Abstract: With the development of urban area, its scale and aggregation effected continue to increase. Besides, the increase in land prices and building density, functional needs and so on make great efforts in forcing to develop the underground space which provides the functions such as urban transportation, shopping, culture, entertainment ,catering and so on. Taking the main city of Nanjing as example, the paper discusses the problems and current situation, the relationship between underground space and ground space in terms of requirements and space layout, proposes the requirements and layout of underground space should meet the scarcity of functional layout of the ground above.

Abstract: On the background of rapid urbanization in China, the peasants in urban fringe have become a special group because of losing land. The long-term natural agriculture economy was broken during the urbanization process, their habitat model therefore has also changed from traditional dispersed communities into "dismantling villages and setting up urban communities", which is the key field of theoretical research of current urban planning. This paper taking Hubin Community, the new "dismantling villages and setting up urban communities community" in the new zone of Wuhan, as the object of study, analyzes the changes of the peasants’ living spaces after "dismantling villages and setting up urban communities" by means of field research and statistical analysis method. And hoping this can offer references to the planning of relevant region.

Abstract: With the development of city urbanization, modern city scale continues to expand, the density of population and economic is higher and higher, urbanization brought the social progress of the city,in the mean time,it also make the city more vulnerable in face of disaster. Taking Xi'an city as an example, analyzing calamity prevention ability of xian current park quantitative and qualitative based on GIS, Combining population data we got some results and proposed improvement measure. Finally, we analysed fire,medical and police resources around urban park, which offer strong support for calamity relief when calamity occurs.

Abstract: Strategic resources can promote urban development (especially urban new district) greatly, taking Dalian Airport district planning as an example, analyzing the pulling function of 4 type regional strategic resources for regional development, then, scientific layout and reasonable plan, finally, it being a New sea coast region of industry and city fusion, harmony between people and nature.

Abstract: The traditional style is an important part of the cultural heritage in the historical and cultural towns and villages in our country, which functions as a bridge between history and reality. It is a typical representative of extending history and reflecting the folk culture, also is the product of human civilization and the witness of China city development. At the same time, with the development of the ages, the traditional scenes develop and change with time. All this has also formed unique characteristics of the protection to the traditional scenes. In this paper, the author proposes a series of corresponding counter measures through caring on a more comprehensive analysis to traditional style protection of the historic villages and towns.

Abstract: The contents of space design for urban commercial district in cold areas were analyzed, that include spatial scales, space environment, space node, space interface, linear space etc. On the basis of analysis and survey, the problems of spatial scales, environmental facilities, space form, interface processing, transportation organizations and etc. which exist in the space design were analyzed. Finally, the optimization countermeasures of space design are proposed, which include layout, organization of traffic stream line, spatial form, characteristic expression, environmental design and other aspects of commercial district in cold areas.

Abstract: This paper discusses cultural identity and continuity of historic district based on the principle of authenticity in conservation field. The objective is to find out appropriate solutions for a historic district and to keep its special cultural value. It develops corresponding analysis in both physical aspects and cultural aspects, emphasizing the living feature of a historic district. The author advocates that it is significant to keep local residents living in the district since they are the cultural carriers and the core to conserve their cultural identity.

Abstract: The purpose of this research is to develop an Urban Design Competition Proposals Evaluation System (UDCPES) based on the sustainability assessment at area scale, together with the evaluation process for China. The research studied the status quo and designed the evaluation process. And as core part of the research, UDCPES for an urban brownfield redevelopment design competition are established. Analysis of existing sustainability assessment tools for area scale and AHP method are applied here to define the evaluation items and the weighting system. The research adopted the concepts of sustainability assessment in urban competition proposals evaluation. Such an evaluation process and system can assist the decision maker evaluate urban design proposals more comprehensively and rationally than the traditional way, and easier to find the best one.

Abstract: In the process of integrating village migration in coal mining areas, the selection of new site of village is important. In this paper, by using AHP and grey correlation of knowledge, combining with the principle of site selection, through the analysis of actual production in Longgu mine, reasonable location method is obtained.

Abstract: Tianjin Metro Line 1 opened to traffic in June 2006 and has now been in operation for seven years. During this time, Tianjin has grown and developed rapidly, and is facing land use, construction, and traffic challenges. This paper takes 20 stations along Tianjin Metro Line 1 as its research objects, and engages in field research and collection of essential materials and data to analyze the relationship between land use, development, and construction near the stations of Tianjin Metro Line 1 on the one hand and passenger flow volume on the other. On this basis, it offers suggestions for the further development of Tianjins rail network, including effective land utility mode and important facilities around the rail station that can increase passenger flow volume, improve land value and promote mutually benign development of both rail traffic and urban land.
