WASTEWATER DISPOSAL SYSTEM

-safe disposal of all human wastes is necessary.

To accomplish satisfactory results, human wastes must be disposed of so that:

-they will not contaminate any drinking water supply.

-they will not give rise to a public health hazard by being accessible to vectors(carriers) that may come into contact with food or drinking water.

-they will not cause violation of laws or regulations governing water pollution or sewage disposal.

- they will not pollute or contaminate the waters of any bathing beach, shellfish-breeding ground, or stream used for public or domestic water-supply purposes, or for recreational purposes.

HYRDROLOGY CLASS VISITS PAGASA

Last Thursday (August 6), the 4^th year hydrology class visited the local PAG ASA office to observe how meteorological data and forecasting are gathered and analyzed. The main objective of this visit is to further their knowledge in the measuring relevant data like rainfall, temperature, wind velocity, pressure, humidity etc.

In behalf of the CE class, I would like to thank PAG ASA for accommodating us and sharing their expertise in meteorological data gathering.

CEIVIL ENGINEERING SPAGHETTI BRIDGE BUILDING COMPETITION

My students in Strength of Materials engage themselves into a 2 month long spaghetti bridge building competition as part of their requirement in my subject. This will enable students to design and learn on their own, how to create a strong and economical bridge considering the rules given to them before the contest.

Pictures of the bridges made (30-55% complete)
