Good evening, BSWM. I was trying to find the ground properties through the online website you have sent "http://www.bswm.maps.da.gov.ph/." However, whilst searching in your library, I found that the region ,"NCR," wherein Manila is part of, was not in your list. What our paper needs is Soil and Ground Properties for House Foundation in Manila. Again, such parameters are the following: 1. Type of Soil and its Properties 2. Ground Thermal Conductivity (W/m-K) 3. Ground Thermal Heat Capacity (J/m^3-K) 4. Ground Temperature (deg.C) If it is available online, can you send the main link here? I hope to hear from you at the soonest possible time. Thank you!
