Şekil verilebilme özelliği yüksek, esnek veya rijit olarak üretilebildikleri için kullanım alanı da geniştir. Plastiklerin günümüzden her sektöründe kullanılması, atık miktarının da her geçen gün kaçınılmaz olarak artması anlamına gelmektedir. Plastik atıklarının azaltımına yönelik en önemli çözüm, kaynakta azaltma yöntemi olup, sonrasında ise yeniden kullanım ve geri dönüşümdür. Mümkün olduğunca düşük tüketim sonrasında kullanım ömrünü tamamlayan plastik atıkların yeniden kullanılması ya da yapıda veya çeşitli sektörlerde farklı işlevlerde geri dönüşümü, atık azaltımını güçlendiren yöntemler arasında görülmektedir. Plastik tüketiminin azaltılması, kullanılmış plastik ürünlerin sektöre döndürülmesi atık oranının azaltılmasının yanı sıra ülke ekonomisi bağlamında da büyük önem arz etmektedir. Çalışma kapsamında Türkiye'de plastik kullanımının niceliği ve atık plastiklerin azaltılmasına yönelik yöntemlere yer verilirken, plastik atıkların azaltılmasına yönelik atık plastik kullanılarak üretilen kompozit malzeme çalışmaları ve yapıda kullanım olanakları detaylı bir literatür çalışması ile ele alınmıştır.

More economical composite laminated materials, which use different types of wood together and have the strength suitable for the purpose, can be produced with this technique. In the present study, composite laminated specimens containing beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky), a type of hardwood, and poplar (Populus nigra), a softwood, were produced with layers of two thicknesses: 4 and 5 mm. Poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) and polyurethane (PU) glues were used in gluing. The results of the tests were compared with those for the solid wood specimens, and it was found that new composite building materials with high mechanical strength and lower cost could be produced for the construction materials sector in Turkey instead of solid wood. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Ten and 13 layer laminated samples were produced in different thickness veneers of both species using two types of resins, namely polyvinylacetate (PVAc) and polyurethane (PU). Based on the results of this study it was found that layer thickness did not influence the withdrawal strength in transverse direction but strength values increased with increasing specific gravity of the samples in this direction. Overall strength properties in radial direction were found to be higher than that of tangential direction. Based on the statistical analyses resin type did not significantly effect withdrawal strength of both species.

The work builds on an earlier study, presented at the Building Simulation 2007 conference, which analysed the sensitivity of an existing scheme that had indeed been applied in all different climate zones, with different degrees of success. This follow-on project goes one step further and attempts to develop a new, more thermally robust school outline design. The underlying research bases itself on building performance simulation, using the ESP-r simulation engine and applying global sensitivity analysis (Monte Carlo Method) to assess the robustness of different design variants in a large, multidimensional option space of outline design parameters. The outcome of the study is an outline design concept called Modulsco that is significantly more robust than the current general scheme. Overall, this paper demonstrates how building simulation can contribute to the pre-design of better (school) buildings. It is hoped that the scheme will help make these future buildings more comfortable and more energy efficient.

For this study, paperboard obtained from waste paper was laminated with natural wooden layers in accordance with the order of beech-paperboard-beech-paperboard-beech and an alternate material was produced. In this context, experiments were made for determining the specific gravity, compression, shearing, bending strength, elasticity module, and the resistance to direct withdrawal of screws and nails on a radial section surface with the objective of determining the usability of this material as a building material. When the findings obtained at the end of the experiments are studied carefully in a comparative manner, it was observed that paperboard laminated materials could be used with different objectives in interiors to protect against humidity. It was determined that it could be used in place of solid poplar materia...

The starting point of the study is; searching the integration method of architectural systems. Nowadays because of the increasing demand of energy and decreasing of present energy sources make the usage of alternative energy sources necessary. For this reason, it is provided to deal with renewable energies as sub-systems which satisfies the integration between building and ecosystem. In this context, 3 building example in which integrated wind turbines are used is determined, then it is tried to determine the integration potentials, design and process features between architectural design and building form. Within this detection study, shape of the placement of wind turbines and architectural design criterias of buildings is analyzed with PhotoshopPortable and Autocad 2009 programs. Eventually, in this study it is introduced that the integration potential of wind turbines is related with building form (In Turkish)

