Abstract

With the continuous advancement of the sustainable development concept, optimizing the urban living environment has become one of the core goals of urban planning and construction in China. To enhance the ecological benefits and living comfort of residential areas, the reasonable planting distance between trees and buildings has become an important factor that cannot be ignored. By combining on-site cases, through on-site investigation and numerical simulation, this paper explores the impact of tree planting distance on the building environment and further proposes optimization schemes to avoid the negative effects of excessive tree shading and wind blocking of buildings, while ensuring the ecological functions of trees in beautifying the environment and purifying the air. The research results provide theoretical support and practical basis for the future design of residential area green landscape, promote the application of the concept of sustainable urban greening, and make positive contributions to improving the quality of life of residents and the urban ecological environment.
