building codes and regulations in Hargeisa.

04 / Your questions
Before we begin.
How do building codes shape a design in Hargeisa?
They set the setbacks, height, structure and safety, which the design must follow.
What should I consider when planning a house in Hargeisa?
Hargeisa is a highland capital with a mild, dry climate and cooler nights than the coast. The milder highland air means less salt exposure than the coast, so standard finishes and frames last well, while the cooler nights make good roof insulation worth the cost.
Why design to the codes from the start?
So the drawings are approved and built without rework, rather than corrected later.
