Sustainable Architecture Analyses of Walls in Miyaneh Village Houses, Iran
Even though so many efforts have been taken to
renovate and renew the architecture of Miyaneh villages in cold and
dry regions of Iran-s northwest, these efforts failed due to lack of
significant study and ignoring the past and sustainable history of
those villages. Considering the overpopulation of Iran-s villages as
well as the importance in preventing their immigration to cities,
recognizing village architecture and its construction technology is of
great significance to attain sustainable residence in villages. As the
only vertical surface in the space, wall possesses its unique special
characteristics, and it is also a very important architectural element
able to provide the immunity and comfort space for the residents.
This article analyzes the characteristics of this vertical element, main
types of adobe and stone walls, locally constructed technologies,
implementation, the elements forming the walls in the frame of
village house typology of Miyaneh, which has the most villages in
East Azerbaijan, based on sustainable architectural construction
materials of walls.
