F - this thesis is available to the public Due to climate change and the accelerated growth in urbanization, Metro Manila is exposed to constant and extensive floods that are addressed through structural and nonstructural mitigation measures. However, the proportion of these measures vary depending on the specific context of each place. Therefore, this study aimed to find out the complementarity between structural and nonstructural flood mitigation measures to reduce exposure and increase adaptive capacity at the household level in Barangay of Ibayo Tipas in Taguig City, Metro Manila, Philippines. Researchers point out that structural measures have a direct impact at reducing exposure, while nonstructural measures tend to increase the adaptive capacity. This study examined if such notion applies to an area not frequently included in flood mitigation studies. Barangay Ibayo Tipas in Taguig City is an example of an area considered as highly susceptible and affected by flood events and yet accorded minimal interest and attention in terms of flood mitigation and management studies.The research results revealed that structural measures had a better implementation performance than nonstructural ones, mainly due to the regular progress in the implementation of the former compared to the irregular implementation of the latter. The study showed that the authorities of the local government unit of Taguig City were more focused on the implementation of these structural flood mitigation measures in order to prevent increased levels of exposure and reduce the damaging impacts of floods on the community. However, this focus did not significantly decrease exposure to flood events. On the other hand, while nonstructural measures were regularly implemented in the barangay, most of them were carried out only by the barangay government unit. yet, households in Barangay Ibayo Tipas preferred nonstructural measures, even if they were shown to have only low to moderate increase in the adaptive capacities of the households in the barangay. Despite theses results, the study showed complementarity between both measures in terms of addressing the number and types of impact of flooding in Barangay Ibayo Tipas. In terms of importance, nonstructural measures were considered three times better than structural measures in addressing the problem of flooding; on the other hand, with regard to operability performance, structural measures were 25% better performing than nonstructural ones. Overall assessment of complementarity revealed that structural and nonstructural measures were not enough to reduce flood exposure or increase adaptive capacity.
