A Morphological Analysis Method-Based Model of Assessing Territories for Underground Parking Lots

Abstract

The paper is devoted to the development and testing of a model that formalizes and supports decision-making process regarding the appropriateness of using territory (geological environment) for urban underground construction. A morphological model of territorial development for underground city planning that combines the influence of structural and functional factors with impact of geological environment, was designed and tested on real construction sites in Kyiv; the modified morphological analysis method was applied for risk estimation of urban development of underground space; systemic characteristics of urban territories were obtained, which show the favorability of a site for underground construction of a parking lot.
