density and its effects on the spatial transformation of the contemporary city: five typologies to understand residential densification in santiago metropolitan area |
| description |
This work seeks to characterize various expressions of the intensive residential densification process in the Metropolitan Area of Santiago (AMS), in order to objectify the discussion about its impact on the urban space. The verticality associated with intensive residential densification transforms the morphology of the urban fabric, more precisely, reconfigures the structure of the block that is, the arrangement of lots, circulation and buildings. While urban morphology constitutes a conditioning factor of the densification process, the densification process transforms the urban space with varying degrees of increase, particular spatial manifestations and performance parameters of the urban form. Consequently, residential densification corresponds to a phenomenon that extends differently in the AMS. Since the relationship between density and urban form is highly complex, to characterize intensive residential densification, density is related to other parameters of urban form, such as buildability, land coverage and diversity of uses.This work addresses residential densification through the analysis and parameterization of the urban form of 16 fragments of 25 hectares that have been densified since the decade of 1990. We propose five types of densification, which allow a better understanding of what properties and spatial variables characterize them: 1) hyperdensification that reconfigures the traditional urban fabric; 2) densification of the peri-central urban fabric with a variety of uses; 3) densification of the residential peri-central urban fabric; 4) densification with a tendency to compactness and 5) monofunctional densification of the industrial block. |

Este trabajo busca caracterizar diversas expresiones del proceso de densificación residencial intensiva en el Área Metropolitana de Santiago (AMS), de manera de objetivar la discusión en torno al impacto de dicho proceso en el espacio urbano. La verticalización asociada a la densificación residencial intensiva transforma la morfología del tejido urbano, más precisamente, reconfigura la estructura de la manzana, esto es, la ordenación de lotes, circulaciones y edificios. Mientras la morfología urbana constituye un factor condicionante del proceso de densificación, el mismo proceso transforma el espacio urbano con distintos grados de incrementalidad, particulares manifestaciones espaciales y parámetros de desempeño de la forma urbana. Consecuentemente, la densificación residencial corresponde a un fenómeno que se extiende diferenciadamente en el AMS. Dado que la relación entre densidad y forma urbana es altamente compleja, para caracterizar la densificación residencial intensiva, la densidad se relaciona con otros parámetros de la forma urbana, tales como edificabilidad, ocupación de suelo y diversidad de usos.Este trabajo aborda la densificación residencial mediante el análisis y parametrización de la forma urbana de 16 fragmentos de 25 ha que evidencian procesos de densificación residencial a partir de 1990. Se proponen cinco tipologías de densificación, las cuales permiten avanzar hacia una mejor comprensión del fenómeno, y la interpretación de qué propiedades y variables espaciales las caracterizan: 1) hiperdensificación que reconfigura el tejido urbano tradicional; 2) densificación del tejido urbano pericentral con diversidad de usos, 3) densificación del tejido urbano pericentral residencial; 4) densificación con tendencia a la compacidad; y 5) densificación monofuncional de la manzana industrial.
