Abstract

Iranian townscapes are facing big problems at micro and macro levels. At the macro level, neglecting the townscapes during the physical transformations of cities has caused visual disorder and ugliness. At the micro level, three problems including the extensions to buildings, façade deteriorations, and dissonant boards have been degrading the quality of the townscapes. To address the problems at the macro level, those who are in charge of municipalities in Iran need to take three actions: trimming out the extensions, renovation, and rearrangement.
Consideration of some projects in Tehran’s beautification organization indicates Delivery system of these projects is a key factor which needs contemplation. Different methods have caused different results. In this article, By identifying and analyzing risks related to Tehran’s Beautifications organizations enhancing projects and specially Ferdowsi project which we were engaged directly, and converging them by Delphi method, we tried to extracts the most optimized delivery system. The main finding is that for proper execution and preventing any misunderstanding by supervising organizations, all regulations, processes, and disciplines of an ordinary construction project must be observed but some tailoring is needed to meet complexities of these projects and respond properly to risks. Accuracy of design and details, observing social dimension and HSE guidelines are very important too.
