Abstract
In spite of the awareness of the researchers the importance of the preparation of living environment (private or public) which is appropriate for a person to ensure a better life in the social, physical and psychological that have been emerged in communities. A lot of studies have been taken in many countries in the world including Iraq, which used various planning tools to control the size of building in terms of number of existing housing units, quality and services to be provided within the housing unit and beyond it, in excess of inclusion delimiters and controls within the laws of building construction, including: determining the area of construction, height and proportion of converting the area of land, using it as one of the structural density (F.A.R.) of appropriate planning tools. The absence of building controls or hindering them would lead to transgression in which it would violate the environment of the residential unit, the adoption of certain decisions by the municipality of Baghdad, as such as those related to allow the construction of a third floor (as well as the ground and first floor) requires serious studies of what would otherwise the residential areas would be, add to that, the lack of enlightenment of planning to the population which has an effect on the changes of the structural density (the Floor Area Ratio F.A.R.). Hence the importance of studying the "Floor Area Ratio F.A.R." and focus on its role in providing an appropriate environment for a residential unit through an awareness of the most important changes in the environment of the residential unit as a result of a number of reasons or factors that helped to change the "Floor Area Ratio F.A.R." following the analytical approach to the neighborhood # (427) in Al-Kadhimya as selected sample in Baghdad, and study the change in the environment of the residential unit at the beginning of its establishment, and up to the present time through the collection of information contained four themes concerning: family, residential segment, the residential unit and the evaluation of the residential unit of their respective owners. So it was reached on a set of conclusions and recommendations related to the subject of the study. .
