Urban fabric degradation is recognized as one of the most critical challenges facing contemporary cities. Over time, and with the evolving biological, social, cognitive, and economic needs, the once functional urban environments are no longer capable of addressing the current demands. These areas now face a range of issues, including socio-economic disparities, environmental concerns, structural decay, and accessibility limitations. Consequently, urban decay has become a significant challenge for urban management. Therefore, there is an increasing need for innovative approaches to the regeneration and improvement of these urban areas, aimed at enhancing urban living quality and ensuring their adaptability to contemporary conditions. In this context, culture-based regeneration, with an emphasis on cultural components and representations, has emerged as an innovative and effective solution to address this growing problem. The current research is descriptive-analytical with the aim of evaluating the worn-out fabrics of Baghbahadoran city based on the re-generation of a culture-based approach. The metrics extracted from theoretical and experimental bases have been collected by the library, observational data, and researcher-made questionnaire. The total sample size was 347 through the classified method. In order to measure the validity of the research questionnaire, the content validity method was used by using the views of experts in the field of the present study. The reliability of the research questionnaire was also measured using the internal consistency method through Cronbach's alpha coefficient. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient for the questionnaire questions was 0.974; therefore, due to the fact that the Cronbach's alpha value was greater than 0.9, this reliability value placed the questionnaire in the excellent category. The analysis method of the present study was the best-worst method (BWM), based on which a weighted score was assigned to each of the components and measures. As a multi-criteria decision-making method, this method has enabled accurate and logical prioritization of effective elements in culture-based urban regeneration and has also helped improve the decision-making process. The results indicate that among the three worn-out fabrics of Baghbahadoran city, The deteriorated fabric of neighborhood Bagh Bahadoran, with the highest scores in social, cultural, economic, environmental, and transportation components, ranks first and has the greatest potential for utilizing the culture-based regeneration approach. The presence of valuable historical structures such as Chaharborj, proximity to the river, and easy access to it are factors that enhance this potential. The deteriorated fabric of neighborhood Dorabat ranks second, while neighborhood Malek Abad ranks third with less potential.
