Compatibility Survey of Detached and Apartment Residential Complexes Patternin Sahand New Town

This paper surveys the compatibility of detached and apartment complexes pattern in Sahand new town. This cross-sectional research was done in 2009-2010 period. Type of sampling used in this research was simple random sampling, 124 people of residents were participated into this study. After collecting needed information, questionnaires were coded. All of gathered information for this study was analyzed by SPSS19.The results indicated that there is a difference between these variables-job (p=0.003), period of habitation (p=0.000), dimensions of accommodation (p=0.003) and satisfaction of residential flat- and precedence of detached and apartment complexes pattern (Mann-Whitney U=1406.5, p=0.024).The precedence difference between the quality of detached and apartment complexes pattern was meaningful statistically. Also the average precedence of apartment complexes was more than detached ones (15.804±87.516 to 604±90.216). Even though there wasn’t any statistical difference between precedence of first aim-physical and spatial organization-in both patterns, there was meaningful difference between precedence of second aim-Plant and Equipment-in both patterns and also difference between precedence of third aim-traffic and accessibility (p=0.049) (p=0.03). So, if the main objectives are real understanding of life and considering the dweller’s favorites and needs, the programmer should pay more attention to development pattern of common apartments. In addition, to develop detached complexes we should consider management, control, plant, equipment, traffic and access.
