Due to the growth of population and urbanization, the strategy of high-rise building has become popular nowadays. With the increasing use of high-rise buildings nowadays due to problems such as lack of housing, the optimal use of these buildings can be a solution to meet the social, economic and other needs of today's societies. On the other hand, social changes in both macro (neighborhood) and micro (house) scales show a decrease in the feeling of satisfaction in the apartment house.

  The purpose of the current research is to review the comparative patterns of high-rise construction and villa houses and a case study of Amirkabir and Mohajeran settlement in Arak city.
Findings and

Examining various studies shows that the choice of each of the models of residential structures has advantages and disadvantages. Residential towers with security and comfort, public spaces and access, management and control, most importantly, proximity to important uses and access to public transportation, are considered among the important and lively residential spaces of the city, and unlike traditional housing, they can have a wide range To attract social groups including children, adults and the elderly. Meanwhile, the apartment house has reduced satisfaction due to the loss of the quality of the semi-public arena. Therefore, presenting creative patterns and designs and checking the status of various indicators at the medium and small scale can be a suitable solution in comparative analysis.

In recent years, paying attention to the characteristics of the residential environment and satisfaction with housing has gained special importance, but paying attention to the characteristics of different income groups, especially the vulnerable sections of the society, such as those seeking help, has not been given much attention. This is despite the fact that by knowing the residential environment of these groups, it is possible to pay more attention to them in planning and policies, and ultimately it will improve the residential environment and ultimately urban growth and development. It became a stable city. In this regard, the aim of the current research is to measure the satisfaction of the low-income urban strata with the quality of the components of the residential environment in Nair city. The data collection tool included documentary studies and surveys through the distribution of questionnaires. The statistical population of the research consists of the urban help-seekers of Nair City Aid and Welfare Committee, which were randomly available, SPSS software was used to analyze the data. In this regard, one-sample t-test and independent t-test, as well as one-way analysis of variance and Sheffe's post hoc test have been used. The findings from the one-sample t-test showed that the clients' satisfaction with their residential environment is higher than the average (3.05) and the one-way variance analysis of the influence of individual characteristics indicates that Age had an effect on satisfaction. According to the results of the research, creating more facilities for access to health and treatment centers and creating parks and green spaces can reduce the problems of residents and increase the level of satisfaction of these groups with their housing.

In this research, we aimed to identify the effective factors in increasing visual attractiveness to achieve high urban quality and the mood of people in the urban landscape. Previous studies have shown that visual factors play an important role in improving the quality of urban environments. Therefore, the promotion of urban quality, by creating a visually attractive space in the everyday landscape, can help restore vitality to cities and make them a more desirable environment. The research method is a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods. At the first, the content validity of the questionnaire was measured by the Content Validity Ratio (CVR). Elements with CVR >0.49 were chosen as the final set of clusters. Then, using the SAM questionnaire, 12 participants who were not related to architectural education were examined. The results shows that the landscape, openness, mystery, social interactions and pedestrian  give the highest priority to the creation and promotion of this quality and these elements significantly change the participants’ mood. The novelty of this study is in using the SAM questionnaire to assess mood in front of the everyday landscape.

The present study has evaluated the important factors of environmental quality differences in residential areas of Mashhad with regard to social conditions and environmental disturbances by descriptive and analytical methods. Data were collected from a sample of 384 participants using a researcher-made questionnaire. For this study, data on environmental conditions, disturbances, and social interactions were collected. The collected data were analyzed using various statistics, especially Chi-square test and generalized logistic regression in SPSS software. The results showed that traffic-induced pollution in neighborhoods has a high prevalence and other pollutants, depending on the type, are often point-based and each area has its own conditions. In determining the levels of spot pollution, underlying factors such as length of stay in the city, education, age and socio-economic status were decisive. So, that people with a better history of residence and socioeconomic status expressed dissatisfaction more than others regarding the severity of pollution, especially in relation to environmental dimensions (2.3-21.3), tensions (3.6-4.4), and social anomalies (2.0-4.4). Given the differences in the level of damages received by residents, how to intervene is fundamentally challenging. Under these circumstances, planning and solving environmental problems is easily possible, but controlling different sensitivities is extremely difficult.

