact analysis and others, said services should be performed by duly-qualified
professionals with the Architect acting as the Lead Professional of the physical planning
team.
2.5 Depending on the complexity of the
project, the Architect may hire additional Specialist Consultants (SCs) whose expert advice may
be needed to validate certain features of the physical plan. The fee of any additional
SC needed in the project must be paid separately by the Owner/Client.

(CDP) Services are based on the concept of expanded physical planning services to include
other activities necessary for the proper handling of the numerous components considered in the
formulation, implementation and realization of a Master Development Plan (MDP).
Comprehensive Development Planning (CDP) covers the range of all services from primary data
gathering through the formulation of the MDP and the parallel preparation of the environmental
impact assessment / statement (EIA/S).
1.2 While the planning team is
multi-disciplinary, the CDP Services may place heavy emphasis on the non-physical / non-engineering
components of the development plan i.e. financial, economic / market demand / forecast,
administrative-political-institutional-legal, socio-cultural, environmental, and the like. In contrast,
MDP Services puts a premium on the physical planning and engineering components of the
development plan, which are the direct or sequential physical translations of the inputs from
the initial stages of the CDP effort.
1.3 If suitably trained and experienced,
the Architect’s ability to synthesize and organize into a whole (the various information relating to
the user’s needs, perception and expectations, site and climatic conditions, construction
technology, materials, cost and other information) qualifies him to take the lead role in an
undertaking that cuts across various disciplines.
1.4 The Consulting Architect is concerned
with the management and use of land as well as the conservation, preservation and upgrading
of the human environment. Since the Architect, particularly if a separate RLP i.e.
Environmental Planner (EnP) with suitable training and experience in physical and land use
planning, has the social commitment and technical experience as coordinator of several
disciplines, he is qualified to lead the multi-disciplinary team in offering Comprehensive Development
Planning (CDP) Services.
1. SCOPE OF SERVICES
1.1 If the Architect (an RLA) is
separately qualified and suitably experienced as an Environmental Planner, the range of all services offered
by the Architect from data base gathering, to the preparation of environmental impact
assessments/statements (EIA/S), up to the formulation of the Comprehensive Development Plan (CDP),
may include the following components:
1.1.1 Physical Component - land use and
the changes which occur within the physical environment (within the space where such
activities take place), represented mainly by the MDP.
1.1.2 Economic Component - the nation’s
assets and its management.
1.1.3 Socio-Cultural Component - the
people, their living conditions and the seeking of ways to ameliorate it.
1.1.4 Transport Component - road and
transit networks, land-sea-air linkages, the movement of people and goods from one place to
another.
1.1.5 Legal and Administrative Component -
the relationship of adopted development proposals and policies to existing laws.
1.2 Comprehensive Development Planning
(CDP) calls for the detailed study of physical, social, economic and administrative components and
as such requires the expertise and knowledge of Specialist Consultants (SCs).
1.3 When the Consulting Architect is
commissioned to do a Comprehensive Development Planning effort, he performs the following:
1.3.1 identifies existing land use,
resources, social behavior and interaction;
1.3.2 undertakes environmental analysis,
demographic analysis and feasibility studies;
1.3.3 examines existing laws, ordinances,
political/ social constraints;
1.3.4 prepares the conceptual development
plans, policies, implementing strategies to arrive at the desired comprehensive and/or master
planning solution/s.
