چکیده مقاله :
The transition from a car-driven city to a human city based on a pedestrian lifestyle is one of the most important urban planning challenges today, especially in countries where their citizens tend to use cars due to cheaper fuel prices. Therefore, locating and feasibility study of creating pedestrian axes is one of the most important strategies and actions in modern urban planning. Since Tehran has heavy traffic and is one of the most polluted metropolises in the world, this issue becomes more important and necessary. This study aims to examine the arrangement of physical components of space in the reproduction of urban pedestrian axes based on social topography. This analysis was performed on the Farahzad to the Imamzadeh Ainali-Zeinali axis in Tehran. During this analysis, through a quantitative approach and based on deductive reasoning, the data was gathered using survey techniques and the correlation coefficient of the variables has been analyzed. In this respect, the cultural Farahzad to Imamzadeh Ainali-Zeinali axis as a field study platform was surveyed. The research area was examined based on the parameters of social topography: social and economic, accessibility and traffic and physical-spatial status. The statistical population in this research comprises 350 users and citizens of Tehran, which cross the Farahzad pedestrian axis to Imamzadeh Ainali-Zeinali in a day. A simple random method was employed to pick a sample from the studied population in this research. Utilizing the Cochran sampling formula, the sample size was 183, which grew to 200 for higher precision. Fifty-five variables of social topography development in space were identified and summed into nine factors based on internal correlations. That is, in this case, the promotion of social topography is chiefly the outcome of the performance of these determinants, justifying 90.23% of the social topography development in space. On this axis, the juxtaposition of facilities for entertainment, for religious activities and social presence, can play the most significant role in improving the quality of the environment for all residents.
