Abstract:It is necessary to search for three-dimensional index to evaluate the threedimensional development of the public space in residential community with high-rise and high density. The paper suggests utilize “three-dimensional open space ratio”, which takes the open air spaces into account according to a certain ratio to encourage the supply of open space. Since the residential greening effect has not been paid enough attention, the paper suggests use “green looking ratio” and “three-dimensional living vegetation volume ratio” to evaluate greening structure in residential community with high-rise and high density. Also, a living vegetation volume calculation model is set up to enhance the operability of indexes. The three-dimensional indexes make the evaluation and control of residential community planning adapt to the trend of three-dimensional development, and provide new approaches for improving high-rise and high-density residential environment.
