Abstract: Philippine is one of the countries near in the Pacific Ring of Fire. In recent years, several moderate to high seismic activities happened that leads to casualties, deaths and damages in different structures. Manila is the capital of the Philippines with a population of almost 1.8 million. Many structures have been considered as old and unsafe and with an impending earthquake, it is essential to rehabilitate these structures. The imminent danger of the West Valley Fault when it moves is known throughout the metro manila and other neighbouring regions. The damage and casualties that will sustain from the possible 7.2 magnitude earthquake is fatal. Conducting mitigation programs is critical for it will greatly benefit the government and the people. Rapid Visual Screening (RVS) is an effective and efficient way of assessing the building’s structural integrity. This methodology is used to assess the structure’s seismic risk by visual observation of the exterior and interior of the buildings and a data collection form. RVS was applied in 26 hospital building’s located in Manila and the outcome of the assessment has shown that only 6 hospital buildings proved to be seismically adequate when using the level 1 data collection form. RVS is an effective tool in providing initial insight in the building’s vulnerability to seismic event.
