Good day, I would like to request the following information for an undergraduate research in UP Diliman:
1. Structural Plans of MRT-7 (or any other MRT lines that consists of large or tall structures such as columns and platforms that spans between 2 stations)
The purpose of the research is to assess the possible operational disturbances that could be caused by earthquakes.

Dear Ms. Mallari:
I am a 5th year Undergraduate Student of the University of the Philippines Institute of Civil Engineering (UP-ICE) and am currently conducting the CE 199 Undergraduate Research Project (under Structural Engineering Group) titled Analysis of Dynamic Response of an MRT Structure due to Long Period Ground Motion. With this, I am requesting for structural plans of MRT-7, preferably the plans of superstructure and substructure that spans between two stations and especially parts that consist of tall structures, around the height of a 3-storey building. In addition, I would also like to request for the structural design report.
This research project aims to analyze a three-dimensional finite element method MRT model subjected to simulated long period ground motions. The purpose of the research is to assess the behavior of the MRT structure and its possible operational problems that may occur during an earthquake. Rest assured that all data obtained will be used solely for this research study.
Sincerely yours,
Mr. Christian Karl S. Gavieta
Undergraduate student, UP-ICE

Dear Christian Karl,
Greetings!
Thank you for your request dated December 25, 2019 under Executive Order No. 2 (s. 2016) on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.
Your Request
You asked for Structural Plans of MRT-7.
Response to Request
Considering Section 9.2 of the Concession Agreement (CA) which states that the ownership over the Detailed Engineering Designs (DED) remains with the Concesionaire until the complete transfer of the assets of the project to the Republic of the Philippines (ROP)/DOTr, may we ask SMC MRT7, Inc., to provide the requested documents to the extent allowed by pertinent laws on intellectual property.
Thank you.
Respectfully,
