Design Strategies for Green/Energy-efficient Building Design: an Apartment Building in the Gaziantep Project
(Springer International Publishing, 2020) Yazıcıoğlu, M.; Tunçer, M.; Çelebi, G.; 238157; 01. Çankaya Üniversitesi; 05. Mimarlık Fakültesi; 05.01. İç Mimarlık; 05.03. Şehir ve Bölge Planlama
The aim of this study is to introduce the energy-efficient architectural design strategies of a project which has been supported by the Turkish Ministry of Environment and Urbanization. This project has not yet been implemented, and the construction process and material choices have not been finalized. Nevertheless, it was considered important to share the design strategies and decisions. The location of the project is in Gaziantep City. The city is located in the southern part of Turkey. Some parts of the province, situated at the transition point of the Mediterranean and continental climate, are influenced by the Mediterranean climate. However, in general, summers are extremely hot and dry, and the winters are cold and rainy. Rare precipitation is most common in winter and spring. In the project, both in planning and architectural designing, the climatic and environment conditions were considered as a basic guider. Five principles were used in the design approach: “green/energy-efficient”, “buildings with identity”, “smart”, “safety”, and “human oriented”. For every principle, different strategies have been analysed and studied. In this study, only the design decisions for a green/energy-efficient building will be presented. While considering the principles and design decisions, strategies will be explained with references from scientific studies. In the green/energy-efficient design approach, the decisions transferred to the physical environment focused on the use of “passive systems”, “active systems”, and “resource conservation and local material use”. In passive solar system, principles such as “natural ventilation and wind control”, “sun control and natural daylighting”, “green roof”, and “envelope design and insulation” are considered and analysed. Solar heating is preferred during heating periods, and wind energy is preferred during cooling periods. Active solar systems were used during the seasons when the requirements were not met. Among the renewable energy sources, it is deemed appropriate to produce electricity from the sun (PV), which is the easiest way to reach and use alternative energy sources. Sun collectors in water heating were used. Also, these systems are integrated into the buildings. The basic approaches that affect the environmental performance of the building are to use local materials and to read the topography and microclimate conditions correctly. One of the most important factors affecting the shaping of the traditional buildings is the surrounding resources. In the construction of buildings, to use materials with the most sustainable resources available in the environment was proposed. Within the context of the principles and strategies mentioned above, projects have been prepared for buildings with different functions. Four- to five-storey apartments, detached houses, religious buildings, educational buildings, cultural centre, health centre, and traditional shopping malls were designed, which are related to planning and landscape principles. In this study, an apartment building will be presented with visual materials from project. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2020.

Evaluation of the Issues and Challenges in Turkey's Urban Planning System
(Springer international Publishing Ag, 2019) Sari, O. Burcu Ozdemir; Ozdemir, Suna S.; Uzun, Nil; 05.03. Şehir ve Bölge Planlama; 05. Mimarlık Fakültesi; 01. Çankaya Üniversitesi
This concluding chapter focuses particularly on the period, which starts with the 2002 general elections, covering almost the last 15 years of the country. In this period, Turkish cities have experienced significant spatial and social transformations. This raises a number of issues and challenges for urban and regional planning in Turkey. The current urban and regional planning agenda worldwide covers dozens of topics. ForTurkey, three issues have become prominent: (i) actors (and institutions) other than planners (and planning) that have control capacity in the production and transformation of the built environment, and adverse effects of their actions on the integrity of urban plans and the control capacity of urban planning, (ii) the need to achieve resilient, safe, and sustainable urban environments, and (iii) consequences of population growth and the spatial expansion of cities as well as the problems stemming from the current efforts at urban transformation. Some cross-cutting issues and significant points among the chapters of the book are emphasised in this chapter. The Turkish case provides useful examples and fruitful discussions for international readers from developed and developing countries.
Indoor Soundscapes of the Future: Listening To Smart Houses
(wiley, 2023) Alkan, A.L.; Yörükoğlu, P.N.D.; Kitapci, K.; 214925; 05.01. İç Mimarlık; 05. Mimarlık Fakültesi; 01. Çankaya Üniversitesi
The acoustic environment of smart houses impacts the overall quality of life and wellbeing of occupants. A well-designed acoustic environment can promote relaxation, while excessive noise or distractions can negatively impact wellbeing. It is crucial to consider sound’s role in smart house design. Smart houses have built-in virtual assistants that respond to voice commands, perform various tasks, and verbally respond to such commands. This machine-to-human-to-machine verbal interaction requires high speech intelligibility (i.e., low reverberation time and high signal-to-noise ratio) in smart houses, which is not required for traditional homes. The open floor plan and multi-purpose rooms in smart houses can create challenges for sound management. This can be addressed by creating separate zones for different activities or using room dividers that help to direct and absorb sound. The design of smart houses includes the placement of speakers and other audio devices to optimize sound quality and distribution. Speakers are installed in the ceiling or walls to create a more immersive and balanced listening experience. The placement of microphones and other sensors should also be optimized for smart houses. Microphones should be placed where sound is most likely heard or where it best captures voice commands. Integrating multiple audio sources and devices creates challenges in managing and organizing sound in a smart house. Designers should consider configuring smart devices and ensuring that different devices are compatible and functioning properly. © 2024 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. All rights reserved.

