The study has focused on consolidation of a historical bath ruin in an archaeological site. Cevher Pasa Bath which is located in Tabae archaeological site in Denizli Turkey and dated to the 15th century presents structural problems. The aim of the study is to propose a framework for planning consolidation of the ruins of Cevher Pasa Bath so that conservation work regarding similar masonry ruins in archaeological sites can be guided. Thus methods of architectural restoration and civil engineering are combined in an interdisciplinary scope. Provision of temporary shoring as an emergency intervention consolidation and presentation of the ruin within the scope of an interdisciplinary restoration project and monitoring of the asset within the frame of a monument management plan are suggested respectively. Structural analysis considering stress and overturning moment checks are performed. Consolidation work includes only supporting of arch remains. Some walls of the ruin are weaker than other parts. These parts need further detailed analysis and if necessary further consolidation and strengthening are to be carried out. The monument management plan points out the necessity of collaboration of local and central administrations and also non-governmental organisations.

Birden fazla kültürün bir arada yaşadığı toplumlarda farklı yaşamların bir araya gelmesi sonucu mekânsal çeşitlilikler oluşmaktadır. Kültürlerin mekânsal ihtiyaçları doğrultusunda gelişen yapı türü çeşitliliği yapım tekniği mekânsal karakteristikler ve mimari elemanları bu çeşitliliği desteklenmektedir. Kentlerde çok kültürlülüğün sonucu olarak ise o bölgeye özgün bir doku oluşmaktadır. Bu çalışma kapsamında seçilen İzmir Karantina Bölgesi tarihsel süreçte birçok kültürü bir arada barındırmış ve günümüz kent merkezinde tarihi bir doku oluşturmuştur. Bölge 10. yüzyılda Bizanslıların donanma tesisi olarak hizmet etmiştir. 11. yüzyılda Türklerin eline geçen Karantina 19. Yüzyılda Rum Ermeni Yahudi ve Müslüman toplumların bir arada yaşadığı bir yerleşim olmuştur. Günümüze kadar bölgeye bazı kentsel müdahaleler yapılmıştır. Yapılan müdahaleler sonrasında Karantina Bölgesi’nin tarihi mekanlarının ve bölgeleri de değişime uğramıştır. Bu çalışma kapsamında tarihi Karantina Bölgesi ve yıllar içinde geçirdiği dönüşümlere dair bir inceleme yapılmıştır.

Proposals for Monitoring Current Conservation Condition of Historical Masonry Buildings: Matrone Church and Cardak Han Cases
(ISTANBUL UNIV RESEARCH INST TURKOLOGY DEPT ART HISTORY, 2020) Feyza Durmuslar; Emre Ipekci; Mine Hamamcioglu Turan; Engin Aktas; Durmuslar, Feyza; Aktaş, Engin; Turan, Mine; İpekci, Emre
The aim of this study is to transfer the international developments related to the process of diagnosis and monitoring of historical masonry structures to the national area. The method chosen is to test the recommendations made at the international level on national cases and to discuss the results obtained by comparing them. A review of preliminary studies on-site observations measured surveys material characterizations mapping and visual analysis have been carried out. An examination of structural characteristics and observed failures have also been detailed. Related risks have been evaluated with criteria developed by taking into consideration condition classes defined in the UNI EN 16096 titled Conservation of Cultural Property- Condition Survey and Report of Built Cultural Heritage. According to the defined risks and classes priorities of interventions were determined. Two historical masonry buildings which possess characteristics of different periods and present different damage types were selected: Matrone Church in Ildiri Cesme Izmir and Cardak Han in Cardak Denizli. The condition reports of the selected buildings have been prepared. The critical points in the condition reporting of historical masonry buildings were determined: accurate comprehension of the authentic structural characteristics and related failures have priority in maintaining historical masonry structures. Identification of condition class and risk assessment of each historic masonry building should be made in accordance with a standard specific to the cases of our country but in line with the European standards and current developments in the field of architectural restoration. Thus it will be possible to evaluate the conservation state of our masonry assets in comparison with each other. The content and priority of interventions can be well planned with the participation of the necessary disciplines.

User-Oriented Architectural Design of Separated Infill Walls to Prevent Soft Ground Story in Reinforced Concrete Low-Rise Buildings
(ASCE-AMER SOC CIVIL ENGINEERS, 2021) Mauricio Morales-Beltran; Feyza Durmuslar; Ecenur Kizilorenli; Morales-Beltran, Mauricio; Kizilorenli, Ecenur; Klzllörenli, Ecenur; Durmuslar, Feyza
Buildings with open ground stories are more vulnerable to soft story mechanisms which might lead to building collapse in a moderate quake. To mitigate these negative effects retrofitting techniques typically introduce new structural elements or energy dissipation devices which increases the deformation capacity of the soft story without modifying the stories above. However by altering the open nature of the ground floor these solutions fail to integrate the occupants' preferences and needs into the design process. Therefore instead of modifying the ground floor this study will propose a user-centered design process which is based on separated infill walls in the upper stories to mitigate the effects of soft story irregularity. The user-centered design strategy integrates the needs and preferences of the occupants into the design solutions of their built environment. To achieve this two low-rise reinforced concrete buildings in Turkey were selected as case studies and subjected to structural analyses to determine whether the separation of the existing infill masonry walls reduced the lateral strength of the structure. In parallel preliminary designs of the infill separations was developed and discussed with architects practicing engineers and builders. The feedback helped to develop design details to achieve the separation of the infill walls from the frames in the studied buildings. The occupants that live in the existing buildings or the surrounding areas were interviewed and presented with parametric variations of these proposals. Quantitative data suggests that separation of the infill walls is a feasible solution that could be applied to new construction and for existing reinforced concrete multistory buildings and the qualitative data that was obtained from the interviews suggested that user-centered design approaches help to develop suitable seismic mitigation strategies.
