Abstract:   (1708 Views)
The urban form represents the spatial distribution of activities in urban areas. Considering the impact of urban design on management issues and environmental, economic and social characteristics of communities, measuring the construction and form of the city of Babol can be one of the factors influencing the success of urban planners in urban areas of Mazandaran province and Babol city. The research approach in this research is development research. Data analysis was performed using various indicators, urban form in six areas of Babol city. The analysis showed that in areas with more regular use patterns (north and west), density and urban gross densities are higher and there is no significant difference in terms of indicators of urban form, especially compression and complexity between Babol urban areas. Correlation analyzes show a strong relationship between most of the spatial indices. In general, factors such as the primary role of the city (commercial and academic, and especially the market), land use pattern, ownership, lack of strict implementation of urban planning rules and regulations, the ineffectiveness of urban development plans, have caused a disturbance in most of the urban fabric of Babol and due to the accelerated trend taken by uncontrolled vertical construction and the ever-increasing demand for excessive compression, there are signs of deviation in the new form.
