A country, a state, or any political institution's government acts as a system of law and order. Local governments have historically played a key role in providing residents of local communities with services in many different countries. Every municipality needs an official establishment to offer services to the locals and manage daily business. However, accessibility to the community may not even exist if these offices are not close to one another, particularly if they are connected. The municipality of Badiangan currently faces a dilemma focusing on the serviceability of their national and local government offices. These include lack of offices, the need for additional office space, lack of storage facilities, and the need for efficient transactions. To address these concerns, a government administrative center was designed at Poblacion, Badiangan. This study consists of architectural, structural, electrical, and plumbing designs which follow the various standards and codes of practice. The construction specifications, cost estimates, solid waste bin layout, traffic flow, and flow of people are also provided. The inclusion of rainwater harvesting system were used in the structure’s design which is considered as the best feature of the building. The 1,000 sq. m. proposed structure, with an estimated cost of PHP 29,823,188.66, to be funded by the Local Government of Badiangan, has a duration of 192 working days. Installation of safety and security devices is strongly recommended.

Sustainable poultry farming: Design, construction, and testing of a hybrid (solar, grid, battery)-powered egg incubator

Poultry farming is one of the main components of the chain of supply of livestock that feeds a nation. As the demand continues to increase with the increase in population, poultry farming has been relying on artificial production of poultry supply such is true in terms of the incubation process. However commercialized incubator often run on purely grid power for its operation. The dependence on the local energy supply results in additional cost in production as well as a decrease in productivity whenever power outages occur. Thus, this study aimed to design, construct and test a hybrid powered egg incubator to help lessen the cost of production of poultry farming while utilizing the energy from the sun, a renewable energy and incorporating a battery to supply power in case of power outages increasing reliability and decreasing cost. The conduct of the study was implemented, and the device was successfully fabricated, tested and analyzed. Based on the gathered result, the hybrid powered egg incubator was able to perform as intended with a high percentage on the hatching rate of the incubator, which proves that the design made is capable of hatching eggs. Because the primary focus of this study was to lessen the cost of production as well as increase productivity due to losses of potential hatchlings during power interruption, the energy consumption of the device was monitored and it showed that the implementation of the hybrid energy system on the egg incubator was able to save as much as 50 percent of the energy utilized on the incubation and hatching process of the incubator. This in turn would result in the cost of energy consumption of the incubation process to be cut by half and would also affect the total cost it needs to hatch a batch of chickens artificially.

Designing, fabricating, and testing of a corn sheller for the beneficiary barangay at Ajuy Iloilo are the main goals of this study. The corn sheller is a machine that utilizes a shelling cylinder to separate the kernels from its cob and will function through the use of a diesel engine. The com sheller was designed and fabricated based on a range of 2000 - 2500 kg/hr shelling capacity with a chosen 800 rpm speed on the shelling cylinder. The fabrication was done at New Canaan Agri-Machineries at San Jose, Antique. With several considerations, the researcher selected flat bars and angle bars, round bar plain, round bar deformed, square bar, steel plate, CR sheet, Bl pipe schedule 80, Gl pipe schedule 40, CR shafting, perforated sheet, bearing, belt, pillow block, pulley, set screw, and bolt ordinary as the materials for the whole fabrication. The testing was done last June 01, 2022 at Western Visayas Agricultural Research Center Hamungaya, Jaro, Iloilo City and was aligned with Philippine National Standard from PAES.
The result shows that the shelling capacity of the corn sheller is at 2870.27 kg/hr which successfully surpassed the range of 2000 - 25000 kg/hr and a shelling efficiency of 100% which was 0.5% higher than the requirement from PAES standards of 99.5%. The results exhibited a highly effective corn sheller which could hugely assist the farmers from Brgy. Badiangan, Ajuy, Iloilo.

Fishing is important to the Philippine industry. The people of the country are highly dependent in this livelihood. According to the statistics, there are about 1.6 million Filipinos who are part of the country’s fishing industry. 85% of those are comprised by municipal fisheries sector, followed by aquaculture which comprises the 14% and 1% are from commercial fishing. In recent years, there is a noticeable trending decline on the production of fish in the country and municipal fishermen is most affected by this trend as time goes on. This study aimed to develop a device which attracts fish by using the study of sound waves and LED lights. This device is sought to decrease the wait time and indicate if there are fishes around. This can be used by municipal fisheries sector as well as recreational fishers and also by aquaculture sector. This device revolves around the principles of sound wave which is produced by multi-vibrators, and principles of light. The device exhibited great results and performed according to its specifications. The general and specific objectives were met and the overall system showed normal operation and the data gathered also conformed the design criteria.
