    A Neo-Structuralist Perspective on Architectural Theory of Post-Truth Era: Re-Constructing the Architect-Subject
    (Yildiz Technical Univ, Fac Architecture, 2022) Cavdar, Rabia Cigdem
    The fundamental aim of the article is to scrutinise the transformations and yet pseudo-disappearance of architectural theory with an archi-theoretical gaze. It is an attempt to reread/ write the architectural theory of the 21st century in the shade of the claim that architectural theory was dead. It is obvious that not only in architecture but also in all social-life structures, free-floating meanings began to invade the totality; every concept that constitutes societal life was dislocated after the digital turn. Concepts began to be depicted with the prefix 'pose; such as post-historical, post-humanist, post-political, post-ideological, post-theory, and even, 'post-truth'. Under these circumstances, the main argument of the article is that architecture could be run as a 'point de capitone' -in Lacanian terminology-, between the subject -described as the sublime object of ideology by Zizek- and the ideology; the role of architecture is to work as a stabiliser on/between the liquid surfaces/grounds. In the context of the main argument, the article is structured on three conceptual domains, which are that ideology, subject and architecture. Architecture as a point de capitone has a significant role in the reconstitution of incommensurable dialectic in the 'redoubling procedure; which works for both recreating the lost otherness, and providing social antagonism.

    Architectural Design - Structural System Conformity Problems Encountered in the Design and Application Processes of Stick Aluminium Curtain Wall Systems in Turkey
    (Gazi Univ, Fac Engineering Architecture, 2022) Ozmen, Cengiz; Saban, Muge
    Stick aluminium curtain wall (SACW) systems are common curtain wall systems in Turkey. These sytems offer many advantages including architectural variation, modular design, ease of production and assembly. Beside their architectural properties SACW systems create significant load effects on structural systems. These load effects include lateral loads such as seismic and wind loads as well as static vertical loads. This load transfer is not one way. The vertical and lateral displacements of building structures also act on curtain walls. Healthy load transfer between the SACW and the building depends on architectural decisions during the design and construction process. Due to their wide use SACW systems are prone to architectural mistakes. These mistakes often represent themselves at latter stages of the construction and require solutions which will affect the architectural characteristics and structural behavior of buildings. This study focuses on SACW design and construction processes to find the effects of architectural decisions on curtain wall behavior. Case studies that include architectural design mistakes are selected to classify and study the reasons and the solutions of these mistakes. The importance of cooperation between all the stakeholders including the architects and engineers is emphasized for the prevention of these mistakes.

    Artificial Intelligence Applications in Earthquake Resistant Architectural Design: Determination of Irregular Structural Systems With Deep Learning and Imageai Method
    (Gazi Univ, Fac Engineering Architecture, 2020) Bingol, Kaan; Akan, Asli Er; Ormecioglu, Hilal Tugba; Er, Arzu
    Although the architectural design process is carried out with the collaboration of experts who are experienced in many different areas from the main preferences to the detailing stage, the major decisions such as plan organization, mass design etc. are taken by the architect. Computer Aided Design (CAD) programs are generally effective after the major decisions of the design are taken. For this reason, it is common for the main decisions, taken during the design process, to be changed during the analysis of the structural system. In order to prevent this, in the early stages of architectural design, earthquake system awareness and structural system design should be included as an design input; as, the failure of the structural system which did not considered well in the architectural design phase leads to unexpected revisions in the implementation project phase and thus leads to serious losses in both time and cost. The aim of this study is to create an Irregularity Control Assistant (IC Assitant) that can provide architects general information about the appropriateness of structural system decisions to earthquake regulations in the early stages of design process by using the deep learning and image processing methods. In this way, correct decisions will be made in the early stages of the design and unexpected revisions that may occur during the implementation project phase will be prevented.

