| Abstract | ||
| Urbanism is the human living environment and the place for human activities. It has a continuous series of interactions with people. In general, urbanism is hard to test and evaluate before construction, and as the decades pass, which creates social and physical impacts that consume resources, energy, and time to fix. By the end of the seventies the last century, Bill Hillier presented the space syntax theory for urbanism forecasting as a simulation method for urban's present and past depending on the city’s self-organization. This paper examines the new administrative capital of Egypt, which occupies 170000 acres and is one of the ambitious national urban projects. It depends on the natural movement theory and space syntax techniques (integration and choice measures) and applies DepthmapX software to predict the city. The results show contradictions between the current plan and the socio-spatial expectations of the city, in the economic centers’ locations and the priority roads for movement. Hence, the author proposed a model to modify the road network. Compared to the current situation, the model results document a social-spatial consensus. | ||
