The underlying soft natural sediments are marine clayey sits and highly plastic
clays which typically comprise the (geologically) recent alluvial deposits in the bay area.
Alluvium are found at depths of at least 10 meters, and is undertaken by very stiff or hard
sit/clay strata or weathered sedimentary rocks.
CONTAINMENT
The Asiaworld City is an island, connected to the main thoroughfare (Roxas
Boulevard) by bridge and to the R-1. Expressway by a cause way. It is fully contained
by concrete piles and panels along the northern, southern and eastern portions, and by
rocks bulkhead installed for protection against strong waves along the western section.
The concrete wall was constructed by driving pre-east concrete II-piles at equal
distance, inserting concrete panels to serve as the wall, and installing along the exterior of
the wall Class III rocks to balance the pressure exerted by the soil towards the wall. A
concrete pile cap was then installed on top of the II-piles and panels to connect the piles
together to form one complete wall.
In the western portion of the island, fronting the bay, a rockmound bulkhead was
used. Here, Class III rocks were installed to serve as the one with the bottom elevation
reaching down the original seabed. Class I rocks, weighing a minimum of 1.5 tons each,
were then placed on top of the core, sloping towards the bay as wave deflectors to reduce
the intensity of wave action upon hitting the rockmound.
SOIL FOUNDATION AND STABILIZATION
Manila has had a long history of reclamation works also along the bay area.
Among the notable reclaimed areas in Manila are potions of Roxas Boulevard and of
Luneta, the American Embassy grounds, and the Cultural Venter Complex. Experience in
these areas prove that with proper construction, long term stability of the ground is
assured and high-rise structures can be safely built after applying a suitable modern
technique of ground improvement and/or using bored pile foundations.
Contrary to speculations about the nature of reclaimed areas, the soil of The
Asiaworld City has an exceptional load bearing capacity and strength. More so because
the reclamation of the area began in 1977 or eleven years ago, allowing more than the
six-year period required for water displacement and soil consolidation.
Initial soil study was conducted by Soil Mechanics Ltd., a British firm. Said
study was then evaluated by Louk Kok & Partners from the Netherlands, consultants and
world-renowned soil consolidation experts.
AND USE PLAN
The Asiaworld City is planned as a self-contained community in keeping with the
highly-quality than design envisioned for the entire reclamation area. The intention is to
tap to Quirino Avenue main water pipe lines. The building is equipped with a fully
automatic sprinkler system and fire alarm system complete with smoke detectors.
ELECTRICAL
We have a stand-by generator with a capacity 750 kva, enough to operate the
elevators, pumps lighting on common areas, partial lighting and outlets in the units,
except for aircon units., We have provided matv, lighting arrester, video entry phone,
paging system, telephone lines and intercom. Also, provisions for satellite disc and sky
cable. For the metering, we have adapted the multi-metering system.
ARCHITECTURAL FINISH
We used PVC for all windows and curtain walls, manufactured by Nan Ya Plastics
from Taiwan. Glass and glazing of windows are all tempered designed to withstand wind
load up to 100 psf.
We have also provided, and now completed the 2 million gallons water reservoir
located at Manila East to supply the condominiums requirement, with a 350 kva
generator in case of power failure.
For further technical inquiries, we shall attend to what later in our question and
answer panel.
RECLAMATION
The entire Marina Complex is a 173-hectare, bounded on the eastern side by the
seaside channel, on southern side by Paraaque channel, and Manila Bay at the back
portion. Upon the completion of the proposed reclamation of the inland Channel located
between Aguinaldo Boulevard, formerly Coastal Road and the existing Marina Complex,
the total area will be 184.3 hectare.
Marina property was reclaimed 20 years ago by CDCP. We acquired this property
in the last quarter of 1988. There then, we started the planning, and consequently, the
construction proper.
Marina Complex is divided into 3 segments, from Coastal Road to Luzon Avenue
is the commercial block with a total area of 34.3 hectares. Second, the housing area
known as Marina East and South from Luzon Avenue to Atlantic Avenue with a total area
of 36 hectares, lastly, the residential condominiums from Atlantic Avenue to Manila Bay
with a total area of 64 hectares. Rest of remaining areas goes to the road network.
CLEVELAND TOWER
The Ground Floor:
The main lobby is located at the ground floor. Adopting contemporary
constructional methods, post modernism is conceptualized. Round modern columns with
slight mutation were provided to do away with visual dullness. The provision of a high
ceiling did not only effect roominess, but permitted natural ventilation as well.
Blending architecture with nature, such was so designed, that from the lobbys
cozy lounge, we can have a view of the spacious lanai fronting a waterfall emanating
from the landscaped gardens. Thus, adding coolness to the refreshing ambiance in a
hornely atmosphere. Completing the lobby are the hanging exotic chandeliers, elegantly
crafted furnitures and finely treated walls and ceiling.
The ground floor also houses the function room, swimming pools, play area,
nursery, gymnasium and separate saunas for men and women with adjoining bathrooms
and toilets. To the left of the main entrance is the reception area along with the offices,
Mailboxes were also provided. The provision of guard houses on this floor will maintain
order and security inside the building.
The Residential Units:
Rising from the 2nd floor is the typical one level, 3 bedroom (with den) unit floor,
containing four apartments, reaching up to the 28th floor.
Introduction to each of the units is a foyer. The main feature is the living-dining
area. Then the bedrooms along the perimeter of the building. The functional area like
the kitchen and laundry, including the maids room and toilet are so located not being
obtrusive along the main core.
The balcony is accessible to both the den and the living room, hence, the use of
half glass railing so as not to neglect its view from such areas.
The Penthouse:
At the 29th and 30th floor is the penthouse. A two-level units each which consist of
spacious living area, a dining room, a den, three bedrooms, and one masters bedroom,
and of course the functional area like the kitchen and utility room. The upper level is
provided with a cantilever stair hallway overlooking the foyer and living room below. It
has a kitchenette included and a small balcony adjacent to one of the three bedrooms on
the upper level.
