Abstract:“Station-City Synergy” with the center of the rail transit station intensive development area of the city center, has gradually become the important structure characteristics of the high-speed development of domestic cities. This paper considers a regional effect of intensive development through “station integration ability”, and mainly investigates through rail-transit complex that is directly connected with the rail station. In this paper,?the?core?concept?of?“space?performance”?is?suggested,?its?focuses?of?“space?efficiency”? and “space quality” are studied empirically. The study adopts the method of case analysis and field?investigation?combined?with?data?collected?through?field?experiment?comparison,?so?as?to sum?up?the?performance?characteristics?of?the?station?integration?effect?and?influence?factors of Station-City Synergy development for more cities and areas to provide the theory references and development basis.

Abstract:Qualitative case study method is used to study a typical high-rise residential neighborhood between urban and rural area of a large city in the south of Jiangsu Province. The analysis of crime data provided by the government shows that the crime distribution has obvious spatial clusters. Then, based on the CPTED theory framework, the environmental characteristics of the crime hotspots are analyzed. Combining interviews with residents, managers and other subjects, factors affecting theft crime are explored. The findings show that the hotspots of crime are characterized by lack of territoriality, surveillance, access control, environmental maintenance, target hardening and low level of activity. Insufficient consideration of crime prevention during environmental design and lack of environmental protection and management provide the possible conditions for criminal behavior. The divergences between residents’ cognition of environmental safety and actual crime location, as well?as?the?game?of?interest?among?different?subjects?in?the?neighborhood,?make?it?difficult?for the environment reform to prevent crime. Finally, optimizing suggestions on crime prevention in neighborhoods are put forward, and its universal adaptability is discussed.

Abstract:The selection of evaluation indicators based on the sensitivity of environmental parameters is an important technical factor in ensuring the validity of Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE). In this study, the controlled study of field test and subjective evaluation to investigate the typical plan and habitable space of seven Guangzhou affordable housing units are used, and obtaines 89 valid measured data and 192 subjective evaluation questionnaire data collecting from Households. POE survey results reflect that the air quality and the natural lighting of the habitable space of typical affordable housing in Guangzhou are good, and the ventilation quality is very well. The tested environmental noise is on the whole slightly higher than the standard value; hot and humid environment, the dissatisfaction rate of thermal environment is relatively high. Based on the statistical test of the 89 subjective and objective matching survey data, by ROC curve analysis and Binary Logistic regression analysis, the subjective sensitivity of important indoor environmental indicators are sorted like this: temperature> humidity> natural lighting illumination> PM2.5, but the actual value of environmental noise indicators needs to be further validated.

Abstract:This paper takes unspecialized public activity spaces in elderly care institutions as research object. Through a comparative analysis of practical utilization between scattered public spaces and centralized public spaces in two super large-scaled elderly care institutions in Beijing, characteristics of behaviors respectively of self-cared, device- aided and nursing-cared elderly are identified; and by analyzing factors influential to the utilization of public spaces, including physical environment, location, spatial pattern and dimension of public spaces, and the distance from public spaces to living rooms, user’s needs in spaces are clarified. On this basis, suggestions on public space designing for elderly care institutions are put forward.

Abstract:China’s unique family planning policy has led to the emergence of “421” and “422” family structure, which makes the proportion of the elderly population continue to increase, and the seriousness of the pension problem continue to intensify. At the same time, the problems in early childhood education brought about by the phenomenon of few-generating of family structure cannot be underestimated. But paradoxically, welfare facilities of old-age care and?child-care?in?the?community?are?extremely?deficient,?and?the?use?of?existing?facilities?is worrying. This paper focuses on the problems of old-age care and child-care existing in “421” and “422” family structure emerging from the domestic fertility policy, and puts forward the design idea of welfare facilities of the integrated welfare facilities for elderly and children in the community.

Abstract:This paper aims to expound the basic theory of the institutional living environment for the elderly and discuss the related design method based on the field surveys and case studies.

From the investigation of the previous students and the results of the coursework, the method has a significant effect on improving the students’ learning motivation and deepening their mastery of knowledge.

