A brief discussion about the wind loading provisions in the NSCP 2001 (National Structural Code of the Philippines) is presented.

A recent review of the the development of wind speed maps in the Philippines, from which much was learned, is summarized.

Ideas for future activities and research related to wind engineering, including possible improvements in the NSCP wind loading provisions, are then suggested.

Ideas for future activities and research related to wi nd engineering, including possible improvements in the NSCP wind loading provisions, are then suggested.

KEYWORDS: Philippines, NSCP, wind engineering 1 INTRODUCTION: TYPHOON DISASTER MITIGATION EFFORTS BY ENGINEERS The Philippines is considered to be in the Typhoon Alley or Typhoon Gateway o f the Pacific northwest.

R ellin, et al, 2002 An average of 9 landfalling typhoons visit the Philippines each year.

Pacheco Aquino, 2005; after PAGASA In 2004, the Phi lippine Institute of Civil Engineers (PICE) launched a national program named Disaster Mitigation and Preparedness Strategies (DMAPS), to complement the earlier Disaster Quick Response Program (DQRP).

In addition to the response phase and recoveryrehabilitation phase, which historically were the f irst focus of DQRP, the mitigation phase and preparedness phase of disaster management were now being given due attention.

In addition to earthquake which w as historically the focus of DQRP, typhoons and other natural hazards were now being discussed.

This report summ arizes portions of an earlier paper entitled DMAPS Looking Forward: Calling for Typhoon Engineers, pr esented at the PICE National Convention last November 17-19, 2005.

True enough, typhoon winds cause damages to structures that, alt hough not generally catastrophic, due to the frequency of t yphoons, add up more significantly than those by other types of disasters.

Example photos of damages due to strong winds from one t yphoon (Typhoon Unding, International Name: Muifa, November 2004) are shown.

More damage photos from the same typhoon could be obtained from.

The photos show that strong winds could dam age electrical transmission lines and their supporting poles or lattice towers, roof structures, windows, internal or external walls, advertisement boards or sign structures, and trees.

Additionally, fallen trees, walls, and other structures were shown to damage adjacent houses, transmission lines, and even parked cars.
