Abstract:
This dissertation titled “Architectural and Structural Design of a Three-storey Clinic in Kicukiro
District: addresses the pressing need for modern infrastructure in Rwanda, particularly in
meeting the growing demands of the hospitality industry. Given Rwanda’s socio-economic
landscape, where the tourism and hospitality sectors are pivotal for economic growth, this study
aims to evaluate and create a sustainable architectural framework and structural design for a
hotel that integrates modern design principles and sustainability.
Problem Statement: As Rwanda advances towards its vision for sustainable development, there
is a critical requirement for infrastructures, such as hotels, that cater to the influx of tourists
while promoting local economic growth. This study seeks to address the gap in architectural
and structural frameworks within the hospitality sector, particularly in densely populated
regions like Kicukiro District.
