    (Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, 2022) Dikmen Güleryüz, Oylum; Doğan, Fehmi; Doğan, Fehmi; Kasalı, Altuğ; 02.02. Department of Architecture; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    The aim of this study is to understand children's engagement with their urban outdoor environments in Izmir-Turkey, a city with a high urbanisation rate, and to explore the factors that affect their outdoor preferences outside of their school time. The study consists of a field study conducted in a densely populated middle-income neighbourhood. Participants are fourth-grade children from a state-run primary school aged 9-11 years (n=44) and their parents (n=40). The study followed a multi-methodological approach, employing questionnaires, drawing and story writing tasks as data collection methods. Results of the study showed the strong tendency to prefer outdoors during their free time even when their neighbourhood is a high-density urban settlement with limited opportunities for outdoor activities. In the studied neighbourhood, most of the participants mentioned the schoolyard over other locations as their preferred place fin- outdoor play. Other than the schoolyard, the children mainly reported familiar places in their neighbourhoods, close to their local environments which were also depicted in their drawings and described in their stories. From the perspectives of urban designers and policy-makers, the findings of the study highlight aspects to be concerned about opportunities for outdoor play in high-density and urbanised central neighbourhoods.

    Cephe Yönlenmesinin Tarihi Konutların Enerji Kullanımına Etkileri: Güneybatı Anadolu’da Dış Sofalı Konutlar
    (Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, 2022) Timur, Barış Ali; Başaran, Tahsin; İpekoğlu, Başak; Timur, Barış Ali; Başaran, Tahsin; 02.02. Department of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology; 02.01. Department of Conservation and Restoration of Cultural Heritage; 02. Faculty of Architecture
    Cephe yönlenme durumu, yapıların enerji kullanım miktarlarını etkileyen önemli bir tasarım parametresi olarak kabul edilmektedir. Bu parametre özellikle yeni yapı tasarımı alanında, yönlenme optimizasyon kararları geliştirmek üzere birçok araştırmada incelenmiştir. Buna karşılık, tarihi yapıların yönlenmesi ve enerji kullanım miktarları arasındaki ilişkiyi irdeleyen çalışmalar sınırlıdır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Anadolu coğrafyasında yaygın bir tarihi yapı türü olan dış sofalı konutların Muğla kenti örnek yerleşmesindeki hâkim yönlenme durumları ile enerji kullanım düzeyleri arasında belirgin bir ilişki olup olmadığının araştırılmasıdır. Araştırma yöntemi, DesignBuilder v.5.4.0.21 yazılımında gerçekleştirilmiş olan yapı ısıl modellemesi ve simülasyonudur. Çalışmada, örnek bir tarihi konutun mimari özellikleri kullanılarak oluşturulmuş sanal bir yapı modelinin sofa yönlenme durumu, ana ve ara yönlere göre değiştirilerek ısıl simülasyonları gerçekleştirilmiş ve simülasyonlar sonucu hesaplanan ısıtma ve soğutma enerji ihtiyaçları karşılaştırılmıştır. Simülasyonlar, karşılaştırmalı olarak önce yapı çevresindeki kütle ve peyzaj elemanlarıyla sonra bu elemanlar olmadan iki sonuç seti için gerçekleştirilmiştir. Simülasyonlar sonucunda, örnek yapı türü için en iyi ve en verimsiz yönlenme durumları arasında enerji kullanımı açısından hesaplanan oransal farkın %1,3 ile %2,2 arasında olduğu saptanmıştır. Bu sonuca göre, örnek yapı türü enerji kullanım durumunun çok yüksek oranda yönlenmeden bağımsız olduğu, bu nedenle de örnek yerleşmedeki dış sofalı konutlar için hâkim yönlenme tercihi ile yapı enerji kullanım düzeyleri arasında dikkate değer bir ilişki olmadığı belirlenmiştir.

