ABSTRACT: Urban vulnerability to environmental hazards in the countries with the natural and risky environment has been an important challenge in urban sciences, engineering sciences, management and urban planning. This study tries to emphasize influential role of urban planning indicators along with structural indicators of earthquake programs by presenting a method to analyze seismic vulnerability of worn textures, and intends to identify and develop the relationship between urban planning and earthquake disaster management, in order to reduce the seismic vulnerability of old texture of Farameh district in Damavand city. The significance of seismic vulnerability of Damavand city, especially worn textures and spaces of its central parts, regarding the natural unsecure bed and the position of central parts of the city, necessitate estimation of old (worn) textures of central parts of Damavand and prioritize offering instructions to reduce its seismic vulnerability. First, vulnerability position of Damavand city is studied emphasizing on Farameh district, and then Farameh neighborhood is introduced as study area of the research. In analysis level, first the amount and data of indicators are extracted and then weighing of these indicators are studied using Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Expert Choice. Finally, the design of construction vulnerability scenarios will be discussed, using the results obtained from the analysis of the indices in AHP model. It was concluded that expansion and population coverage of high and very high vulnerable areas is high (in central parts and core of the texture), and all in all it indicated high vulnerability of the areas regarding all analyzed physical factors against earthquake.
