Abstract Traditional compact urban fabric patterns is type of urban fabric that characterized by its organic structure integrated with the natural environment. The building blocks in this type are attached interspersed with interior courtyards within and between buildings. Streets and alleys are narrow, not straightforward and with closed endings. This system is common in the old traditional cities. Traditional compact urban fabric is classified according to the traffic network into forked or regular this research deals with the study and analysis of the concept of traditional compact urban fabric from the social perspective. It is a study of the social aspects affecting and affected by the built environment related to daily life within the prevailing social systems which is a man-made laws laid down by a group of people to organize their lives. Due to the multiplicity of the fields of social system, the researcher identified systems that are thought to have a clear impact on the built environment in the study area, which are the tribal system, the family system and the management of traditional community (Alhessbah and Aezzabah) The old town of Jadu was chosen as a case study. The study addresses the following issues. First- the concept and the characteristics of traditional compact urban fabric, were defined through the study of historical examples. Secondly - the physical structure of traditional compact urban fabric and the impact of social factors in the formation of this structure. Thirdly, field study which limited to the old town of Jadu which consists of two neighborhoods Tarkeen and Amgail. The porpose of field study is to analyze the impact of specific social systems on the built environment in the study area

Climate change is one of the most difficult problems facing the world today, accordingly, passive climatic design has been considered as an essential approach to a sustainable built environment. It is design that does not require mechanical heating or cooling were buildings are passively designed to take advantage of natural energy flows to sustain thermal comfort and create a good stable indoor climate. Issues related to climate have been explored by a number of researchers in Libya, however, the application of passive climatic design in the contemporary Libyan architecture is very rare. Within this background, this research is conducted based on qualitative approach by utilised interview for data collection, were members from different professional groups who dealt with passive design were interviewed in order to establish factors influencing the implementation of passive climatic design in the Libyan built environment. The findings show that there are four main factors related to Architectural and planning design, End users, Marketing and Government. The paper identifies the principles of passive climatic design in hot regions and provides suggestions to implement these principles in Libyan future architecture.