    İşlev değişikliğinin tarihi yapılar üzerine etkileri “Alsancak Levanten Evleri örneği”
    (Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, 2015) Gazi Gezgin, Aylin; Boduroğlu, Elvin; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Social change brings with it new human needs and activities, and in every era humans create and recreate spaces, and hence structures, according to these needs and activities. This means that structures, and their parts, need to undergo change in terms of space and function to adapt to different functionalities and conditions. One understanding of preservation is based on the idea that with a change in function, historical structures which have outlived their original purpose are given new life and once again are made part of the urban landscape. Instances of functional change are most often seen in monumental and historical industrial structures, and in the examples of civil architecture remaining in areas set aside for housing settlements as a result of rapid urbanization. It is important, however, that any functional change made to a historical structure serves to protect the architectural value, meaning and memory of the structure. Alsancak is home to a large number of historical Levantine houses, many of which, following rapid urbanization in the 1970s, have had to change their function to that of bar or cafe. The main purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the re-functioning on these houses in Alsancak, and to make some recommendations on both the processes involved in re-functioning, and on the current legal regulations governing these processes with a view to ameliorating the negative effects of re-functioning on such structures.

    Modernity, Hygiene and Display of the Body
    (Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, 2016) Yılmaz, Ebru; Yılmaz, Ebru; 02.02. Department of Architecture; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    This article focuses on health museums as a building type introduced to the architectural medium at the beginning of 20th century by modern thinking, the ideal of creating a healthy society as a guarantee of progress and development. Health museums provided representation for concepts of modernity and hygiene in a built environment by being spaces that displayed the human body and exhibits related to diseases, hygiene, and medical developments. A modest building in scale and content, the Izmir Health Exhibition building of the Izmir Fair was analyzed in this study to show how it contributed to 1920s and 1930s modern architecture in Turkey and what were the representational meanings of the messages transmitted. The existence of this building, constructed in 1937 in Izmir, should be understood in the context of health policies from all around the world, social engineering efforts, and the process of modernization. The building is an example of a use of modern architecture, but of a type that is waning in popularity in today's contemporary world. Looking back at this building today helps us understand the rising and declining value of modernity in the discourse of hygiene and its effect on the field of architecture. The contribution of the Izmir Health Exhibition building to early modern Turkish architecture is discussed with reference to similar exhibitions and museums around the world.

    Research of Rural Architecture in Aegean Region: Villages of Bayindir
    (Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, 2017) Akyüz Levi, Eti; Taşcı, Burcu; Taşcı, Burcu; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Rural architecture and settlements occupy an important place in conservation discipline. In this study, the architectural pattern of Karahayit, Gaziler, and Kabaagac-the three villages affiliated to Zeytinova, Bayindir, Izmir-is examined and evaluated, and proposals regarding the future of the villages are made. The villages are documented through field surveys and literature reviews and are evaluated in a comparative study. This study is primarily based on the field surveys that determined in-situ conditions about villages. Villages are settlements that are isolated from the center and have limited transportation possibilities. Moreover, many people migrated to cities from the villages due to limitations of education and employment, resulting in the dilapidation of many of the houses as no one live in them. Settlement has taken form in agreement with the topography; the houses have inclined towards the valley and the scenery. Olive cultivation and cattle breeding are the main sources of living. The mosque and laundry buildings are among the important buildings. It is seen that various interventions were made in the houses during the usage. The physical sustainability of the houses must be ensured in integration with sustainable social, economic, and living conditions. The following measures seem appropriate: the houses should be adapted for current living conditions; a technical contribution should be made during the repair work; and the houses should be expropriated and utilized for touristic functions. The maintenance of villages should be evaluated in the context of rural development. Furthermore, production and marketing possibilities should be developed, and welfare activities should be increased. Finally, ecotourism as a means in rural development should be considered.

