Abstract :

Planningthe old texture of cities is the revitalization or reconstruction of  the core of the city that most of the time includes dense Disney narrow and twisting streets and alleys. Historic and old textures of Iran’s cities that in the most cases construct basic and elementary center of those cities are cultural and historic heritage of those cities, and their conservation, physical and functional rehabilitation is necessary and unavoidable. On the hand, most of these textures, as the time passed and unsuitable conservation and attention is in progress, are obliterated from view point of physical and functional dimension. Knowledge of physical and functional situation of these fabrics in order to deploy conservation planning and management, is one of the important and elementary actions to take. Old texture of Torghabeh city is about 20 hectare that has been analyzed and assessed according to physical characters in this study. In this research, the library-based and field-based data were collected and analyzed using quantitative analytic and descriptive methods such as frequency tables, proportion and percentage tables, graphs and classification methods.  The  results is presented in form of classification maps. Results of this research show that firstly, physical condition of this texture’s districts is variable; secondly, every district has different situation from view point of any indicator; thirdly, generally and with respect to all the mentioned physical characteristics, no one of historic fabric’s districts have suitable situation.
