Abstract

The quality of outdoor space in residential areas is of great importance to residents. However, the existing studies predominately focus on a certain types of open space. In addition, there is lack of objective quantification. In this study, a novel approach is developed in order to quantify the quality of outdoor space based on the identification of value dimensions and the classification of the open spaces. Firstly, the residential outdoor space is divided into six types of open space. Secondly, the value weights of different open spaces are calculated through Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) and Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) based on the data from on-site and online questionnaire survey. Finally, the approach developed in this study was tested in high intensity residential areas. Results of this study helps to better understand the quality of outdoor space in high intensity residential development, hence provides useful inputs for the future planning of such developments.

高强度居住区户外空间质量量化研究——以南京市为例

居住区户外空间的质量对居民来说非常重要。然而，现有的研究主要集中在某些类型的开放空间。此外，缺乏客观的量化。本文提出了一种基于价值维度识别和开放空间分类的户外空间质量量化方法。首先，将住宅室外空间划分为六种类型的开放空间。其次，基于现场和在线问卷调查数据，采用结构方程模型（SEM）和层次分析法（AHP）计算不同开放空间的价值权重；最后，本研究开发的方法在高强度住宅区进行了测试。研究结果有助了解高密度住宅发展的户外空间质素，从而为未来规划这类发展提供有用的资料。

期刊介绍： Frontiers of Architectural Research is an international journal that publishes original research papers, review articles, and case studies to promote rapid communication and exchange among scholars, architects, and engineers. This journal introduces and reviews significant and pioneering achievements in the field of architecture research. Subject areas include the primary branches of architecture, such as architectural design and theory, architectural science and technology, urban planning, landscaping architecture, existing building renovation, and architectural heritage conservation. The journal encourages studies based on a rigorous scientific approach and state-of-the-art technology. All published papers reflect original research works and basic theories, models, computing, and design in architecture. High-quality papers addressing the social aspects of architecture are also welcome. This journal is strictly peer-reviewed and accepts only original manuscripts submitted in English.
