Bachelor of Science in Civil<br/>Engineering, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite, June 2019. Adviser: Engr. Cene M.<br/>Bago.<br/><br/>This study focused on gathering geotechnical reports, Geographical Information<br/>System (GIS) analysis, and software development to provide an accessible reference for the<br/>allowable soil bearing capacity of Cavite province.<br/>The allowable bearing capacities used in this study were acquired from Department of<br/>Public Works and Highways Cavite (DPWH) and Cavite State University<br/>Physical Planning Unit (Cvsu-PPU). These data were analyzed using a GIS application,<br/>Surfer 15, to provide a contour map representing the borehole locations, elevation, and<br/>allowable soil bearing capacity at depths one, two, three, four, and five<br/>meters. Moreover, the researchers also developed a program that features the generated<br/>contour maps and additional functions such as, locating soil bearing capacity at each<br/>municipality of Cavite, computing the allowable bearing capacity using the law of<br/>Terzaghi, and preliminary design of a square footing. The software was coded using<br/>Visual Studio 2010, published into an executable file, and uploaded to a Google Drive in<br/>order to be accessible for public use.<br/><br/>However, considering the limited amount of available geotechnical reports,<br/>bounded by the available data from DPWH, determining the allowable bearing capacities<br/>per each municipality interpolated by the GIS software are not very accurate