Housing is the most important urban element in the sustainable development of the city. It is essential to pay attention to it because housing development, in addition to the environment, affects the economy, culture and social issues. Therefore, achieving sustainable housing in order to increase and improve the quality of life of the current and future generations is a serious matter, because today with the growing population, the need to build housing is increasing day by day. Therefore, achieving urban sustainable development and paying attention to sustainable housing can play a constructive role. In terms of social sustainability, sustainable housing is the one that, in addition to providing the necessary facilities and public services for a better human life, is in line with the culture, methods and traditions of its inhabitants and causes family stability, social growth, increasing the safety of people and specially to promote culture and peace of mind of family members. In this regard, the present study (with the aim of achieving indicators of sustainable social development) intends to study and compare indicators of social sustainability in two different residential contexts in Sabzevar city.

The present research has been done in two old and new contexts of this city. The central context has a population of 14843 people (5011 families) and Tovhid town which is located 5 km away in the northern part of Sabzevar city has a population of 18239 people (4933 families). The present study is applied-developmental in term of type, the method of research is descriptive-analytical and carried out in survey method (questionnaire). The statistical population in this research is two old and new contexts of Sabzevar city. The sample size according to Cochran's formula was obtained 750 people and the number of samples for the old contexts was 374 and the new ones was 376 samples, which were completed and conducted by stratified random sampling method. Data were analyzed using the one-sample t-test, comparison of means, Pearson and Chi-square, and multivariate regression. The value of alpha for all indicators is equal to. 0.74 which indicates that this scale has appropriate reliability.

The results show that the average score of the Housing Social Sustainability indicator in the central context is 2.924 and in Tovhid town is 3.206. Findings show that the average indicator of social sustainability of housing in the central context (old context) is significantly lower than average and in Tovhid town slightly higher than average. In other words, the indicators of social sustainability of housing in the Tovhid town are close to sustainability and are unsustainable in the central contexts. In the following, the two means are compared with the two assumptions of equality of variances and the assumption of inequality of variances. Given that the significance level of the F test is less than 0.05, the assumption of equality of variances is rejected. And since the level of significance in comparing the means with the assumption of inequality of variance is equal to zero and less than 0.05, it indicates that the difference between the two means is significant. Therefore, there is a significant difference between the studied contexts of Sabzevar city in terms of social sustainability of the residential environment. The results of the correlation coefficient show that there is a significant positive relationship between household income/ occupation/ length of stay/ ownership and housing social sustainability indicator in both the central context and Tovhid town. There is a significant negative relationship between education level and social sustainability indicator of housing in the central context. Thus, it can be said that people with higher education have more knowledge and information about the quality of municipal services as well as citizenship rights, and as a result, they expect to get more benefit from these services. Using the combined multiple regression model, the factors and indicators affecting the social sustainability of the two residential contexts were identified. The results indicate that the nine indicators included in the model, explain 72% of the changes in the dependent variable (social sustainability). In the central context, the Beta values (​in the above table) show that the security indicator has the greatest impact on the old social sustainability of Sabzevar (central) and after these, the indicators of housing quality and identity, in the second and third priority, will also have increasing effects on the social sustainability of the central context. In the new context, the Beta values ​​ (in the above table) show that the participation indicator has the greatest impact on the social sustainability of the new context of Sabzevar (Tovhid town), and after these identity and access to services indicators, in the second and third priority, will also have increasing effects on the social sustainability of the new context.

The results obtained in the studied contexts show that the two central and new residential contexts of Sabzevar are not the same in terms of social sustainability indicators. Indicators of place attachment and identity in the central context are more desirable than the new context. the security indicator is not appropriate in any of the contexts. Citizen health in the new context is more desirable due to cleaner air, lack of noise pollution and wider parks. This last indicator has made the residents of the town more cheerful. The housing quality indicator in Tovhid town is considered more desirable than the central context and in general, the average score of social sustainability in the new context is higher than the old one. Also, the results of multivariate regression in the central context show that the security indicator has the greatest impact on the social sustainability of that context and in the new context, the participation indicator has the greatest impact on the social sustainability of that context. Therefore, in order to achieve social sustainability of the two studied context, the two indicators of security and participation have an important place.

On the verge of entering the third millennium, very fast evolutions have been occurred in human societies which apart from profits accompanied with serious damages too. Available documents and evidence indicated that the main driver for these evolutions has been industrial revolution and its resulted effects as fallowing to apply machine in human societies and using electronic devices resulted from this revolution we were witness of accelerating resource consumption from one hand and on the other hand with development of medical science and applying technology in manufacturing medical devices, deaths have been decreased and subsequently population has increased. With high rate of fertility and immigration from rural to city areas, especially cities of developing countries in recent decades have been expanded dramatically. At civil levels, with economic, social and cultural evolution of 19th and 20th centuries affected from modernism is caused genesis of metropolises and generated fundamental changes in the their structure and spatial-physical organization. Looking at this situation, a new approach for sustainable development has been proposed at international level that controlling development and determining restrictions are among its objectives align with human society welfare and controlling damages to the environment. Given to the course of the evolutions in the theoretical and practical   domain of the cities under the influence of new paradigm, meeting needs is a requisite for life environment in addition personal welfare and high quality of life are required and necessary too. Considering to sustainable development theory, some emphasize confidently that environment, society and economical subjects should be considered for the unpredictable future of the environment.

