    The conservation of the historical building by improving the thermal comfort conditions contributes to the reuse of the buildings. Besides thermal improvement, the authentic values of the historical building should be taken into consideration. The aim of this thesis is to examine the effects of indoor microclimate characteristics of historic Agios Voukolos Church on the occupants and the wall paintings of the building, and to bring improvement suggestions that consider the values of the historical church by evaluating the thermal comfort conditions. The method of the study consists of on-site examination, on-site measurements of microclimate parameters, calculations and surveys. Air temperature, relative humidity, air velocity and mean radiant temperature measurements were conducted. In order to determine thermal comfort level, Predicted Mean Vote (PMV)–Predicted Percentage Dissatisfied (PPD) method developed by Fanger (1967, 1970) was used and survey studies were carried out during activities in winter. The threshold values specified in the ISO 7730:2005 and EN 16798-1:2019 standards were taken into account. According to the calculations, it was understood that the occupants felt warm in July and August, and cold in November through March. Survey study conducted in winter also confirmed that occupants are not satisfied with thermal comfort conditions. Additionally, respective UNI 10829:1999 standard and the decree published by the Italian Ministry of Culture in 2001 were used to determine the effect of indoor microclimate on wall paintings and ornaments. As a result, secondary glazing system, nighttime ventilation and radiant heaters were suggested for thermal improvement.

    Libraries are collections of recorded information which can host cultural heritage values that must be protected against mechanical, chemical and biological degradation. To prevent degradations, libraries require stable indoor climates with minimal temperature and relative humidity fluctuations and low concentrations of indoor air pollutants. Aim of the thesis is to investigate if installing a HVAC system is effective in improving the indoor climate of a historic library as a long-term preventive conservation method on the preservation of paper-based collections. Tire Necip Paşa Library in İzmir was selected as the case building which underwent restoration and a HVAC system integration in 2015. Library’s indoor climate was investigated before 2015 which allowed the comparison of pre- and post-restoration periods. Within the scope of this thesis, library was monitored at five locations between 2019-2021. 2019-2020 monitoring results were compared to pre-restoration monitoring results in terms of degradation risks and ASHRAE Chapter 23 control classes. Pre- and post-restoration indoor climates satisfied A1 and AA control classes, respectively. While there were mechanical and chemical degradation risks before restoration, no risk was observed post-restoration. There was no biological degradation risk during either periods. Additionally air pollutants were sampled during summer and winter of 2020-2021 which showed high SO2 and NO2 concentrations. Lastly the BES model of library was prepared and calibrated to investigate if existing HVAC system will continue to provide a stable indoor climate on future. The results of 2050 and 2080 simulations showed that HVAC system will struggle to provide a stable indoor climate.

    Image-Based Three-Dimensional Modeling of Izmir Çakaloğlu Khan
    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2012) Palaoğlu, Ümmühan; İpekoğlu, Başak; İpekoğlu, Başak; 02.01. Department of Conservation and Restoration of Cultural Heritage; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Three-dimensional (3-D) documentation in historic building conservation is important in terms of demonstrating the size, shape, location within the settlement, architectural elements, spatial and volumetric features of the building. Alterations, decay in materials, structural problems and damages can be monitored and updated in image-based three-dimensional models of historic buildings. The focus of this thesis is on the image-based three-dimensional modeling of Çakaloğlu Khan, one of the urban Ottoman Khans in İzmir dating from the 19th century. Çakaloğlu Khan is located in the historic Kemeraltı commercial district, to the southwest of Kızlarağası Khan close to İzmir harbor. The building distinguishes itself from other urban Ottoman Khans by its location, its middle passage plan type, its mass made up of spaces of various heights and original architectural elements. The model utilized two-dimensional documentation drawings of the building consisting of plan, elevation, sections and digital photos. Primarily, the photos were edited using the softwares Zoner Photo Studio 10, Adobe Photoshop Elements 7.0 and Inkscape, following which a solid model of the Khan was built and the photos were attached to the model surface. This model was then transferred to Google Earth, and its location on the earth was determined by entering its x, y and z coordinates. This study enabled access and sharing of the three-dimensional image of the building through satellite. The exterior mass and original architectural elements of the building were documented by using low cost digital technology in threedimensions based on images. The prepared model not only enabled to holistically perceive a building hitherto hidden among densly located buildings, but also created data to discuss numerous alternatives for its conservation decisions.

    Investigating the Efects of Nodes and Landmarks in City Plannig Practice
    (Izmir Institute of Technology, 2003) Böcekli, Burcu; Süel, Akın; Süel, Akın; 02.03. Department of City and Regional Planning; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    This thesis deals with the analysis of landmarks that are active elements in the formation of ordered urban spaces, in helping the creation of more qualified and identified cities and in increasing the quality of the living environment. It stresses why the landmarks are important for a city.s inhabitants and its visitors and aims to identify certain physical and social elements, which play role on the constitution of landmarks.Human beings and cities have strong interactions, relations and connections with each other. Man has some impressions and impacts from the city that he lives in or that he visited. These impressions are images that are collected from parts of cities. Visual urban elements play an important role on the formation of the impressions that he has. Social, economical and cultural facts are other active elements that effect human beings just like visual urban elements. The most important thing here is, all these experiments and impressions he has, are influenced from the urban environment and its visual elements.This study sees one of the functions of the planner as; lessening the effects of the unpleasant cities that we live in, with the positive effects of some urban elements like landmarks. Looking from this point of view, the first aim of this study is to examine the development and the usage of landmarks throughout history, the second is to define and classify landmarks and the third is to examine and discuss their use in the cities for the betterment of cities throughout history considering the planning principles.
