(université msila, 2022) Mourad bouhlal; boudjemaa khalfalla
Social housing neighborhoods suffer from several urban and environmental problems, including deterioration and deformation within the urban environment. This is due to several factors, including residents ‘negative impacts on the urban area and on the aesthetic image of the city, and urban interventions carried out outside the legal frameworks of social housing neighborhoods. This research paper aims to diagnose the resident’s negative behavior within the social housing in M’sila by posing the questions of what are the causes and effects residents’ interventions and what are the types that fit their needs and requirements. Results demonstrate that residents’ illegal interventions on the urban environment have contributed to the deterioration of the social housing neighborhoods and further demonstrate that, in some cases, interventions were the result of poor urban planning and the residents’ needs for comfort. This study uses the descriptive analytical approach to describe the deterioration at several levels in addition to the reciprocal relationship between the built framework and the social and urban phenomena
