Evaluation of Factors Influencing the Spatial-Physical Structure of Worn-Out Urban Fabrics (Case Study: Worn-Out Fabrics of Dogonbadan Town)
Abstract
Many traditional tissues that once had value and quality in the cities are now subject to destruction. A large part of the residents has migrated for various reasons, the historical, cultural and social values of the neighborhoods have also suffered a crisis. Today, only a few buildings can be seen in these neighborhoods, which have the color and flavor of their glorious past. The current research is of descriptive-analytical type and is practical in terms of purpose. Data collection was conducted by library, documentation and field methods. The innovative aspect of the research is based on the pathological approach to the qualities of urban tissues in the physical-spatial structure; therefore, with a more recent look, the main factors affecting the loss of traditional residential areas and its social deterioration can be identified and the causes of the worn-out texture can be explained. This research aimed to investigate the factors affecting the specific and physical conditions of the worn-out urban fabric and to find solutions for effective intervention in the worn-out fabric of Dogonbadan city. The collected data were processed, tested and analyzed using Excel and SPSS software. The Arc GIS10 software was used to draw the maps. Based on the findings, there is a significant relationship between the low financial power of the residents of worn-out fabrics and the lack of reconstruction. The lack of proper and sufficient income of the residents of these areas prevents the implementation of reform and reconstruction projects (with a correlation coefficient of 0.289). Also, the analysis of the physical structure of worn-out urban tissue is a prerequisite for the organization and reconstruction of worn-out tissues (with a Chi-square of 500.258 and a significance level of 0.000 for the structure quality index and a Chi-square of 425.321 and a significance level of 0.000 for the reconstruction materials index). In future studies, in addition to internal factors, management factors can also be evaluated and concluded in the functioning of urban fabrics.
Keywords: traditional tissues, worn-out fabric, reconstruction and improvement, Dogonbadan.
