Master Thesis Conservation Aimed Evaluation of the Bath Ruin in Gülbahçe, Urla, İzmir(01. Izmir Institute of Technology, 2021) Çağlıyurt, Aslı; Turan, MineThis study takes into consideration a historic geothermal spring bath house on the coast of Gülbahçe bay in Urla, İzmir. The aim is to identify its cultural asset values and architectural conservation problems. Gülbahçe thermal spring bath house is a historic monument that has preserved its bathing function for health purpose. It is part of the geothermal spring bath group in Urla-Seferihisar region, which is famous with its geothermal sources. The modest structure has preserved its authentic characteristics such as rubbles tone masonry walls exposed without plastering and dimly lighted bathing space circumscribing a pool. Its rubble stone and cement mortar vault reflect the repair attitude of the early Republican era. The monument integrates with its natural setting in between a Mediterranean coated mount and the coast. So, the methodology includes tachometric documentation of the bath house, its visual analysis, historical research and archive research, identification of similar bath houses in Urla-Seferihisar region, comparative study with these similar bath houses, evaluation of the cultural asset values and conservation problems, and proposal for restoration of the bath house.it represents the thermal bathing tradition in the geothermal region of Urla-Seferihisar together with the other baths in Cumalı, Karakoç, Kelalan and Ilıksu. Being positioned within the campus area of İzmir Institute of Technology gives privilege to the monument in terms of its restoration possibility. It will be first scientifically restored thermal spring bath house in its region. As a result, this study carries importance in terms of understanding of the Gülbahçe geothermal spring bath house, and illuminate the way for future studies on vernacular Anatolian bath houses.Master Thesis Structural Conservation of Cevher Paşa Bath in Kale, Denizli(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2018) Durmuşlar, Feyza; Turan, Mine; Aktaş, EnginThe study has focused on structural conservation of a historical monument in an archeological site. Cevher Paşa Bath, which is located in Kale (ancient Tabae) archeological site in Denizli and dated to the 15th century, is selected as the case study. The aim of the study is to propose a framework for structural conservation of the ruins of Cevher Paşa Bath so that conservation work regarding similar masonry ruins in archeological sites belonging to Turkish period can be guided. First, the bath was documented by using 3D Laser Scanner. Then, historical and theoretical framework including development of baths, loads of masonry buildings and evaluation of interventions in similar cases was constituted. Characteristics of the case study was defined in terms of location, landform, history, site and mass characteristics, architectural features, structural characteristics, structural calculations and alteration analysis. Condition report of the bath was prepared in form of tables. To identify original state of the bath, restitution was carried out. Nevertheless, the restoration approach is not reintegration, but only consolidation and presentation in order to sustain integrity with the archaeological site whole. Therefore, to prevent further damages, emergency interventions such as temporary shoring are proposed. Structural calculations have revealed that strength of the walls corresponds to stresses and overturning moment. So, the restoration work includes only supporting of arch remains and the weakest corner of the bath, which was determined by calculations. Some walls of the ruin are weaker than other parts. These parts need further analysis by civil engineers, and if necessary, consolidation can be carried out. The monument management plan points out the necessity of collaboration of Kale Municipality, RT Ministry of Culture and Tourism, Aydın Regional Council for Conservation of Cultural Assets, Directorate of Excavations in General Directorate of Cultural Assets and Museums, Aydın Conservation Implementation and Inspection Office, Department of Architectural Restoration and Department of Civil Engineering of IZTECH and History of Art Department of Ege University, and monitoring of the changes the bath four times in every year.