    Impact of Window-To Surface Area for Different Window Glass Types and Wall Orientations on Building Energy Performance: a Case Study for a School Building Located in Izmir, Turkey
    (Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, 2011) Yildiz, Yusuf; Durmuş Arsan, Zeynep; Ozbalta, Trkan Goksal; Arsan, Zeynep Durmus; 02.02. Department of Architecture; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    The opaque and transparent surfaces of buildings have an important role in the total percentage of energy loss or gain. Heat loss or gain from windows are dependent on the window-to-wall area ratio, the window glass type, and the type of window frame used. In the concept of energy efficient design, heat loss or gain from windows should be analyzed in detail in the early stages of building design by considering local climatic conditions. This study investigates a school building located in Izmir in Turkey, a city with a hot and humid climate. Various glass types with different glazing characteristics and number of layers, located in different parts of the buildings and with different window-to-wall ratios are analyzed and compared using building the energy analysis program "EnergyPlus". Results indicate that window-to-wall area ratios, wall orientation and glass types are important factors in the building's total energy consumption. When the window-to-wall area ratio is increased from 10% to 60%, the winter heating load of the building decreases in maximum amount on the south side of the building and reduces in minimum amount on the east side of the building. When summer cooling load is investigated the highest increase in energy consumption is found on the south side of the building. On the eastern and western sides of the building the effect of increased energy consumption value remains low. When the total energy consumption (cooling + heating) is considered, it is calculated that the east and west sides have the biggest total effect and the northern wall has the smallest total effect. When low emissivity glass is used instead of double layer glass, in terms of energy consumption the building side order of effect remains the same, although actual values differ. It is therefore clear that using energy analysis programs to analyse different factors within the energy consumption of buildings will be beneficial in creating energy efficient solutions. This can be carried out in the earlier stages of the architectural design of the buildings or at the renovation stages of existing buildings.

    Investigation of Educational Buildings in Terms of Daylighting Performance
    (Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, 2011) Kazanasmaz, Zehra Tuğçe; Aral, Duygu; Kazanasmaz, Tugce; 02.02. Department of Architecture; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Educational buildings have the priority among other building types in daylight performance studies. There are several reasons for this. Classrooms which are used during the whole day should have sufficient and homogeneously distributed daylight. In insufficient daylight conditions, the use of electrical lighting increases energy consumption. Users' visual comfort should also be assured, and design incorporating natural light requires the analysis of sun protection devices in order to avoid glare and excessive heat. Also, atriums and skylights can be included in the building design with the aim of distributing light equally and in a relatively balanced manner throughout the building. However, lighting schemes are often proposed by architects and professionals who tend to make use of different design tools, and it would be pertinent to investigate whether these tools perform as desired. This study analyses daylight design principles and design elements in educational buildings. It outlines the method which has been used to analyse the daylight performance of buildings. A university building was selected for the field study. Measurements were taken in sample spaces to determine daylight performance. Utilising comparison between standard values and measured values, findings are presented in the form of tables, drawings and figures.

    Efficient Design of Nursing Unit Floors
    (Yıldız Teknik Üniversitesi, 2009) Kazanasmaz, Zehra Tuğçe; Duzgunes, Arda; 02.02. Department of Architecture; 02. Faculty of Architecture; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Hospital designs aim to obtain the lowest possible construction, maintenance and operational costs together with patient satisfaction, comfort and privacy. To satisfy these needs, the efficient design of nursing unit areas becomes considerably important. This study was thus conducted to analyze planimetric design efficiency of nursing unit floors by defining certain floor areas and floor area ratios. To test existing nursing unit floors, quantitative assessments were noted in regard to their planimetric efficiency: the utility value of the built floor area, both in terms of its allocation to patient space (served), support (serving) and circulation space and the relative proportions of these. Results were presented in a comparative table. Of the 15 hospital floor plans analyzed, five satisfied minimum space requirements for patient areas, while another five were in the optimum range for circulation areas. Two were defined as the least efficient, having the lowest patient-to-circulation area ratio.
