Abstract

Architectural containment is considered Area to achieve interaction in group activities, and containment is limited to a distance of 1.20 meters of visual and auditory range , and the of distances in design for people with special needs, with the aim of creating an architectural environment that enhances collective human activity, . The research used three approaches: the first is an inductive theoretical approach to determine containment and the places that need it in educational buildings, the second is an inductive field research method based on observation using psychodrama, and the third is an analysis of a classroom with Dimensions of 4.12 m * 5 m and the share of each student in the class, and to evaluate the percentage of decrease in student density and the percentage of increase in the share of each student in the space after applying social containment. One of the most important results is that the Qatari position is the proportions in critical circumstances such as Covid-19 and for people with special needs, as this suggests a feeling of closeness and not a decrease in student density by applying the Egyptian code for people with disabilities in the direction of the smallest dimension of the room, and the density decreases by 33.33% and the student's share of the room space increases by 150% by applying the code in the direction of the largest side , and the density decreases by 50% and the student's share increases by 200% after applying architectural containment. containment pattern.
