5. Urban Planning:- design and regulation of the uses of space
that focus on the physical form, economic functions, and social
impacts of the urban environment and on the location of
different activities within it.
involving goal setting, data collection and analysis, forecasting,
design, strategic thinking, and public consultation.
Three actors have main role in urban planning
• The decision-makers
• The technicians
• The users
DEFINITION

6. The first recorded description of urban planning
is described in the Epic of Gilgamesh, Designed
cities were characteristic of the Minoan,
Mesopotamian, Harrapan, and Egyptian
civilizations of the third millennium BC.
HISTORY

7. “Hippodamus invented the vision of cities"
Aristotle. therefore he was called the father of
Urban planning 5th century BC.
ideal cities centrally planned in the 15th century,
in 1876 the term urbanization posed by Ildefons
Cerdà due to re construction processes
Classical and Medieval Europe followed by
Renaissance&Enlightenment

8. Planning and architecture went through a paradigm shift at
the turn of the 20th century.
The industrialized cities of the 19th century had grown at a
tremendous rate, with the pace and style of building largely
dictated by private business concerns.
The evils of urban life for the working poor were becoming
increasingly evident as a matter for public concern
Modern urban planning
Halima A Othman , Architect Engineer , Urban Planner , Assistant lecturer, University of Zakho , Petroleum Department

9. Howard wanted to design an alternative to the
overcrowded and polluted industrial cities of
the turn of the century, and his solution
centered on creating smaller “garden cities”
(with 32,000 people each) in the country
linked by canals and transit and set in a
permanent greenbelt.
The Garden City by Ebenezer Howard

10. Le Corbusier’s envisioned building up, not
out. His plan, also known as “Towers in
the Park,” proposed exactly that: numerous
high-rise buildings each surrounded by
green space.”)
Modernism, Le Corbusier’s Radiant City

11. The Street Grid, By Frank Lloyd Wright
The simple, rational street grid has been a
default choice of planners for industrial
centuries, By Frank Lloyd Wright in 1950s
Halima A Othman , Architect Engineer , Urban Planner , Assistant lecturer, University of Zakho , Petroleum Department

12. Planners increasingly talk today about issues involving
transportation, the economy and the environment not at
the scale of communities or cities, but within whole
regions where multiple metros link together.
Principles enforced like:-
• Setback principle so that daylight would still reach the
streets below.
• Transect used by planners as a visual tool to divide
landscapes into multiple uses
The Megaregion

13. Reaction , New Urbanism
By the late 1960s and early 1970s, many planners felt that modernism's
clean lines and lack of human scale sapped vitality from the
community, blaming them for high crime rates and social problem.
Various current movements in urban design seek to create sustainable
urban environments with long-lasting structures, buildings and a great
livability for its inhabitants. The most clearly defined form of walkable
urbanism is known as the Charter of New Urbanism. reducing sprawl
and supporting sustainable transport. Mixing instead of separating uses
Creating Sustainable Places of lasting economic, social, cultural, and
environmental value and The public participation

15. Slum, Informal settlements
Halima A Othman , Architect Engineer , Urban Planner , Assistant lecturer, University of Zakho , Petroleum Department

16. Climate change , The Hockey Stick
“The idea that there’s a connection between the shape of cities and the patterns of settlement and their
climate impact is so powerful.” by climate scientist Michael Mann
Halima A Othman , Architect Engineer , Urban Planner , Assistant lecturer, University of Zakho , Petroleum Department

17. Planners argue that modern lifestyles use too many natural
resources, polluting or destroying ecosystems, increasing
social inequality, creating urban heat islands, and causing
climate change. Many urban planners, therefore, advocate
sustainable cities
The term sustainable development came to represent an
ideal outcome in the sum of urban planning goals.
Sustainability refers to “development that meets the needs of
the present without compromising the ability of future
generations to meet their own needs.”
Halima A Othman , Architect Engineer , Urban Planner , Assistant lecturer, University of Zakho , Petroleum Department
SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

18. 1. Compact
2. Efficient land use and recourses
3. Less automobile use, Better access
4. Less pollution & Less waste
5. Restoration of Ecosystem
6. Good housing and living environments
7. Healthy social ecology
8. Sustainable economy
9. Community participation, Involvement
10. Preservation of local culture & Wisdom
Halima A Othman , Architect Engineer , Urban Planner , Assistant lecturer, University of Zakho , Petroleum Department

19. Planning theory is generally
called procedural because it
generally concerns itself with
the process through which
planning occurs and whether
or not that process is valid,
they relate to public
participation.
1. Rational planning
2. Synoptic planning
3. Participatory Planning
4. Mixed scanning model
5. Advocacy planning
6. Bargaining model

21. URBAN PLANNING PROCCESSES
Halima A Othman , Architect Engineer , Urban Planner , Assistant lecturer, University of Zakho , Petroleum Department

