Bureau of Soils and Water Management(BSWM)

Greetings!

I am a 4th year BS Civil Engineering researcher currently doing my undergraduate research on the generation of physical vulnerability curves in Baguio City, particularly for rainfall-induced landslides. Currently, I am in the data gathering phase of my research. Hence, I would like to ask for any available geotechnical investigation report (containing soil parameters, particle size analysis, and borehole logs [if available]) in Baguio, particulary for the following locations:

- Quirino Hill
- Ambiong
- Rock Quarry
- Gabriela Silang
- Dagsian

I do understand that data may be limited, hence I will also gladly accept reports from other locations in Baguio aside from the above-mentioned locations.

Thank you.
