Master Thesis Life Ciycle Assessment (lca) Based Home Rating Model for Izmir (hrm-Izmir)(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2007) Bozkurt, Eray; Erdoğdu Erkarslan, Özlem; Erkarslan, Özlem; 02.02. Department of Architecture; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyThis thesis presents the development and application of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) based home rating model for residential buildings in Izmir. It aims to develop building performance assessment within a single application. This new application supports various considerations throughout the building.s life cycle in relation to performance domains such as site ecology, energy consumption, material selection, lighting availability, transportation and the rest of the performance indicators. It is intended to encourage initiatives toward achieving better housing performance. ATHENA Canadian Software tool has been selected to calculate quantitive values for energy consumption, solid waste emission, air pollution index, water pollution index, global warming potential, weighted resource use. Then, thirty performance indicators, which were selected from the review of existing evaluation models has been grouped under four building life cycle stages, site selection, construction, operation, and demolition. The weights of each category and indicator has been calculated, and converted into a credit score. Then, the performance grades are divided into five levels, (excellent, good, average, below average and poor) and evaluation criteria are suggested based on statutory performance value.Master Thesis Introducing Built Environment To Children: Learning Through the Recent Practices of Architecture Organizations in Turkey(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2013) Önder, Ece Ceren; Akış, Tonguç; Akış, Tonguç; 02.02. Department of Architecture; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyThis academic study investigates the varying approaches for introducing built environment to children through the practices of architecture organizations in Turkey, namely the studies of built environment education. The practices of built environment education are novel and improving field of inquiry for Turkey which have influence for varying disciplines and also for the built environment itself. The purpose of the thesis is first to identify and examine the notions belongs to both built environment and built environment education. This theoretical attempt is to understand and learn from the documented practices of built environment education for the children in international and national scale. Secondly, the thesis focuses on and criticizes the selected cases from Ankara and İzmir in order to construct the implementation mapping to compare each selected educational practices. Besides, the study offers and implements an alternative case analysis in Turunç town / Muğla in the context of built environment education as a result of the examinations and observations of the previous studies held in local and international level. This special case is examined and evaluated as a part of the workshop series of “Turunç Mud Brick Preschool Workshops†. This analysis is to pursuit the ways of establishing an interactive learning and collaborating platform with the children, the local people, the volunteers and the professionals worked in Turunç within the same collective purpose for the awareness of built environment. Key words: architecture organizations, built environment, built environment education, children and architecture.
