A group of UE College of Engineering-Caloocan graduates and students of Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (BSCE) shone bright at the recently held MIDAS Academic Festival!

Dubbed as the first convention of MIDAS academic users in the Philippines, the inter-school event was hosted by MIDAS IT Philippines and held last October 22, 2022, at Sequoia Hotel Manila Bay, and had participants from 29 universities and colleges nationwide.

The affair was a means to showcase midas Civil, which is 鈥渁 Bridge Design and Analysis software that combines powerful pre-and post-processing features with an extremely fast solver, which makes bridge modeling and analysis simple, quick, and effective, [along with] several easy parameter modification tools available that can be used for parametric analysis leading to optimized and economical design鈥� per <>.

Mark Levi C. Espino, who had formally earned his UE BSCE degree last July 22, won as the Champion in the MIDAS Speed Modeling in Building Category, besting peers from 13 other academic institutions in demonstrating their ability to model structures using MIDAS software within a specific time frame. Mentored by Engr. John Rei M. Gomez, a UE Caloocan BSCE faculty member, and the College鈥檚 BSCE Department Chairman, Engr. Eduardo B. Leron Jr., Mr. Espino was awarded a P12,000.00 cash prize and a certificate attesting to his championship.

Meanwhile, the UE Caloocan BSCE team of Mr. Espino and his fellow July 2022 graduates Janna Ba帽ares (who had also earned the Latin honor of Cum Laude) and Israel Jeshurun Sevilla and 4th-year student Neil Stephen Manzo, with Engr. Leron as Adviser, presented their technical paper on 鈥淧amagwalay: Proposed Design of Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) for Brgy. Apalit, Floridablanca, Pampanga鈥�. The collective effort won the team a P15,000.00 cash prize, individual certificates, and a congratulatory plaque.

For their part, UE Caloocan BSCE seniors Joe Nicol Intal and Mark Cabral took part in the event鈥檚 quiz bee, which saw a proverbial battle of brains while learning functions of the MIDAS software.

A research paper by a team representing the UE College of Engineering-Caloocan was recently presented at the 2022 National Midyear Convention and Technical Conference of the Philippine Institute of Civil Engineers (PICE). The conference, whose theme was 鈥淐ivil Engineering and its Specializations: Responding to our New Normal and Foreseeing our Futures,鈥� was held last June 17 to 18 onsite at SM City General Santos and through the convention鈥檚 online platform.

Engr. Eduardo B. Leron Jr., the Civil Engineering Department Chair of the UE CEng鈥檊 Caloocan, led the said five-person UE research team and presented their paper on the team鈥檚 behalf as a resource speaker at the PICE convention-conference.

Specifically, Engr. Leron (seen in the photo here) presented a research paper he co-authored with four of his then UE BSCE students, namely Dean Earol P. Cuizon, Jester John C. Loreto, Philip John C. Mercado and Fitzgerald M. Ta帽ala, in cooperation with Engr. John Francis L. Race, Quantity Surveyor of Makati Development Corporation (MDC).

The UE CEng鈥檊 Caloocan researchers鈥� paper, titled 鈥淒igital Construction through BIM Systems for Engineering Practices amidst the Pandemic in the Philippines鈥� and which Engr. Leron presented at the conference鈥檚 Project Management and Construction Engineering session, was essentially about the current situation of digital construction in the Philippines, focusing on different construction companies in the country.

Engr. Leron鈥攁 UE CEng鈥檊 Caloocan graduate who earned the degree of Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, Cum Laude, in December 2012鈥攚ill next be a resource speaker of the different Regional Technical Conferences of the PICE around the country under the Project Management and Construction Engineering Specialization.

Aside from being a Department Chair, Engr. Leron is the Adviser of UE Caloocan鈥檚 Central Student Council and is the Auditor of PICE鈥檚 North Metro Manila Chapter.

A month after this PICE convention-conference came the July 22, 2022, commencement rites featuring the latest batch of Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering graduates of UE College of Engineering-Caloocan. Among them were Mr. Cuizon, who also earned the Latin honor of Cum Laude, and Mr. Ta帽ala, who was also conferred his batch鈥檚 Leadership Award for Men of UE Caloocan and the UE CEng鈥檊 Caloocan鈥檚 College Distinguished Graduate Award. Meanwhile, Mr. Loreto and Mr. Mercado are Summer 2022 completers.)

Cheers and kudos, Civil Engineering Warriors!

A team of students of the Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering (BSCE) program of the UE College of Engineering (CEng鈥檊)-Caloocan secured Second Place in the recently held Executive Challenge: CAD Edition! They were awarded last February 12, during the Civil Engineering Executive Organization鈥檚 Engineering Congress 2022.

The team of fourth-year UE CEng’g Cal. student Fitzgerald M. Ta帽ala and third-year students Andrea T. Martin and Lawrence Spencer D. Mangaluz competed with 10 other schools from across the country before emerging in the top three. (The first placer represented the Technological Institute of the Philippines-Manila, while the third placer hailed from the Camarines Sur Polytechnic Colleges.)

As the competition’s participating teams were tasked to redesign an apartment into a sustainable, pro-environment living area through a three-dimensional computer-aided design (CAD) model, project portfolio and presentation in a month鈥檚 time, the UE Caloocan BSCE team rendered “The Sibol Project,鈥� which had eight green amenities: Plant-E (Likas), Rainwater Harvesting System (Agos), Eco-Laundry (Alon), Installation of Solar Panels (Sinag), Occupancy Sensors (Galaw), Natural Lighting (Liwanag) and Ventilation (Ginhawa), and Waste Management (Dalisay).

Also discussed in their presentation were the utilization of ecobricks, double glazing glass, and PVC pipes.

Serving as the team鈥檚 mentor was the UE CEng鈥檊 Caloocan Civil Engineering Department Chair, Engr. Eduardo B. Leron Jr.