The current study is descriptive- analytical which has been conducted using  effective indicators in sustainability of residential environment using fuzzy analytic hierarchy process and entropy Model. Available methods and models for selection and evaluation are categorized in two general groups: 1- flat models 2- hierarchical models. One of the models in this regard is fuzzy analytic hierarchy model. Fuzzy analytic hierarchy approach is an expanded AHP approach.Table No. (1): Expert weighting of indicators and criteria In this study various data from different aspects of the sustainable (environmental, economic, social and physical) development has been collected. In scientific studies one of the well-known methods that is widely used to solve multi criteria decision making problems is fuzzy AHP. Accordingly, if fuzzy values were triangular numbers which are shown as (mi, li, ui) then it can be calculated using below equation.Entropy in data theory is a measure of unreliability which is specified with probability distribution (p < sub>i) and measuring this unreliability () by Shanon has been stated as below in which the greater dispersion in the values of an indicator, the more important that indicator is. 

Due to the importance of sustainability in development and sustainable development in recent years, so many investigations have been done in various domains and in dimensions such as economical, environmental and physical ones.  According to the results obtained from this study, physical criterion which includes (construct, accessibility and vicinity) is the main criterion considered by experts with numerical weight of 0.544.  Social, economic and environmental dimensions are respectively at next level of priority. For the same reason physical dimension is emphasized as the main influential factor in Tabriz sustainable development in this study. At the next step dimensions of sustainable development were analyzed and the role that each dimension plays on civil areas was studied and below conclusions were obtained: Of 66 indices for analysing sustainable development dimensions in Tabriz city, 7 indices belonged to economic dimension, 14 to social dimension, 8 to environmental dimensions and remaining are applied for physical dimension that the obtained results are summarized as below:  At economic dimension districts 4, 1 and 2 with scores of 6.14, 5.46 and 4.95 scores obtained first, second and third scores of indicators and district 10 gained the lowest score.

Sustainable development is the dominant paradigm in the third millennium. This theory has been expanded in proposed period of time with a glance to environmental discussion and with the aim of preventing environmental deterioration and has been drawn to different discussions after passing a short time. Sustainable development encounters with inappropriate production, distribution and nature destructive pattern that its final purpose is to control environmental damages and increasing the quality of life. This study has been conducted with the aim of prioritizing sustainable development dimensions at the first stage and weighting civil districts based on the same dimensions. The results obtained from this study indicated that physical dimension is at the first priority among other dimensions.

The developments of recent decades have caused the new facilities of today's cities to be unable to provide peace and security to citizens as in the past. This issue has become a social anomaly and along with it, criminal behaviors have occurred in the world's urban housing system. In this regard, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effective components on residents' sense of satisfaction with the social security of Gorgan settlements. The research method is descriptive-analytical and its statistical population is households living in residential complexes in Gorgan and the sample size is 200 households. The required information has been used through documentary studies and field surveys using a questionnaire. SPSS statistical software and Pearson correlation and one-sample t-tests were used to analyze the data. The results show that there is a direct and positive relationship between the feeling of satisfaction of the residents of residential complexes with the appropriate lighting components of the environment and the physical texture of the building. Lighting of passages and passages around the building and where people live at night creates peace and a sense of security in the movement of children and women. It also reduces stress and anxiety in people when walking on foot at night. Housing aristocracy is another component that is directly related to creating a sense of security among residents. Other effective components in creating a sense of security among urban dwellers include the occurrence of crime in the place of residence, neighborhood relations and environmental variables.