These weaknesses are their poor resistance to water and earthquake effects. This study has been conducted in order to determine the point achieved in earthquake resistance issues and how our standards may be developed. Data are accessed using literature survey method; three different earth construction techniques by “adobe blocks”, “rammed earth wall” and “compressed earth blocks” are studied under the main titles material properties, building structure and geometric form, which are effective in earthquake resistance. It is observed that the Turkish Standards contain adobe material and construction technique, describing only cement and straw as additives, and perpendicular cornered structures as building forms. However, studies indicate that buildings with circular form and/or chamfered corners are much more resistant to earthquake loads. In addition, according to mechanical resistance gypsum-stabilized adobe is more sufficient for use. The study states that timber should be preferred for supporting the basic structural system just as in the past and in the contemporary concept of sustainability. Within this context, the outcome is that the existing Turkish standards need some revisions. The conclusion part of the study puts the criteria and parameters that should be incorporated in the revisions.

In addition, residential buildings cover more than 50% of the total area of any city in Libya. For the city of Tripoli as a case study, the growth of the city has increased due to the growth of the Libyan economy as well as due to high oil prices during the 1970s. As a result, there has been an increase in natural population growth as well as migration from neighbouring cities. To accommodate population growth, governments have implemented a number of development projects, particularly in the housing sector. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the satisfaction of housing users in accordance with the previous housing policies of successive Libyan governments. The data was collected by means of questionnaires concerning the social aspects of housing occupants and their suitability for the Libyan family both currently and in the future. Moreover, there remains the question of what characteristics should be taken into account when implementing future housing projects. The study included cases of housing projects implemented for the purpose of assessing the satisfaction of users with projects to implement the principles of "Sustainable Housing." The survey included four residential projects carried out in the city of Tripoli for the research. The sites are: (i) Airport Road East Housing Project (ii) Al Hadba Khdra Housing Project (iii) Ghot Ash-Ahaal Housing Project (iv) Souq-Atolata (North) Housing Project. The paper also aims to benefit from the study results for the implementation of the "Sustainable Housing Policy in Libya: A Case Study of Tripoli" for the purpose of applying the principles of social sustainability to housing, especially in Tripoli and Libya in general. Additionally, this paper will be useful for planning and architectural professionals.

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-ef...

Bu endüstrilerin üretim ve ürünün kullanım sonrası evresinde çok miktarda atık meydana gelmektedir. Demir-çelik endüstrisinin üretim evresi atıklarından en problemli atık, yüksek fırın baca tozu (YFBT) atığıdır. Kullanım oranını her geçen gün artıran plastikler kullanım ömrünü doldurduğunda yüksek bozunma süresinden dolayı doğada uzun yıllar atık olarak kalabilmektedir. Türkiye'de ve dünyada en fazla kullanım hacmine sahip plastik türü ise düşük yoğunluklu polietilen (LDPE)'dir. Bu atıkların geri kazanımı, çevre problemlerinin azaltılması ve ürünlerin ülke ekonomisine kazandırılması açısından önemlidir. Bu çalışmada LDPE ve YFBT ekstrüzyon yöntemiyle bir araya getirilmiş ve kompozit granül üretilmiştir. Üretilen kompozit granüller enjeksiyon yöntemiyle şekillendirilmiş, mekanik özellikleri incelenmiş ve elde edilen kompozit malzemenin yapıda zemin kaplama malzemesi olarak kullanılabileceği belirlenmiştir.

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-ef...

Bu endüstrilerin üretim ve ürünün kullanım sonrası evresinde çok miktarda atık meydana gelmektedir. Demir-çelik endüstrisinin üretim evresi atıklarından en problemli atık, yüksek fırın baca tozu (YFBT) atığıdır. Kullanım oranını her geçen gün artıran plastikler kullanım ömrünü doldurduğunda yüksek bozunma süresinden dolayı doğada uzun yıllar atık olarak kalabilmektedir. Türkiye'de ve dünyada en fazla kullanım hacmine sahip plastik türü ise düşük yoğunluklu polietilen (LDPE)'dir. Bu atıkların geri kazanımı, çevre problemlerinin azaltılması ve ürünlerin ülke ekonomisine kazandırılması açısından önemlidir. Bu çalışmada LDPE ve YFBT ekstrüzyon yöntemiyle bir araya getirilmiş ve kompozit granül üretilmiştir. Üretilen kompozit granüller enjeksiyon yöntemiyle şekillendirilmiş, mekanik özellikleri incelenmiş ve elde edilen kompozit malzemenin yapıda zemin kaplama malzemesi olarak kullanılabileceği belirlenmiştir.
