In this regard, in order to select the sample size according to the size of the region, stratified method was used and in some cases, snowball method was used.In order to identify indicators, factors and variables affecting the sustainability of rural housing in Belyan district, with a special emphasis on field study and research studies in this specialized field, 7 factors were identified along with 21 items, and the basis for the design of Dimtel questionnaire was used as the main research tool in field studies. took The statistical population of the present study included three groups, and a total of 30 questionnaires were completed. The obtained alpha of the questionnaire was 0.91, which shows high reliability. The results of statistical studies show that the most important influencing factor (ri) on the stability of rural housing in the study area is the physical factor, the most important effective factor (cj) is the psychological factor, the most effective and effective factor (ri ci) is the psychological factor, and in terms of the total intensity Effectiveness and effectiveness (ri-ci) in the sustainability of rural housing, the economic factor has a causal role and the infrastructural factor has a causal role.

1-Introduction
     Rural housing is one of the most important components of the biological and social base of every household, which plays an important role in ensuring the comfort and convenience of every family. In this regard, the provision of sustainable rural housing as housing that is socially acceptable, economically appropriate, physically strong and environmentally friendly, is influenced by several factors, which nowadays lack or non-existence of sustainable housing in rural areas.

In order to identify indicators, factors and variables affecting the sustainability of rural housing in Belyan district, with special emphasis on field study and research studies in this specialized field, 7 factors along with 21 variables were identified and the basis for designing Dimtel questionnaire as the main research tool in field studies. The statistical population of the present research includes three groups, including local administrators including villagers and members of the Islamic Council, experts in the field of rural housing, as well as local experts including traditional architects and village experts, with 10 questionnaires in each group and a total of 30 questionnaires through the statistical population. completed.

As a result, in order to achieve this goal, the construction of sustainable rural housing using durable local materials can provide greater compatibility of the building with its surrounding environment; As a result, by following the principles of engineering and paying attention to the natural hazards in the area, it is possible to use the materials available in the environment. The use of native and recyclable materials should be combined with the traditional architectural model so that the use of energy in the environment reaches its highest level and, in addition to saving, the use of heat and coolness of the environment provides the comfort and well-being of the residents.
