The Effect of Spatial Arrangement of High-Rise Buildings on Improving the Quality of Life for Residents (Case Study of District 9 of Mashhad Municipality)

Today, urban development has led to the use of dense and compact urban land, the impact of which on the quality of urban environments is very important. As a result, one of the methods used in urban design is the space layout method, which to some extent has the ability to measure and analyze urban spaces in the present and future. The purpose of this study is the effect of spatial arrangement of high-rise buildings in improving the quality of life of residents in District 9 of Mashhad Municipality. The research method is applied in terms of purpose and survey nature and is based on quantitative methods in data analysis. In this regard, in order to collect data, library studies, documentary research, scientific articles and databases of urban development projects have been used. The data was simulated using UCL Depthmap and ArcGIS Desktop 10.8 software. The results show that in region 9, there are 3 types of typology (checkered-organic and lattice) that checkered texture has a better quality level than the other two types to provide services to citizens. Therefore, by knowing the type of texture arrangement, the quality level of the area can be examined, and according to a set of quality indicators, it can be decided whether or not to create tall buildings.
