Thus, this study aims to enable urban designers to achieve better open urban space designs that ft all humans for better interaction. As a result of this appeared the use of strategic process for open spaces developing concepts, where it can be used to define them to put a positive image and identity for open spaces. In addition, create a set of criteria that help visualize (personalization), the design of an open urban spaces. The conceptual framework will be formulated through a practical study of two examples, one of which is international, which is Congress Park Square located in downtown Portland, and the second is local, which is El Tahrir Square in downtown Cairo in Egypt. The practical results will be combined with field observation and questionnaires. This framework will attempt to provide a methodology for developing the design of urban open spaces . In the end, the research emphasizes the importance of cultural dimensions and verifying the identities of communities so that cities can benefit from cultural dimensions, attract creators, and provide a conceptual framework for arts and cultural planning to achieve sustainable urban development. These dimensions are distinctive architecture, urban structure, cultural festivals, and art galleries. Where the paper aims to point out the unique values related to heritage and the awareness of urban and architectural character.","PeriodicalId":133899,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Architectural Engineering and Urban Research","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121540557","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The increase in HIA requests for impacted WH assets over the last several years indicates that a greater emphasis is being placed on HIA as a useful tool to aid in the management and conservation of cultural heritage against inconsistent development works. However, there was a shortage in the application of a sustainable and integrated impact assessment approach within HIA, which is a key challenge in different HIA projects. Therefore, this paper contributes to addressing the importance of integrating dimensions of sustainable development into the procedures of HIA in accordance with Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) to be more holistic and sustainable. At first, a literature review was conducted to address the different procedures of HIA and how they could be integrated into a more holistic model of impact assessment that considered sustainable development dimensions. Then, AHP analysis was performed with three experts in the heritage conservation field to address the importance of each dimension within the novel model.","PeriodicalId":133899,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Architectural Engineering and Urban Research","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131820209","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Where the urban fabric of those areas affects their ability to attract large numbers of visitors and, consequently, the economic return to them. This is because the traffic path of visitors is affected by the spatial properties of the urban fabric, which is reflected in the turnout and the length of the visit period, where the turnout of users is one of the most important criteria that shows strengths and the weakness of the region, and thus help in limiting the problems of those regions and developing them in a way that ensures the preservation of the historical. The research uses the space syntax theory to find out the spatial properties of the area under study and determine its impact on the behavior of visitors by converting the spatial properties into a quantitative form that helps in limiting the spatial problems and better identifying the solution proposals through the use of the depth map program. The research focused on studying the characteristics of semi-separate historical areas, which are characterized by an independent fabric with clear characteristics and chose the area of Salah El-Din Castle as one of the distinguished models architecturally, planning and historically, with the aim of identifying the problems and characteristics of semi-separate historical areas that affect the efficiency of the visit.","PeriodicalId":133899,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Architectural Engineering and Urban Research","volume":"3 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133755056","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
