Criteria for Empirical Research RELIABILITY:

preferably,

outcomes

are

assessed

with

relatively

little

measurement error. Unreliability increases unexplained variation within groups and reduces the power of analysis. VALIDITY: in selecting a relevant measure for an outcome, it is critical that logical inferences can be made for the operations upon which the measure was based to the theoretical constructs relevant to the study. RANDOMIZATION:

subjects

should

be

randomly

selected

from

the

correspondents and then randomly assigned to interviewing. 3.2. Data Presentation, Interpretation and Analysis The researcher itemized the process and method of data gathering into different design categories and considerations for proper analysis of the proposed project. 

Considering the proper and best location of the city for the said proposal. Identifying and rating the three-selected site through the use of different site criteria; the researcher came up with the site selection process.



The proper location of the site. Considering its pros and cons for the proposed project is necessary for the proper planning and designing of the proposal.



Through interviews and observation of the present educational, economic and social situation of the site, the probability density of users and their requirements are very important for the researcher in visualizing the idea and the effect of the concept in a particular user.

40

 Proper allocation of the said space requirement through the use of architectural programming and space analysis will help the proponent in understanding the related spaces that will result in good flow of traffic within and outside the building. 

Information about design consideration strategies of learning complex and other related information about the proposal is also necessary. With all the related information and the process of analyzing the proponent

identifies the consideration in planning and designing the proposed project. As the synthesis, the daily transaction regarding the use of the project proposal and the consideration of natural elements and resources will greatly affect planning preparation. 3.2.1 Site Selection Site selection involves measuring the needs of a new project against the merits of potential locations. It is the method of selecting the most appropriate and suitable site that has the capability, ability, and potential to stand out for the project proposal. The program must prime accurately for the progress and development of the most productive site for the project. The program development objectives are based on the factors including the construction of the site, requirements, size of the buildings, the material used, and facilities needed for the total development of the scheme. 3.2.1.1 Site Criteria These are the general and specific site criteria that will aid the researcher in selecting the most suitable site for the project proposal.

3.2.1.3 Site Justification The system of evaluation rating is one of the processes which are used to know which site is fitted for the construction of the proposed project. Through this, the researcher can choose from which among the three (3) sites is fitted for the project.

Figure 6. Site A Barangay Carmen, Hukay, Silang, Cavite Site Location Source: https://earth.google.com/web/ The site is situated in Brgy. Carmen, Hukay, Silang, Cavite. It is the nearest site in the community of Brgy. Carmen. The site is flexible for future development and expansions. One of its advantages is the Cavite-Laguna Expressway that can attract tourists and by-passers once developed. The site is suitable for the proposal Marahuyo Mall because of its nature, natural open areas to recreational and solemn ambiance. The site has an area of 11.44 hectares. The site is also open for natural preservation and development. The expansion of the site is possible and open for new development. 44

Figure 7. Site B Brgy. Carmen, Hukay, Silang, Cavite Site Location The site is located in Brgy. Carmen, Hukay, Silang, Cavite. It has a lot dimension of 14.94ha. The future development around this site is possible that is needed and suitable for the project. The site’s irregular shape affects the flexibility of the site’s future expansion. There are available road network in the site but the site is less visible from the main road near the site.

Figure 8. Site C Brgy. Carmen, Hukay, Silang, Cavite Site Location The site is located in Brgy. Carmen, Hukay, Silang, Cavite near CaviteLaguna Expressway. It has a lot dimension of 6.67ha. This site is not that flexible 45

for future development in the area because it is surrounded by road networks that will limit the project’s future expansion. In the other hand the site can use those road networks to be more accessible and more visible to the public. 3.2.2 Site Data 3.2.2.1 Macro Site