Abstract:China is undergoing tremendous urbanization and construction in both urban and rural areas. The problem lies in the lack of building environmental assessment methods for rural areas while most these methods are developed only for urban areas. This study reviews the current situation and issues relating to the rural development and construction of China and the theory of sustainable rural development. Several existing building environmental assessment methods in China and other countries are analyzed to identify the gap in their application in rural China. This study provides a series of suggestions for the development of sustainability assessment methods for rural building environments

Abstract:Under the lighting effect, the building facade during the night can highlight the charm and emotion different from that of the daytime. The comfortable and proper lighting can not?only?reflect?the?unique?characteristics?of?the?building?but?also?enhance?the?cultural?essence and emotional expression. However, the lighting of most buildings has not been designed properly at present, thus leading to the lack of original feature and essence of the building. Hence, it is important to research the lighting of building facade with the purpose of reacting to the inherent characteristics of the building. Starting from the existing building style in the city, this paper has summarized the facade features of various buildings. After researching the lighting effect of different lighting expression features, this paper has also made a summary of the optimum lighting mode suited to different facade features.

Abstract:Due to geographical location and natural environmental constraints, the ecologically fragile areas are faced with limited land resources, fragile ecosystems, backward economic development, especially the slow process of urbanization. The new urbanization planning requires re-examining urbanization from the new perspective of ecological civilization policy and non-industrial background. This paper, taking Huining County for example, combined with the characteristics of the ecologically fragile areas, proposes the new urbanization approach including tourism oriented industrial transformation, the environment support mode based on tourism development and travel coordination for the urban and rural tourist-oriented traction in order to promote the sustainable urbanization development of the ecologically fragile areas.

Abstract:in the context of eco-civilization, cities and towns in Southwest China are facing deadlines of both ecology and development. This thesis is to discuss the planning strategies of southwest mountainous cities and towns under eco-constraints, based on recognition of the characters of resource and environment in this area and urban planning practice in Chongqing and Guizhou province. It proposes to understand, respect and adapt natural eco- constraints and establish sustainable-oriented spatial regulation planning system. Also, it suggests evaluating land use and ecological environment limitation, coordinating ecology- industry, ecology-population and ecology-city, as well as enhancing eco-space control and improving building-space layout of those cities and towns.

Abstract:In the process of rapid urbanization, the pace of urbanization has failed to be improved and inherited. On the contrary, the speed of destruction of human settlements in small cities has been accelerated, and the degree of damage has been aggravated. The ecological environment of small towns has been seriously deteriorated, and the regional development has been seriously affected limit. The study on the synergistic optimization of the architectural style of small towns in Xihaigu area of Ningxia not only helps to alleviate the contradiction between human settlements in Ningxia, but also provides references for the construction of small towns in northwest China. This paper studies the collaborative research framework of the small town style from three aspects, and tries to establish the suitable construction mode of the small town building style, and promotes it through the establishment of the architectural style control guideline.

Abstract:With the improvement of the importance of the evacuation of primary and secondary school students, in order to quickly understand the effective disaster area of a school and its capacity to carry the disaster population, according to China's primary and secondary school campus planning and design standards ,the area and the proportion of land use in different primary and secondary schools are calculated to obtain the coefficient of effective disaster area in primary and secondary school campus outdoor space as disaster prevention space. This paper analyzes the examples of the primary and secondary schools in Gengma, Jianchuan and Lvchun County, and analyzes the reasons of the deviation between the instance in the standard area and the disaster area. The main reason is that the available green area is too small and the proportion of the sports area is small, on the proportion of building area is too large.

Abstract:Both Funing and Sheyang County of Yancheng experienced the double disasters of large hail and tornadoes on the afternoon of June 23, 2016. Now, post- disaster reconstruction has become top priority. The pressure on reconstruction requires planning farmhouse rebuilding at first and then other plans. Participating in post-disaster survey and data compilation and carrying out specific analysis on the disaster situation forms the research base. This information will help to rebuild domestic and international experience and interpretation of the relevant policies, laws, and to control the direction of the reconstruction plan. From the characteristics of tornado damage and this disaster, rural residences were destroyed, and the farmers living in the affected areas outlined existing defects and summed up the problem of anti-tornado measures. For the above summary analysis of the problem, the thesis discussed the planning of building farmhouses and tried to develop a planning mode after tornado disasters, which would provide some practical advice for futur reference of reconstruction planning.
