Master Thesis Restoration and Presentation of Byzantine Defense Structures in Cilicia(01. Izmir Institute of Technology, 2021) Kenar, Aylin; Turan, MineThe aim of this study is to evaluate current restorations and presentations of Byzantine defense structures in terms of sustaining and enhancement of the cultural heritage values and their success in solving conservation problems. So, better management of future interventions may be possible. Case study approach was undertaken: Three castle ruins in Cilicia, Turkey were focused on: Yılan and Feke castles and Kızkalesi in Korykos. The cases are located in the present-day rural areas. They are restored recently. The study consists of literature review, site survey, documentation and analysis of geographic characteristics, historic background, morphologic characteristics, construction technique and material usage and conservation activities of the case studies, identification of the cultural heritage values and conservation problems before and after interventions at the landscape, site and building scales; and discussion of the effects of the interventions on values and problems in comparison with case studies from abroad. As a result, it was determined that interventions were either unsystematic or implemented more than necessary. There is lack of a holistic approach for interventions. While some portions were intervened, others were left in-situ without any interventions. There is a tendency for reconstruction and reintegration in general. It was seen that current interventions either sustain already accumulated cultural heritage values or they have negative impact on them. Consequently, enhancement of values is not observed. Meanwhile, some of the conservation problems were ignored.Master Thesis Archiving of the Conservation Data of Immovable Cultural Assets Dating To 1300-1600 in Urla Center Using Gis(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2019) Yönder, Veli Mustafa; Turan, Mine; Demirkesen, Ali CanThis study aims to create a digital archiving system of immovable cultural assets belonging to the early Turkish time frame in Urla historic center. Forming a database with the assistance of the Geographic Information System (GIS) to comprehend and assess the life stories of monuments and to access various user profiles is also considered. In the methodology section; academic articles, books, journals, personal archives, data acquired from state institutions or architectural offices, and the data obtained during fieldwork (physical status and interviews with users) were processed in a GIS platform. Academic reviews and researches of the buildings were conducted. In the decision-making process, which is a sophisticated and multidimensional process, the share of conservation data and data management in the whole process becomes progressively significant. Documentation and registration of architectural immovable cultural assets, which is one of the important figures in the urban context, are conducted under the supervision of the Regional Directorate of Pious Foundations or the Conservation Board. Therefore, extracting a large number of mass data produced each year and making the required classifications make assist decision-making processes. In the discussion and results part, analysis and comparative study of all conservation data of the cultural assets were performed. The results for constructing the database are understanding the scope, accessibility, developers, scale, and data types. In the results for the conservation data archived: are understanding historical background, physical characteristics, conservation activities, and interpreting conservation decisions about buildings.Master Thesis Historical Development of Göztepe District in Izmir and Preservation Problems of Its Monuments(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2019) Düzcan, İpek; Turan, MineGöztepe has transformed significantly with the loss of its suburban landscape and historic context of the late 19th century and early 20th century. The transformation of the historical context of the district started during the mid 20th century, when urbanization had caused the invasion of the district with high apartment buildings. The historical value of the site arises from its remaining assets. The study aims to present the historical development of Göztepe and its current preservation problems with an eye on its monuments: Arapyan Ispartalyan House, Susuz Dede Park, Notre Dame de Lourdes Church and Anadolu Apartment Building. The way followed is literature review, site survey, historical and archive research, comparative study, evaluation and discussion. The present historical monuments of Göztepe district had been built at the beginning of the 20th century, except the site of Susuz Dede Park, which originates in Hellenistic period (4th century BC). The types of the studied monuments vary according to their function as one educational, two religious or one residential type; and also, according to their quality as three cultural, and one mixed (cultural and natural). The recognition of the values of the district depends on the sustaining of these assets. It is concluded that the present state of Göztepe district is not successful as a representative of its historical characteristics; rather it indicates an insufficient long-term planning of urban development and conservation-oriented zoning. For the sustainable development of the district, a harmonious balance between the new and the old should be ensured. Preservation of the assets will contribute to presenting a much more valuable whole. A holistic approach is necessary in this manner for revealing the hidden values.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.Master Thesis Refunctioning Of Old Tanneries İn Kuşadası, Aydın(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2006) Teket, Zeynep Gülden; Turan, MineThis study aims to survey, analyse and evaluate the old tannery site in Kuadası, Aydın; and to propose a refunctioning scheme for the continuation of its survival. An application project for the conservation of this site has been developed by Göç-Tur Firm, which has rented the site from the Ministry of Culture and Tourism for 49 years.This thesis questions Göç-Tur.s project and develops an academic approach for the conservation problem. It claims that determination of an appropriate function for the site should be based on evaluations at tannery unit and site scales. Detailed analysis is a prerequisite for understanding of values and problems. The refunctioning scheme should consider urban requirements, reuse preferences, theoretical scope and structural necessities.The built cultural heritage in Kuadası has been continuously damaged as a result of mass tourism and the absence of forward planning. Within this context, the old tannery site is a significant potential for Kuadası as it still preserves the modest design character based on human scale and the original solid-void organization with minimum alterations. Moreover, the traditional leather production process documented via these tanneries is itself a value. When refunctioning decisions are determined mostly with the employer preferences rather than detailed analysis and evaluation phases, these decisions may be incompatible with the case potential. In turn, the appropriate function for the tannery site has been clarified after deciphering its urban and documentary values; and also spatial and structural problems within the frame of contemporary theory of conservation. Consequently, refunctioning of the discussed tannery site as a commercial district with the association of leather goods has been achieved.
