Geo Analysis Activity

The document presents a geological and geotechnical analysis for the Catalina Lake Residence project in Bauan, Batangas, detailing the site location, foundation investigation requirements, and seismic parameters. It highlights the area's geological features, including proximity to Taal Volcano and associated geohazards such as volcanic activity and landslides. The analysis emphasizes the need for proper borehole investigations and groundwater management to ensure structural support and safety.

The area south of Taal Volcano, Batangas, lies within the
A Philippine Mobile Belt. It features fault lines (red) and
volcanic deposits near the project site, 22.2 km from Taal
P Volcano.
Volcanic tuffs, pyroclastic flows, and lahar deposits shaped
by the Taal volcanic arc highlight the region's active
geological and tectonic processes.
