Improving Social Interaction In Vertical Housing, Lubna A. Kadhim, Mufeed Ehsan Shok
Iraqi Journal of Architecture and Planning
Iraq is witnessing an increasing population growth and an influx of migration from the countryside to the city. With the lack of urban lands, vertical housing has become the final solution to this problem. However, until recently, Iraqis have rejected vertical housing, and perhaps the most important reasons are social reasons.

Topological Characteristics Of An Architectural Product, Ahmed Maher Rashid, Abdullah Saadoon Salman Almaamoori
Iraqi Journal of Architecture and Planning
Topology or spatial science is one of the branches of modern mathematics that cast a shadow over various cognitive sciences, including architecture, as it began to overgrow in the contemporary digital age to make room for more creativity and structural design and implementation capabilities. Yet, the characteristics of this concept are still uncommon in the architectural community and the previous studies that dealt with it in fragmentary and separate concepts. Accordingly, the research problem is “the ambiguity of knowledge about the topological characteristics of contemporary architectural products.” The research seeks to form a comprehensive theoretical framework on the topological characteristics …
Design Determinants Of Discrete Digital Surfaces, Ali Mohsen Jaafar Al-Khafaji, Shahad Alaa Soud
Design Determinants Of Discrete Digital Surfaces, Ali Mohsen Jaafar Al-Khafaji, Shahad Alaa Soud
Iraqi Journal of Architecture and Planning
The emergence of many free structures in contemporary architecture and the transformation in aesthetics toward complex curved and folded shapes has led to a search for computer-aided design and geometric manipulations using discrete surfaces, which contributed to the creation of complex architectural surfaces that are both simple and economical at the same time. However, it is difficult to achieve such surfaces because of the complexity of representing them in an applicable and executable engineering body , and the hardship of studying and representing them structurally for they need a set of special engineering programs to obtain the required structural strength. …
