Statement of the Problem

A. Statement of the Problem

This study aims to determine and compare the quality of the PET bottles with soil and to gravel and sand in usual flooring specifically the following questions will be answered:

1. What is the quality of a floor that was made up of soil and PET bottles in terms of:

1.1 Durability

1.2 Life Span

1.3 Texture

2. What is the quality of PET bottles with gravel and sand and the PET bottles with soil in terms of:

1.1 Durability

1.2 Life Span

1.3 Texture

3. Is there a significant difference between of PET bottles with soil, than a PET bottle with gravel and sand in flooring.

B. Statement of the Hypothesis

After some initial research we formulated the null hypothesis.

There is no significant difference but the quality the PET bottles and the gravel and sand are more capable of being flooring.

C. Conceptual Framework

Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) is one of the most commonly used food grade packaging plastics due to its chemical inertness and appealing physical properties. As with most plastics

Soil material is a critical component in the mining and construction industries. Soil serves as a foundation for most construction projects. Massive volumes of soil can be involved in surface mining, road building and dam construction. Earth sheltering is the architectural practice of using soil for external thermal mass against building walls.

A PET bottle is one of the most commonly used packaging plastics due to its chemical inertness and appealing physical properties. Soil material is a critical component in the mining and construction industries.

D. Significance of the Study

This study is about using the PET bottles and soil as an alternative for flooring will benefit:

Carpenters. Less working hours for their job. This may help the carpenters if they make further studies and improve. Thus come up with a view and much... [continues]
