The public benefit is not only considered in the conventional sense of urban services and their equal distribution, but it is a public benefit and good.

هدف : مفهوم کیفیت فضا محصول شرایط و متغیرهای مختلفی است که همین عوامل در واقع عناصر تاثیرگذار در فضا – مکان جغرافیایی است. ابژکتیویسم فضا ، در هر شهری نقش پررنگی دارد و با  وضعیت های بحرانی مانند زلزله  روابط متقابلی برقرار می کند. در این مقاله کیفیت فضا، به مثابه منفعت یا کالایی عمومی در نظر گرفته شده است که دارای ابعاد کارکردی، ادراکی و کالبدی است.   منفعت عمومی صرفا به معنای مرسوم خدمات شهری و توزیع برابر آن ها نگریسته نمی شود بلکه منفعت و کالایی عمومی است.  بررسی میدانی تاثیر کیفیت فضا و بهره مندی از کالاهای عمومی بر کاهش آسیب های ناشی از زلزله در منطقه یک شهرداری تبریز است.

روش: روش تحقیق توصیفی تحلیلی است. تعداد 120 نفر به صورت تصادفی از ساکنان منطقه1  شهرداری تبریز مورد پرسشگری قرار گرفته اند.

نتایج : نتایج تحقیق حاکی از آن است که کیفیت فضا در کاهش آسیب پذیری در برابر زلزله تاثیر معنی داری دارد.

نتیجه گیری: میانگین معنادار هر یک از انواع سرمایه اجتماعی در خروجی آزمون U-Man Vitny نشان  می دهد که کاهش آسیب پذیری در برابر بحران زلزله در منطقه تبریز به بازتولید و تکثیر سرمایه اجتماعی در مقیاس خیابان، محله و شهر تبریز بستگی دارد.
