| Severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) emerged in southern China inNovember 2002 and spread rapidly along international air routes in early 2003. Asiancountries had the most cases (7,782) and deaths (729).This fast-spread calamity influenced our society seriously. My thesis tries toanalyze the physical approaches of the spread of epidemic diseases in buildings andresidential areas ,and to find out the architectural methods to prevent or control them.The final thesis consists of the following three parts: 1 The history and developmentof architectural design and planning methods to prevent and control the spread ofepidemic disease.2) Analysis of the design methods of building and residential areasin details based on theoretical analysis and questionnaire investigation.3) conclusionswere drawn and predicted the future development of this research subject.During my research I studied system of synthetic assessment of inhabitationareas and environmental impact assessment on planning level. How to applythese standards and criterions to practice seems to be much more difficult than Ihad imagined. Another problem I noticed is that we can't share informationconveniently between Architecture and other fields, such as Epidemiologist,Public Hygienic, and Sanitation statistics etc. With the fundamental datum andmaterials from these fields we can make the risk assessing of epidemic diseases,But the relationship between these datum and architectural design is complex,so new mathematic model or analytical method should be figured out 。In this regard, my thesis is limited to several aspects, I hope that furtherstudy will be taken on to improve the living conditions of mankind.
