Analysis of residential density on the Unplanned Hillside Built Environment in Botswana (Case of Peleng, Lobatse)

摘要

The study identified the impacts of residential densityrnand analyzed the number of buildings in thernresidential plots per each slope category in order torndetermine the impacts of residential density and needrnfor hillside residential density regulations. The studyrnthen concluded that there is a need for hillsidernresidential density guidelines for each slope categoryrnin order to mitigate the problem. Slopes 4o and belowrncan be guided by the existing building regulations forrnflat areas hence slopes 5o+ should have specificrnhillside residential density guidelines implemented.
