Kenya has made great progress in adopting renewable energy, and solar power is a key part of this movement. Kenya receives an average of about 6.5 hours of sunshine each day throughout the year, making solar energy a practical and efficient solution. Over the past decade, government initiatives, private investments, and support from international organisations […]

Schools are the backbone of any community, and having the right infrastructure can make a world of difference to students, teachers, and the community as a whole. However, traditional methods of building schools can be time-consuming, costly, and disruptive. This is where modular construction comes into play. They offer a faster, more efficient way to

In Kenya, the healthcare sector plays a vital role in providing essential services to millions of people. With the country striving towards universal health coverage, the demand for healthcare services is steadily increasing. In fact, Kenya’s health sector grew by 5.1 percent in the third quarter of 2023. However, this growth also brings a significant

Large civil engineering projects in Kenya, like in many other locations, often face quality control challenges. These challenges may arise from various factors such as resource constraints, logistical issues, regulatory compliance, and environmental conditions. However, with strategic planning and effective management, these challenges can be mitigated, ensuring the successful completion of projects that meet required

Flooding is a recurring problem in Nairobi’s growing urban areas. Rapid urbanisation and changing climate patterns have worsened this issue. Inadequate infrastructure also contributes to frequent and severe flooding. Many neighbourhoods in Nairobi face regular flood threats. However, solutions exist to manage and mitigate these risks. Civil engineering firms in Nairobi can offer effective flood

Civil engineers play an important role in hospital renovations and expansions in Kenya. Their expertise ensures that hospital facilities are safe, efficient, and capable of meeting the growing demands of healthcare services. Here, we share some of the key responsibilities and contributions of civil engineers in such projects. Site Assessment and Planning Feasibility Studies: Civil

Modern cities face a hidden threat known as the urban heat island (UHI) effect, where densely packed urban areas experience significantly higher temperatures than surrounding rural zones. These high temperatures can cause discomfort and create potentially health-damaging environments. However, several civil engineering solutions can help address this issue. As one of the leading engineering firms

With new medical technologies, changing patient needs, and new healthcare models, Kenya’s future hospitals will see significant innovation. This shift requires looking at important trends, challenges, and opportunities that will shape hospital design and construction in the coming years. The goal is to create modern, efficient, and patient-friendly hospitals that can provide better care for
