The paper aims to investigate the effect of vertical ground motion on damage propagations of historical masonry slender tall rectangular stone minarets numerically. The Ulu Mosque minaret with height of 42.90 m constructed in 639 in Diyarbakır, Turkey, is selected as an application. Firstly, three dimensional solid and continuum finite element models of the minaret are obtained from the surveys. Since the foundation of the minaret is sitted on the hard soil, soil-structure interaction is not considered in the finite element model. The finite element model of the minaret is updated by modal analyses results and an empirical frequency formulation developed using the measurement results. Mechanical material properties of the masonry unit are determined using the properties of the stone and mortar used in the minaret. Concrete damaged plasticity (CDP) material model adjusted to masonry structures is considered in the nonlinear analyses. The acceleration records of horizontal (N-S) and vertical (V) components of May 1, 2003 Bingöl earthquake (Mw = 6.4), which was recorded in hard soil and occurred in the near region of Diyarbakır city, are chosen as a strong ground motion. Then, linear time history and nonlinear step by step seismic analyses of the minaret are implemented for only horizontal, and combined horizontal and vertical components of the earthquake. The time histories of displacements, minimum and maximum principal strains and stresses, and damage propagations on the minaret are compared for only horizontal, and combined horizontal and vertical load cases including self-weight. It can be stated that consideration of vertical ground motion component in combination with horizontal component affects damage percentages and propagations on slender tall rectangular stone minarets.

This structure located outside the courtyard of Sheikh Mutahhar Mosque and inside the Dört Ayaklı Minare Street was built on a monolithic stone column from basalt material in a tetragon plan and is carried by four columns that are in cylindrical form. After 2015, partial damages occurred to the minaret. During the restoration works carried out between 2016-2019, these partial damages were tried to be repaired. But the condition of the ground was not instrumentally detected and investigated in these restoration works. In the present study, observational geological and instrumental geophysical studies were carried out on the Four-Legged Minaret and its surrounding area. The ground condition of the Four-Legged Minaret and the situation of its construction materials were determined by scannings ach...

Savur geleneksel kent dokusu, iki tepenin çevresindeki yerleşim alanlarından oluşmaktadır. Kalesi, topografyaya göre biçimlenmiş sokakları, dini yapıları, konakları ve evleri ile geleneksel yerleşim düzeninin özgün değerlerini yansıtmaktadır. Spontane olarak, organik bir dokuda gelişen kentin ana elemanları geleneksel evlerdir. Güneydoğu Anadolu Bölgesi geleneksel mimarisinin genel özelliklerini gösteren Savur evleri; aile yapısı, ekonomik yapı, kültürel etkileşim, iklim, topografya, jeolojik yapı ve malzemenin etkisiyle biçimlenmiştir. Evlerin birçoğu, ilk sahiplerinin torunları tarafından kullanılmaktadır. Geleneksel yaşam ve kültürel yapı devam etmektedir. Geleneksel kent dokusu ve evleri; nüfus artışı, çarpık kentleşme, yanlış restorasyonlar, bakımsızlık ve ilgisizlikten dolayı özgün değerlerini günden güne yitirmektedir. İlçede çok sayıda geleneksel konut olmasına rağmen, çok az sayıda (12) tescilli konut vardır. Koruma Planı olmayan Savur'un, kültürel birikiminin çağdaş yöntemlerle araştırılması ve tespit edilmesi, çözülmesi gereken sorunların başında gelmektedir. Bu çalışma kapsamında, öncelikle Savur'daki tüm geleneksel konutlar tespit edilmiştir. Tespit edilen evler detaylı bir biçimde araştırılarak; Savur'un geleneksel kent dokusu, genel yerleşim özellikleri ile geleneksel evlerin mimari özellikleri; plan düzeni, plan tipleri, cephe düzeni, cephe elemanları ve yapısal sistem incelenmiştir.

