Abstract :

In the design and construction of traditional and indigenous buildings, the use of renewable energies such as airflow, sunlight and heat in construction has been considered by the builders. It has also been tried to have the least negative impact on the environment. The main question of the research is what are the basics of designing residential buildings compatible with cold and mountainous climates in Tabriz metropolitan from the physical-identity aspect? In this study, descriptive-analytical and field methods were used, Delphi tools and techniques were used in the surveys to answer research questions, and for statistical conclusions and purpose-based documentation using SPSS software. 6 persons will be in the form of 22 Ph.D. students, 6 Architects professors, 22 residents of residential complexes which will be extracted and presented based on statistical methods. Cronbach's alpha was used for reliability of the questions. The purpose of the present study is to investigate the physical and identity components of the model by overlapping the indices of the model in addition to the necessary climatic studies to explain the models and patterns of this adaptation in cold and mountainous regions of Iran. The results show that there is a positive and significant relationship between the spatial domination subgroup (communication and joints) with the physical dimension as well as the identity dimension. There is a positive and significant relationship between sub-indices of open space, physical domination and contrast and differentiation with physical dimension.
