Project DIGDI

Cheers to the one that we’ve got 🧴🍾

Let’s all get ready as we welcome another project under DIGDI. A project ready to revolutionize the concrete industry.

Let's get that trash of yours to their proper places, and make the best out of it. Throw plastics in our bins and let’s make bricks out of them.

Tomorrow, together let's open this chapter,see you in Xavier!

Alexander Bardet, a French systems and environment engineer visited Project DIGDI last August 25-29, 2022.

Mr. Bardet also delivered a talk on Systems Thinking to selected students from the College of Sciences, Engineering & Architecture. As part of his internship with Coastal Cities at Risk Philippines, he immersed himself in the CCARPH-related projects in Naga and Camarines Sur.

On his 5-day visit, he experienced panel fabrication using recycled concrete aggregates for Project DIGDI. He then analyzed the systems of the Project and provide feedback to better the replication of the project in the future.

The Civil Engineering students major in Construction Engineering and Management experienced the panel fabrication for 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐃𝐈𝐆𝐃𝐈 last August 25-26, 2022 at the Barangay Covered Court of Panicuason, Naga City.

Each student moulded one wall panel which will be used in the project. The wall panels maximized 𝑹𝒆𝒄𝒚𝒄𝒍𝒆𝒅 𝑪𝒐𝒏𝒄𝒓𝒆𝒕𝒆 as replacement to 𝐶𝑜𝑎𝑟𝑠𝑒 𝐴𝑔𝑔𝑟𝑒𝑔𝑎𝑡𝑒, which is very positive and a way to advocate circular economy of concrete.

They are the Civil Engineering Students who vowed to commit themselves to the project as part of the Secretariat, Logistics, Creatives, SocMed Managers and Payroll.

For Project concerns, you may contact and communicate to them.

Truly, our collective efforts are key to the success of the project. Tune in, for the upcoming Project DIGDI updates.

The Civil Engineering, Electronics and Communication Engineering, Computer Engineering, Science, Technology and Society, and Natural Sciences students of Ateneo de Naga University attended the Systems Thinking last August 26 2022 during Alexandre Bardet's visit to Naga City for the project DIGDI as part of his internship in CCARPH. He discussed both the systematic and analytic thinking that can influence how we solve complex problems which later can be developed as a StartUp.

Mr. Alexandre Bardet, a CCARPH (ADMU) Intern, will give a lecture on Systems Thinking to the Ateneo de Naga University engineering and natural sciences majors. Systems Thinking is a powerful approach for understanding the WHY of the PROBLEMS, and how we can better solve them.

Coastal Cities At Risk PH (CCARPH) is one of the partners of Project DIGDI, a project that aims to create a self-sustaining, disaster-resilient house made of Recycled Coarse Aggregate Concrete (RCAC) with a clean water system, built-in rainwater catchment facility, aquaponics system, solar-powered radio communication system, domestic liquid waste-treatment system, Mobile Cloud technology, and communal cooking area with a water heater.

This is an onsite event on August 26, 2022, at 3PM, Arrupe Convention Hall.

To keep the fire ablaze, the Civil Engineering Students of Ateneo de Naga University experienced the Fabrication of Wall Panels during one of the weeks of their on-the-job training. Thumping, Aggregate Crushing, Sieving, and fabrication are among their learnings that they can use in the future.

The students acknowledge that the fabrication of walls was among the most memorable experiences of the junior engineer journey .

To keep the fire ablaze, the Civil Engineering Students of Ateneo de Naga University experienced the Recycled Concrete Aggregate crushing during the first week of their on-the-job training. Thumping, Aggregate Crushing, Sieving, and fabrication are among their learnings that they can use in the future.

The students acknowledge that crushing was the most tiring and exhausting part, however, it is also the most enjoyable and most memorable part of OJT.

As part of Project DIGDI-STEER, Ateneo de Naga University and Ateneo de Manila University AIC team collaborated to conduct a Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) technologies workshop to the residents of Panicuason, Naga City. The activity aimed to introduce the DRR technologies which will be incorporated in the DIGDI houses to the beneficiaries, and also to the community, including Barangay officials and Panicuason Elementary School teachers.

Living sustainably and disaster risk-free is the key to empowering the community. Project DIGDI understood that improvements can only happen when learned and measured through education.

A successful exchange of information with Ateneo Innovation Center (AIC) and the Borromeo Family was held on October 28, 2021. The forum took the discussion in understanding the responsibilities and the technology that will be applied to the homes of beneficiaries.