This province has been included in the UNESCO Cultural Heritage List thanks to its city walls and Hevsel Gardens. The city walls in the Diyarbakir was built by masonry construction technique with using basalt stone like many other structures available in the city such as churches, mosques, guard towers, madrasahs, inns, etc. The Diyarbakir province has been home to many civilizations, cultures, and religions. Therefore, the traces from many different civilizations, cultures, and religions can be observed inside the city walls. Since the Diyarbakir City Walls were included in the UNESCO Cultural Heritage List, any investigation going to be conducting on the city walls should be either by observational methods or by nondestructive testing (NDT) techniques. For this reason, the determination of the structural performance of city walls was done by carrying out the NDT techniques such as crack opening, ultrasonic velocity and time, levelness, temperature-humidity measurement, and ground penetration radar tests. Monthly changes over the 1-year period were measured from the different places of Urfa Gate, which is one of four main gates of the city walls. The results indicated that both ultrasonic velocity and time were influenced by seasonal changes. The basalt stones having the cracks require to be urgently renewed since it was observed decreasing in the ultrasonic pulse velocity of the basalt stone. Nevertheless, no remarkable effect of temperature on the integrity of the city walls and no significant effect of seasonal changes on levelness were observed. Besides, it was noticed that the highest crack opening values were measured in the autumn season while the lowest values were measured during the summer months. In addition to all, the radar images verified that on the foundation and ground there were no settlements and damages.

Yerlesim duzeni, mimarisi basta olmak uzere bircok yonden Mardin’le benzerlik gostermektedir (Yasayan Tarih Mardin, 2000). Ilcenin kent dokusu, karsilikli iki tepenin cevresindeki yerlesim alanindan olusmaktadir. Topografyaya gore bicimlenmis sokaklar, carsi, meydan, sosyal ve kamu yapilari, konaklar, evler geleneksel yerlesim duzeninin ozgun degerlerini yansitmaktadir. Bolgenin cografik ozellikleri ile asiret sistemine dayanan toplumsal yasam, kentin bicimlenmesindeki en onemli iki etmendir. Gunumuzde de varligini hissettiren bu etmenler, kentsel ve kulturel surekliligin ana dayanagidir. Geleneksel kent dokusu icindeki konaklar ve evler topografya, malzeme, yapim teknigi, kulturel degerler gibi bolgesel etkenlerin yaninda Turk – Islam aile yapisi, endustri oncesi sehrin nitelikleri gibi genel etkenlerin belirleyiciliginde olusmustur.

Coğrafik ve iklimsel zenginliği ile de Anadolu, farklı yapı türlerinin oluşumunu sağlayan malzeme ve yapım tekniği konusunda önemli bir yapı sanatı yelpazesi sunmaktadır.

Yerlesim duzeni, mimarisi basta olmak uzere bircok yonden Mardin’le benzerlik gostermektedir (Yasayan Tarih Mardin, 2000). Ilcenin kent dokusu, karsilikli iki tepenin cevresindeki yerlesim alanindan olusmaktadir. Topografyaya gore bicimlenmis sokaklar, carsi, meydan, sosyal ve kamu yapilari, konaklar, evler geleneksel yerlesim duzeninin ozgun degerlerini yansitmaktadir. Bolgenin cografik ozellikleri ile asiret sistemine dayanan toplumsal yasam, kentin bicimlenmesindeki en onemli iki etmendir. Gunumuzde de varligini hissettiren bu etmenler, kentsel ve kulturel surekliligin ana dayanagidir. Geleneksel kent dokusu icindeki konaklar ve evler topografya, malzeme, yapim teknigi, kulturel degerler gibi bolgesel etkenlerin yaninda Turk – Islam aile yapisi, endustri oncesi sehrin nitelikleri gibi genel etkenlerin belirleyiciliginde olusmustur. Koklu bir gecmisi olan bugunku nufus, gunumuzde de varligini devam ettirerek...

The bridge was demolished for an unknown reason and at an unknown period. Only a few portions of the bridge (the foundations and the piers) remain today. The bridge has not been repaired since it was discovered, according to reports. As a result, the structure’s remaining portions, particularly the cut stone blocks, are original and provide valuable information about the period’s construction processes and material selection. In this study, it is aimed to assess the provenance, petrographic and physicomechanical characterization of the stones used in the construction of the bridge. In order to achieve this, samples were collected from the downstream and the upstream sections of the piers. In addition to the bridge, samples were collected from the possible quarries in the vicinity. Stable isotope analyses were carried out on seven samples to petrographically characterize the stones used in the bridge and to determine their provenances. The findings indicate that the stones used in the downstream and upstream sections are significantly different both in petrographic and physicomechanical aspects. Stable isotope analyses, on the other hand, reveal that the stones used in the structure originated from nearby quarries.