22. Rational planning
The rational planning
movement emphasized the
improvement of the built
environment based on key
spatial factors. Examples of
these factors include:-
• Exposure to direct sunlight
• Movement of vehicular
traffic
• Standardized housing units
• Proximity to green-space
Public participation was first
introduced it focused in four
elements:-
• goals and targets
• Quantitative analysis for env.
• Identify alternative policy
options
• the evaluation of means ends
Synoptic Planning
Halima A Othman , Architect Engineer , Urban Planner , Assistant lecturer, University of Zakho , Petroleum Department

23. Advocacy planning
Public participation is a central
tenet of this model. A plurality
of public interests is assumed,
and the role of planner is
essentially the one who either
advocates directly for
underrepresented groups
directly or encourages them to
become part of the process.
The most interesting part
of this theory of planning
is that makes public
participation the central
dynamic in the decision-
making process. Decisions
are made first and foremost
by the public, and the
planner plays a more
minor role.
Bargaining Planning
Halima A Othman , Architect Engineer , Urban Planner , Assistant lecturer, University of Zakho , Petroleum Department

24. Communicative approach
Participation plays a central role under this model. The model
seeks to include as a broad range of voice to enhance the
debate and negotiation that is supposed to form the core of
actual plan making. In this model, participation is actually
fundamental to the planning process happening. Without the
involvement of concerned interests there is no planning.

URBAN PLANNING ASPECTS
Halima A Othman , Architect Engineer , Urban Planner , Assistant lecturer, University of Zakho , Petroleum Department

26. Aesthetics
The most beautiful are the result of
dense, long lasting systems of
prohibitions and guidance about
building sizes, uses and features.
These allowed substantial freedoms,
yet enforce styles, safety, and often
materials in practical ways. Many
conventional planning techniques
are being repackaged using the
contemporary term SMART
GROWTH.
Cities have often grown onto coastal and
flood plains at risk of floods and storm
surges. Urban planners must consider
these threats. Extreme weather, flood,
secure emergency evacuation routes and
emergency operations centers. Many cities
will also have planned, built safety
features, such as levees, retaining walls,
and shelters.
Some city planners try to control
criminality with designed structures.
Safety and Security
Halima A Othman , Architect Engineer , Urban Planner , Assistant lecturer, University of Zakho , Petroleum Department

27. Infrastructure
Mainly represented by access:-
• clean drinking water
• Swage system
• Disposal system
• Electricity
The Smart Growth seeks to:-
• Improve quality
• Reduce the cost
• Reduce the co2
Environmental protection and
conservation are of utmost importance
to many planning systems across the
world. Not only are the specific effects
of development to be mitigated, but
attempts are made to minimize the
overall effect of development on the
local and global environment. This is
commonly done through the assessment
of Sustainable urban infrastructure and
microclimate.
Environmental factors
Halima A Othman , Architect Engineer , Urban Planner , Assistant lecturer, University of Zakho , Petroleum Department

28. Green spaces
Urban open space is often
appreciated for the recreational
opportunities it provides. Recreation
in urban open space may include
active recreation (such as organized
sports and individual exercise) or
passive recreation, which may
simply entail being in the open
space. Time spent in an urban open
space for recreation offers a reprieve
from the urban environment.
Transport within urbanized areas
presents unique problems. The density
of an urban environment increases
traffic, which can harm businesses and
increase pollution unless properly
managed. Parking space for private
vehicles requires the construction of
large parking garages in high density
areas. This space could often be more
valuable for other development.
Transportation
Halima A Othman , Architect Engineer , Urban Planner , Assistant lecturer, University of Zakho , Petroleum Department

29. PRACTICE OF URBAN PLANNING
New master-planned cities
In the 21st Century, countries in Asia and the Middle-East have embarked on
plans to build brand new large cities. Masdar City, a new city in UAE, cost $18
billion.
Many of these new cities are built to use new technologies such as District cooling
and automatic waste collection in GIFT City or Personal Rapid Transit in Masdar
City.
Saudi Arabia is building 5 new cities to control congestion and sprawl in existing
cities. While India is building 7 new cities to provide space and facilities that are
missing in existing cities, such as cycling paths, parks and public transport within a
10 minute walk to every office and home

and methodologies for a set of indicators to steer and measure
the performance of city services and quality of life.
Quantitative, qualitative or descriptive sets of measurements
and metrics that provide a globally standardized set of
definitions and methodologies.
This International Standard is applicable to any city,
municipality or local government that undertakes to measure its
performance in a comparable and verifiable manner,
irrespective of size and location or level of development

35. kids who cycled or walked to school, rather than traveling
by car or public transportation, performed measurably
better on tasks demanding concentration, such as solving
puzzles, and that the effects lasted for up to four hours
after they got to school. According to the results of a Danish study