    A Research on Comparison of Elevator Traffic Analysis Methods in Educational Buildings
    (Gazi Univ, Fac Engineering Architecture, 2023) Harputlugil, Timucin; Deligoez, Dostcan; Deligöz, Dostcan
    Purpose: Regarding elevator design in educational buildings; It is aimed to investigate the legal framework, to integrate dynamic simulation programs to design process, to compare traditional and dynamic simulation methods, to evaluate the adequacy of elevator features specified in the legislation and to determine the optimum scenarios according to the minimum requirements.Theory and Methods: Based on the findings of the literature review, which examines the issue of elevator traffic analysis together with the legislation and regulations, the carrying capacities of the elevators in the educational buildings designed by the Ministry of National Education (MNE) are tested. The stability of the system is tested by analyzing the conditions where only the disabled, disabled and building workers can be used together and all building users can use the elevators with the dynamic simulation method (with Elevate Software). The limits of the system are determined based on the waiting times during the peak usage periods. The findings of the study are evaluated according to the waiting times determined by CIBSE Guide D and the Chamber of Mechanical Engineers followed by the discussion of the outcomes.Results: The issue of elevator design has been overlooked in educational buildings, and a comprehensive elevator traffic analysis method has not been defined. For the effective use of all occupants, elevator design should be handled comprehensively with considering potentials of dynamic simulation method.Conclusion: According to the findings of the study, it is noted that the number and capacity of elevators in the legislation for educational buildings are determined only for minimum conditions and for disabled users. In addition, the legislation (considering calculation methodology) is not specific for educational buildings but related with buildings in general with public use. Considering the occupants, and their profiles of the educational buildings, a more comprehensive traffic analysis with the dynamic simulation method may enable the elevators to be designed and to be used more efficiently.

    Effects of Sound Absorption Materials on Reverberation Time According To Their Positions in the Square Plan and High Ceiling Rooms
    (Gazi Univ, Fac Engineering Architecture, 2021) Kurtay, Cuneyt; Harputlugil, Gulsu Ulukavak; Yaman, Muammer
    In rooms with speech action, subjective and objective room acoustics parameters should be considered in the creation of acoustic performance. In this study, an evaluation has been made over the reverberation time for the speech action of the existing Iraq-Najaf Islamic University Alawiya Conference Hall. Within the scope of the study, the control of the reverberation time affecting the subjective and objective room acoustics parameters has been examined, the relationship between the reverberation time and the surface absorptions of the room have been examined. Reverberation time on existing situation was determined by making in situ measurements. In order to control the reverberation time of the existing hall, the materials selected according to the sound absorption coefficients have been positioned differently and alternative models have been developed. The reverberation times of the alternative models were determined using the ECOTECT v.5.20 computer simulation program used for acoustic analysis, and their geometric acoustics analysis was performed using the ray tracing method. By comparing the models, the surface absorptions have been analyzed to obtain the appropriate reverberation time in room for speech action. As a result of the study, the effects of the use of walls, ceiling and floor finishing materials and surface absorptions on the reverberation time have been evaluated within the scope of improvement for speech action in the halls with square plan, flat floor and high ceiling (min 6 m).

    Analytic Hierarchy Process (Ahp) as an Assessment Approach for Architectural Design: Case Study of Architectural Design Studio
    (Konya Technical Univ, Fac Architecture & design, 2018) Harputlugil, Timucin
    Architectural design is complex and can be defined as an effective decision-making activity based on problem solving. This complexity is not based on content and volume of problems, but also heterogeneity and uncertainty of information provided for assessment, subjective approaches, and a large number of the criterion for assessment. The aim of this research paper is to contribute to the researches for assessment of architectural design by providing a novel approach based on Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) - a Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) method. The approach supports an effective comparative analysis among the alternative projects based on determined criterion. The methodology is implemented with a case study in one of the design studios of Department of Architecture of Cankaya University on final design projects of a group of students with observation, research and assessment. The data used in the assessment is collected through interviews and surveys which is analysed by the help of a software. Based on the outcomes of the AHP-based approach, it has been seen that this approach can provide numerical results that are comparable, measurable, gradable, consistent and can be reported separately for each assessor. However, it has also been found that the AHP-based method is suitable for evaluating only a limited number of projects. With the research, and by setting thresholds levels for evaluation, it has become clear that successful and unsuccessful projects can be separated for achievement and competence. Consequently, it has been observed that the approach has considerable potentials to be further developed to evaluate architectural projects comparatively, especially for architectural students' projects, and other architectural projects such as architectural design competitions.