One of the issues raised in urban planning is the physical activities of citizens in their leisure time. This research has focused on the role of the residential environment on physical-leisure activities of residents of Salman Farsi and Ghaffari neighborhoods in the city of Sari, which has been done by a questionnaire and descriptive-analytical method. Data has been analyzed using SPSS software using statistical tests like Friedman, Chi- Square, Mann Whitney, Cramer’s V and Contingency Coefficient. Results show the most important criterion for inhabitants of Salman-Farsi neighborhood is the security as well as social criterion for inhabitants of Ghafari neighborhood. The physical-leisure activity of Salman-Farsi residents is relatively high, but it is relatively low in Ghaffari neighborhood. The physical-leisure activity of men in Salman-Farsi neighborhood is more than women, but it is almost equal in Ghaffari's neighborhood. The results also showed that there is no significant relation between car ownership and physical-leisure activity in Salman Farsi and Ghaffari neighborhoods. Also there is no significant relation between type of housing and physical-leisure activity in Salman-Fars neighborhood, but there is a relatively significant relation between these two variables in Ghaffari neighborhood.

Space has been involved mind thinkers and scientists from post time until now in the civilization of main the world. Heidegger believes that “reality is spatial and   cannot consider separately human and spatial”. Discussion starts form where that space and local of live sustainable must is goal of every development. Debates refer on the sustainable development roots to in 1950s. Frist serious and base was raised discussion in sustainable 1957 Stockholm conference on the environment protection. Before form 1970s Schumacher used sustainable to concept economic structures, renewable, resources, products and services. As for to is considered attractive in given the importance of sustainable development in the urban contemporary must not separate from development goals, debate sustainable is consideration an important dimension of development. Following have been the rapid changes by develop of the last century caused to seek rapid growth of urbanization disintegration hierarchy between urban and inter-urban that create  in human communities broad inequalities, social, economic as well as environment damage. In this research is studied that Tabriz city from spatial structure and stability that much data gathered from filed survey, statistics, agencies, offices and the statistical center of Iran and……..In many aspects of analyzed environment, economic, social and physical.

Quick growing of cities especially big cities، with traits like great population and activities focus، have had negative affection on urban environment. On the other hand، happening of environmental tension and weakness of global environment basis have been effective on advanced «environment quality» as part of comprehensive concept of «Life quality». in this situation and with respect to comply needs and fundamental motives of human in urban environment have been attended concept of city environment quality in planning، Designing and city engineering literature. The aim of this article is evaluation of urban environmental quality of Narmak neighborhood and determination of responsible factors on quality urban environmental quality of this neighborhood. in this respect have been used for collecting data، library and survey method. The sample size of this project had been 380 cases of Narmak''s residents. It has been used One – Sample T test -and hierarchical multiple regression analysis methods، for evaluating formations. The results of study show that urban environmental quality of Narmak contrary to fact don’t have high quality and the residents of this area are not content from quality of urban environment of it. Among the factors that are under studding just access and road network، finance services and transportation، quality of environmental health and Interior dwelling specifications، have had fine quality. Regarding physical - spatial characteristics، accessibility index has greater impact (β=0. 518). Based on functional - structural specifications، social welfare indicator، have greater value (β=0. 531). Taking into consideration content indicators، environmental health criteria with magnitude of (β=0. 680) respectively possess the highest impact. Interior dwelling specifications in Narmak represent (β=0. 569) respectively and has the greatest impact. This findings in Cognitive - Psychological Perspective show that among the factors which are under studding، some factors have more affection in mental vision correlative with urban environmental quality of Narmak neighborhood between residents. The mental image formed from area، in process of persons'' environment understanding from his or her area، with respect to personal traits of them and environment factors traits، mainly is under affection of some factors in different levels. The important scale of factors is different from one person to another and from one neighborhood to another. The base of this difference is the process of persons'' environment understanding from his or her area.

Environmental values and their effects on residential satisfaction are of great importance in urban housing planning. Residential satisfaction about their residential place، inaddition to physical and mental health of the residents، is effective on quality of life، housing moving rate and prediction of housing demands. Recently، high moving rate has intensified urban sprawl and forming residential clusters which can be considered as an important challenge in urban growth management. Maali-Abad district is a new developed and renewed area at the north west part of Shiraz، which attracted a great number of population due to its main physical changes. Therefore، it is imperative to assess residential environment values in this part of the city and suggest some strategies to augment residential satisfaction. To this end، the data by using a standard questionnaire were collected. 430 participants completed the questionnaires. The residential satisfaction amount was determined by using a five-item Likert spectrum and classification of environmental specifications on the satisfaction rate of residents by using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The reseach findings showed that most residents expressed their great satisfaction with their residential environment. Climate quality، existance of natural landscapes and gardens have important roles in this regard. However، in some parts of the area، especially in high-rise buildings and on the edge of Main Street، residents were unsatisfied with their environment.
