Research On The Influence Of Commercial Space On Waiting Space In The Giant Railroad

Railway carries a large number of long-haul passenger transportation in our country. In recent years, with continuous development of railway industry in China, passenger railway station commercial trend and complex development model in a large passenger railway has been the development direction. Significant changes have been taken place in spatial organization of passenger railway station building.The indoor function of the railway is gradually diversified. Waiting space is not only a place that the passengers go though, but also the place need to satisfy the passenger’s double use of psychological and physical needs during waiting time. To construct a railway waiting place with commercial service is a way to bright convenience and rich waiting experience to the passengers. At the same time commercial service can increase the service efficiency of the waiting space. Above all, it is the efficient path to realize the economic interests of the railway station. But, commercialization of waiting space also brought some problems. Such as excessive commercial space invades waiting space. As a result of that, the route is affected and waiting environment is destroyed.This paper researched on the spatial arrangement and influence factors in the waiting space of the giant railroad. At the same time it studied the types and the layout pattern of the commercial space. Combined with field investigation to Beijing railway station which main function is waiting and Beijing south railway station which united waiting and pass found many effects and problems of the relationship of commercial space and waiting space in the giant railroad. Such as the composition of function, commercial pattern and the passenger demand, spatial arrangement, streamline organization, guidance and comfortable experience. Discussing the forming reason and the development tendency. Trying to put forward the proposal from the following aspects. Including the kinds, layout, guidance, and humanization of the commercial space. Ultimate aim is to seek the commercial types and space patterns that really suitable for the situation of China in the railway waiting space.
