Restoration Project For The Summer Residence Of Princess Atiye

Tez (Yüksek Lisans) -- İstanbul Teknik Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2004Thesis (M.Sc.) -- İstanbul Technical University, Institute of Science and Technology, 2004Bu çalışmanın amacı, uzun süredir kullanılmayan Prenses Atiye Köşkü’ nün kullanım olasılıklarını araştırarak yapıya uygun bir fonksiyon belirlemek ve bunun için yapılması gerekli müdahaleleri saptamaktır. Çalışma yapının bugünkü durumunu belgeleyen rölöve, özgün halini ve zaman içindeki değişimleri gösteren restitüsyon ve önerilen işlev doğrultusunda yapılacak teknik müdahaleleri açıklayan restorasyon projelerinin hazırlanmasını kapsamaktadır. Vaziyet planı 1/500, plan, kesit ve görünüşler 1/50 tekniğindedir. Tavan ve duvarlardaki alçı bezemeler 1/20 tekniğinde çizilmiştir. Yapıda kullanılan malzemeler, farklı dönemler ve hasarlar çizimler üzerinde lejantla gösterilmiştir. Çalışmanın metin kısmında öncelikle köşkün bulunduğu çevre ve Türk Evi ile ilgili yazılı ve görsel kaynaklardan edinilen bilgiler ortaya konmuş; bu çevrede, aynı dönemde inşa edilmiş olan benzer yapılar belirlenerek üslup özellikleri araştırılmıştır. Prenses Atiye Köşkü’ nün detaylı tanımı da çizimler ve fotoğraflara referans gönderilerek yapılmıştır.The objective of this study is to find a suitable function for the Summer Residence of Princess Atiye and to determine the interventions to be made. The scope of the work is to prepare measured drawings presenting the extant state of the building, a restitution project showing the original structure and the alterations that have been made throughout time and a restoration project explaining the necessary technical interventions. The site plan is in the scale of 1/500 whereas plans, sections and elevations 1/50. Decoration on the ceilings and walls are drawn in the scale of 1/20. Analysis concerning the chronology, materials, and deteriorations are made and indicated with legends on the scaled drawings. In the text, information on the environs of the residence and the ‘Turkish House’ is gathered. In addition similar buildings and their architectural styles are studied. A detailed description of the Summer Residence of Princess Atiye is made, referencing the measured drawings and photographs.Yüksek LisansM.Sc

1755 Lisbon earthquake and protection of cultural heritage from future earthquakes / With a comparative study about earthquake and risk preparedness in Istanbul

The 1755 Lisbon Earthquake, with an estimated magnitude of Mw ≈ 8.5, was one of the greatest earthquakes in history. It caused considerable damage in Lisbon, mainly concentrated in the Downtown due to the existence of densely arranged buildings on narrow streets; and on monumental structures due to the predominant earthquake frequencies. The ground movement was followed by a tsunami and fire, which increased the loss, both in terms of built environment and of human lives. Following the earthquake, Marquês de Pombal was given the responsibility for dealing with the emergency response, and later for the reconstruction of Lisbon. The survey known after his name and the answers given by the priests, provide even today an important source for studying the aftermath of the event. For the reconstruction of the city, Baixa and Chiado districts -which were almost completely destroyed- were razed, and rebuilt according to a new plan incorporating an orthogonal pattern with wider streets for increased safety. The buildings were constructed in a system called the Gaiola Pombalina, which wasn’t a new invention but an intelligent solution that could be “prefabricated”, and therefore correspond to a large-scale rebuilding process
