Site Survey and Measurement in Hargeisa

The site survey records the plot size, the levels and the existing features before the design starts. This guide explains what it covers. Somdesign Architects starts every design from the surveyed plot.

the site survey in Hargeisa.

Hargeisa is a highland capital with a mild, dry climate and cooler nights than the coast. For construction, 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.

In Hargeisa, planning the site survey means 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.

04 / Your questions

Before we begin.

What does a site survey cover in Hargeisa?

The plot size, the levels, the boundaries and the existing features, so the design starts from accurate measurements.

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 measure before designing?

A design drawn from wrong measurements is costly to correct, so the survey comes first.
