Linawin natin.

Sa National Building Code of the Philippines (PD 1096), HINDI explicitly binanggit ang β€œdriveway gate.” Ang sabi sa Section 1007 – Doors, Windows and the Like ay ito:

β€œDoors, windows and the like less than 2.40 meters above the pavement or ground line shall not, when fully opened or upon opening, project beyond the property line except fire exit doors.”

πŒπ€π‡π€π‹π€π†π€ππ† ππ€π†π‹πˆπ‹πˆππ€π–:
Ang terminong ginamit ng batas ay β€œdoors, windows, and the like.”
Hindi nito tahasang sinabi ang driveway gate, pero sa prinsipyo ng batas, ang gate ay pasok sa β€œand the like” dahil:
β€’ Ito ay opening
β€’ Ito ay nagbubukas at nagsasara
β€’ Maaari itong mag-project sa labas ng property line

Kaya sa pangkalahatang patakaran:
Kung ang driveway gate ay mas mababa sa 2.40 meters at
kapag binuksan ay lalampas sa property line, bangketa, o kalsada
β†’ HINDI ito pinapahintulutan.

ππ†π”ππˆπ“ β€” πŒπ€π‡π€π‹π€π†π€ 𝐀𝐍𝐆 π„π—π‚π„ππ“πˆπŽπ.

Kung:
β€’ Maliit ang lote
β€’ Hindi kasya ang sasakyan kung paloob ang bukas ng gate
β€’ Walang alternative na layout (sliding, recess, redesign)

β†’ Ang ganitong sitwasyon ay SUBJECT FOR EVALUATION AND APPROVAL ng Building Official.

𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐀𝐀𝐍:
Ang Building Code ay hindi bulag na batas.
May mga makatuwirang exception, pero:
β€’ Dapat may sapat na dahilan
β€’ Hindi dapat makasagabal sa public safety
β€’ At hindi basta β€œdahil gusto lang”

𝐒𝐀 π‡π”π‹πˆ:
Ang default rule ay paloob o sliding.
Ang palabas ay exception, at ang exception ay kailangang makatuwiran at aprubado.

𝐏𝐖𝐄𝐃𝐄 𝐁𝐀𝐍𝐆 πŒπ€π†π‹π€π†π€π˜ 𝐍𝐆 𝐁𝐔𝐓𝐀𝐒 𝐍𝐆 ππˆππ“π€ππ€ 𝐎 π€πˆπ‘π‚πŽπ 𝐒𝐀 π…πˆπ‘π„π–π€π‹π‹?

Maraming nagtatanong lalo na sa mga dikit-dikit na bahay sa city: "Pwede bang lagyan ng bintana o window-type aircon ang firewall?"

πŒπ€πˆπŠπ‹πˆππ† π’π€π†πŽπ“: π‡πˆππƒπˆ 𝐏𝐖𝐄𝐃𝐄.

Ayon sa National Building Code of the Philippines (PD 1096) at sa Implementing Rules and Regulations nito:

β€œFirewalls shall be of solid masonry construction and shall have no openings such as windows, doors, or vents.”

ππ€πŠπˆπ“ 𝐃𝐀𝐏𝐀𝐓 π’πŽπ‹πˆπƒ 𝐀𝐍𝐆 π…πˆπ‘π„π–π€π‹π‹?
β€’ Para pigilan ang pagkalat ng apoy sa katabing property
β€’ Para proteksyonan ang kapitbahay at sarili mong bahay
β€’ Dahil ang firewall ay itinuturing na fire-resistive barrier, hindi exterior wall

Kaya kung ang pader ay:
β€’ Nasa property line
β€’ Nakadikit o posibleng dikitan ng katabing lote
βœ”Firewall yan, hindi pwedeng butasan.

Kung kailangan ng bintana o aircon opening, dapat:
β€’ May required setback
β€’ Hindi firewall ang pader
β€’ Nakaayon sa zoning at building code

𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐀𝐀𝐍:
Hindi lahat ng pader ay pwedeng lagyan ng bintana.
At hindi lahat ng β€œginagawa ng iba” ay legal.
