Density in Urban Development Literature

Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2014, Vol 8, Issue 10

Abstract

Selecting density in urban designs has been often based on experiences and direct understating. The role and importance of density is a general concept in urban development and it is a special, evident concept in urban planning and design. No urban plan and design can be prepared and fulfilled without dealing with density as the main factor for determining and influencing all aspects of planning and designing. Providing a description of a practical method in order to determine maximum density of building in reliance on blocks’ specifications and their influence on building density is one of the notable and practical themes which has been less discussed.Exertion of specific tendencies and unscientific approaches in determination of suggested densities as well as the disproportionateness of these suggestions to specifications of residential blocks are some of the reasons why environmental quality of residential blocks in Iranian cities has decreased.This study makes efforts to first deal with different issues on densities as well as their transformation, and then analyze the main determining and effective factors on density.