Integrating the Resilience Perspective Into the Turkish Planning System: Issues and Challenges
(Springer international Publishing Ag, 2019) Kaya, Deniz Altay; 54723; 05.03. Şehir ve Bölge Planlama; 05. Mimarlık Fakültesi; 01. Çankaya Üniversitesi
Within the last decade, resilience has become both a major planning framework and a development goal for cities and regions facing a plethora of problems in different fields and at different scales. This chapter aims to identify the challenges that await governments when they integrate a resilience thinking framework into their planning systems. The chapter first provides a short explanation on the significance of resilience planning and then outlines a structural model for incorporating the social, economic, political, and institutional requirements in resilience thinking in city and regional planning. Next, the chapter provides a short analysis of the Turkish planning system to reveal its inherent problems and the issues that are likely to be most challenging in a shift towards resilience planning. Finally, based on the provided analyses, the chapter provides a critical discussion on the challenges in operationalizing resilience planning in the Turkish context. The findings reveal that there is a need for restructuring especially in Turkey's institutional and legislative framework to improve coordination and cooperation, to assure the use of scientific knowledge within the decision-making processes, and to actualize the praxes of participation and engaged governance.

A New Framework for a Resilience-Based Disaster Risk Management
(Springer International Publishing, 2021) Galderisi, A.; Altay-Kaya, D.; 54723; 01. Çankaya Üniversitesi
This chapter aims at providing hints to improve existing frameworks for disaster risk management based on a review of the main documents framing disaster management within the last two and a half decades and with reference to the potential contribution of resilience thinking. The evolution path of disaster risk management shows that, although some progresses have been made, there are still numerous gaps to be filled. On the opposite, focusing on the increasing convergence of resilience and disaster studies, it emerges that a resilience-based approach could still provide significant theoretical and operational inputs towards an improved disaster risk management. In particular, this chapter emphasizes the potential contribution of resilience thinking in developing a new framework for guiding disaster risk management capable of (1) taking into consideration the rapidly changing risk landscapes due to the interplay between climate change and the consequent increase of hazardous events, urbanization patterns and the complex interrelationships among them; (2) shifting from sectoral approaches to disaster risk reduction (DRR) towards integrated approaches and cross-sectoral strategies and tools; (3) embracing transformational perspectives to significantly reduce disaster losses and achieve sustainability goals; (4) improving learning capacity through the setting up of continual learning processes; (5) emphasizing the role of spatial and land use planning for DRR; and (6) developing more innovative governance models based on collaboration, shared responsibility and active engagement of the stakeholders. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2021.

A New Route for Regional Planning in Turkey: Recent Developments
(Springer international Publishing Ag, 2019) Ozdemir, Suna S.; 25219; 01. Çankaya Üniversitesi
Since the 1930s, regional plans have been drawn up for various regions in Turkey. However, the institutional practice of regional development policy as well as regional planning began with the establishment of the State Planning Organisation in 1960. After the 1960s, through Five-Year National Development Plans, a regional development policy was defined, and regional development plans were formulated for some specific regions. In practice, there were some challenges and problems during that period in regional planning. The shift in the regional development policy and regional planning began in 1999 with Turkey's accession period to the European Union. For adaptation to the EU's regional policy, some newpolicies, legislation, and institutional set-ups were defined. This chapter mainly focuses on these new policies and instruments, namely the new route taken by regional planning in Turkey.

Policy and Planning in the Age of Mobilities: Refugees and Urban Planning in Turkey
(Springer international Publishing Ag, 2019) Gungordu, Feriha Nazda; Bayirbag, Mustafa Kemal; 257610; 01. Çankaya Üniversitesi
This chapter discusses the challenges posed by Syrian refugee problem (a multifaceted "mobility" problem especially hitting metropolitan cities) on urban planning practices and discourses in Turkey. Here, we portray the refugee problem as a multiscalar one, where international, national and local authorities meet the challenge in different ways. The multiscalar lens allows us to detect how various problem areas (security, sheltering, etc.) have become intertwined and concentrated on urban areas after refugee influx. In that regard, first we depict the role of "urban planning" in "governance of (refugee) mobility" in neoliberal era. Secondly, we briefly touch upon the historical association between the mobility patterns and urbanization in Turkey since 1923 to detect how public authorities (at different scales of governing) reacted to these mobilities. This historical analysis helps us locate the Syrian refugee problem into its proper context as an urban planning problem (not simply as an IR or security problem). Lastly, we discuss Syrian Refugee Crisis' challenges on urban areas and planning practices in Turkey by referring to its international, national and local governance. We conclude by summing up the key empirical and theoretical lessons drawn while also introducing analytical questions about the future direction of research.

Urbanisation and Urban Planning in Turkey
(Springer international Publishing Ag, 2019) Uzun, Nil; Sari, O. Burcu Ozdemir; Ozdemir, Suna S.; 05.03. Şehir ve Bölge Planlama; 05. Mimarlık Fakültesi; 01. Çankaya Üniversitesi
Urban and regional planning, as an institution, differs significantly from country to country depending on the legal and institutional contexts of each state. The significance of urban and regional planning increased in Turkey in 1923 following the foundation of the Republic. Economic policies executed by the government have always had an effect on urbanisation in Turkey. In fact, different economic policies and models applied since 1923 defined the different periods of urbanisation in the country. These periods also define the changes in urban and regional planning. There are basically four different models of economic development applied starting from 1923. Acentralised, state-dominated model was the first one, and it was implemented until the 1950s. Liberalisation, the second model, was adopted in the 1950s. Mechanisation in agriculture set off rural-to-urban migration, and the rate of urbanisation increased very rapidly. This period lasted until the 1980s when Turkey's economy underwent radical changes with the introduction of the privatisation model within the context of globalisation. The fourth period, starting after the general elections of 2002, can be considered a continuation of the third one. Economic and political changes in this period have had substantial implications for cities.
