National Structural Code of the Philippines 6 h Edition Volume 1
FOREWORD
For the protection of public life and property, the design of structures and the preparation of
structural plans for their construction have to be controlled and regulated. For almost four decades now,
this control has been exercised in this country by the National Structural Code of the Philippines with the
initial publication by the Association of Structural Engineers of the Philippines (ASEP) of the National
Structural Code for Buildings. The current publication of the 6'h Edition of NSCP ClOl-10 for buildings,
towers and other vertical structures is the affirmation of the mandate of the ASEP to continuously update
the National Structural Code of the Philippines with the latest technological developments. While
attaini ng a legal status in its use as a referral code of the National Building Code, NSCP C 10 1-lO is a
publication of high technical value in mau:ers of structural concerns.
The NSCP C I 01-10 is not only completely new in its technical substance but also in its format. It
has been a product of a sustained effot1 of ASEP spanning nine years and the fruition of this endeavor has
finally come to reality during my incumbency. It is therefore with a deep feeling of grati tude and pride
that I commend the members of the ASEIP Board, the Codes and Standards Committee and the Publicity
and Publications Committee for their accomplishments.
