INDUSTRIALIZATION AND URBAN TRANSFORMATION

The industrial revolution was the transition to new manufacturing processes in Great Britain, continental Europe, and the united states during the period of the late 18 century and early 19 century.
• Water and steampowered mechanical manufacturing facilities
• Electrical powered mass production based on division of labor
• Electronics and it achieve further automation of manufacturing
• Based on cyber physical system
• Increased production and higher demand for raw materials.
• Growth of worldwide trade.
• The exploitation of mineral resources.
• Highly developed banking and investment system.
• Increase in population of cities
• Improved standard of living
• Creation of new jobs.
• Encouragement of technological progress
• Harsh conditions for laborers
• Development of new raw materials for construction, mainly steel
• Development of machinery tools and advancement of new construction technology
• Development of transportation systems, roads, bridges, railways, etc.
• The changes that took place by modernist design methods, were created after the Second World War.
• The appearance of modern cities.
• Flexible and compact spaces, connected with each other, allowed cities to adapt to changing economical and external factors which lead to the creation of composite city urban spaces.
• Forced changes in urban planning in most European cities.
Population growth is the main factor for the expansion of a city as physical growth. A predictable land use pattern results from the interplay of these factors which create models that describe and simplify relationships among social, economic, and geographic factors that describes the pattern of a city and how it evolved.
Historical old towns were mainly considered as the basis for the urbanization of new areas around them representing new concepts of space arrangement and usage of natural resources.
• Agriculture city (17th century) into the industrial city (19th century).
• In the first half of the 19th century, the settlement was transformed into a craftsman town.
• New City district was created in symmetrical, classicist style with a geometrical rectangle grid of craftsman plots composed of 22x280m long plots.
• enlarge the city area in order to locate new craftsman houses and establish the first industrial plants.
• isolation of the old historical township center.
• Only the new planned settlement has got its own town trading squares.
• City evolution led to social and structural divisions, which caused the increasing discrepancy between the old and new towns.
• The river border is used for the separation between the old town and the new city and also provides an advantage for production and manufacturing.
Disadvantage of too rapid development
• many structural, spatial, and social difficulties.
• The city was built as a system of factory buildings created in the new inner city, while the old town was gradually suburbanizing.
• The whole city became an area of mixed industrial and residential use.
• Development of emerging urban buildings.
• Beginning in the early 1900s, Camden was a prosperous industrial city.
• Amboy Railroad opened in 1834 and helped to spur an increase in population, Camden quickly became an industrialized city.
• In 10 years 1860 to 1870 no of the factories grew to 125.
• Population rise from 20000 to 116000 between 1870 to 1920.
• Mainly immigrants were German, British, Irish, African Americans and Italian.
• The ethnic character of Camden changed radically between these decades, and immigrants formed their communities within Camden.
• They develop different buildings/places within Camden. Like churches, the introduction of different architecture
• Italian immigrants have significant influences on social and political organizations
Decentralized of industries
• Camden manufacturers began gradually closing their factories and moving out of the city.
• The new work shipbuilding cooperation dropped abruptly from a height of 47000 during the war and shut down entirely.
• Immediately Camden was dramatically affected by its economic and social position with loss of jobs.
Impacts
• Sharps decline in population numbers.
• Civic unrest and crime became common.
• The unemployment rate was more than twice the state average
• Almost half of Camden’s inhabitants lived below the poverty line.
• row houses built for workers in the 1930s that were architecturally unique were all abandoned or torn down.
• The highest crime rate in the united states in 2012 Camden had 2500 violent crimes for every 10000 people which is 560 percent higher than the national average.
• This study first aimed to momentarily concentrate on the revolutionary process of industrialization and its effect on the development of cities to give areas of strength for the conversation about the idea of urban regeneration.
• It examined how ecological, social, and monetary examples of cities changed after the development of industrialization.
• Decentralized industrial facilities may also lead to urban decay in the city.
• This research explained that industrialization is a major activity that transforms the urban structure of cities and improper and unmanaged industrial placement make serious damage to cities.
• So sustainable urban restoration is a key function to installing effective industrial facilities in the city without economic downfall and environmental degradation
