Research On The Space Morphology Of Xiagang District Based On Space Syntax Analysis

The old town with history and culture is the result of accumulation and precipitation under the interaction between material space and social factors in the process of urban development,and its spatial form has its inherent characteristics and laws.In the past,the research on the old town focused on either the structure or the culture aspect of the sites.However their relationship between the excavation of structure and social relations is less.Based on the traditional research methods and spatial syntax analysis,this paper studies the spatial form of the Xiagang District.Through the analysis of the syntactic variables and spatial organization,functional structure,and behavioral activities,this paper not only reveals the social logic implied behind the formation of spatial form,but also provides data support and suggestion for the protection and renovation of Xiagang District.Based on the analysis of the spatial evolution of the Xiagang District,it is found that the integration core of the site increasing the scale,improving the form of the core and centrality;At the same time the future integration core will become stronger and bigger;We found the spatial pattern of Xiagang District is highly correlated with the change of social function center;Reveal the influence of spatial configuration on the distribution of activities.Based on the spatial form analysis of the road in Xiagang District,we found that the complex road network system is the main reason for the lower comprehensibility of the Xiagang District.The syntactic variables are highly correlated with the traffic volume,proves the Space Syntax is a reasonable tool for analyzing the space morphology of Xiagang District.The rationality of the form;the similarity between the national road and the university route in the different spatial configuration of the differences lead to the distribution of behavioral activities.Based on the space form analysis of node in Xiagang District,the function of the region is configured by referring to the syntactic analysis result,the optimization suggestions according to the different types of node space are put forward.Finally,the suggestions for the reconstruction of the site is provided from the following aspect:the overall space,road space and node space of the Xiagang District:(1)The University road and the surrounding area as the core of the development zone;The spatial function can be configured with reference to the results of the syntactic analysis;(2)Optimization of road space can be planned traditional cultural experience routes,improve road accessibility;Optimize the district function configuration,enhance the road space vitality.(3)Established a method of node space evaluation and a set of spatial classification and optimization system;The reconstruction of the node should combined with regional culture.
