Planning of Disaster Prevention Space System Based on Urban Morphology - Take Suzhou Old Urban Area as an Example

Abstract:

Urban morphology analysis is the basis of cognition of city and making plan of disaster prevention space system. According to urban morphology of Suzhou old urban area of the double chessboard of River Street parallel and a moat surround the city, explores the construction of prevention space system combined with urban morphology: disaster prevention units are based on neighborhood in the old area and all kinds of space are organized to form order disaster prevention space system. Exploiting new function of the moat waterfront outside the old area, enhance the capabilities to form a " Resilient function" waterfront space; strengthen the construction of land and water secure channel, ensure that evacuation channels are unblocked in disaster. Combine three different levels of disaster prevention space to construct disaster prevention space systems of Suzhou old urban area. It can strengthen the efficiency of Suzhou comprehensive urban disaster prevention.
