Then, the results obtained from these two types of school buildings were compared. Following the analysis, these two buildings were strengthened by adding reinforced concrete shear wall and by using column jacket technique. The cost of construction was calculated according to unit construction method based on the pricing list in 2007. The essential data were obtained for the static analysis of the buildings, and they were put under analysis and, thus, the concrete shear walls to be added and the columns to be jacketed were determined. In conclusion, following the calculation of the construction cost and strengthening cost, the two cost types were compared. It was found that the rate of the strengthening cost to the construction cost was between 32% and 40%.

These are lungs, vocal cords and mouth. Due to the structure of these organs and the similarity of the person with their current language, they can speak another language with different accent. A language can be spoken in different parts of the same country and in different countries. The second most widely used language in the world is English, has numerous accents around the world. In this study, it is aimed to determine which country the English accent spoken in different regions belongs to. In the dataset used, there are 330 sound samples including English accents spoken in Spain, France, Germany, Italy, England and America. Classification has been made with 12 features obtained by Mel Frequency Cepstrum Coefficients feature extraction method. k-Nearest Neighbor (kNN) were used in the classification and 87.2% success was achieved.

Literatürde cam lif takviyeli betonun (CTB) mekanik özelliklerinin tespitine yönelik çok sayıda araştırma yapılmıştır. Beton içine cam lifi eklenerek özellikle betonun eğilme ve çekme dayanımında hatırı sayılır artışlar meydana gelmekte, bu şekilde üretilmiş olan betonlar daha ince kesitli oldukları için de uygulamada tercih edilmektedirler. Betonun içine eklenen cam lifinin betonun yangın performansına olumsuz bir etki yapıp yapmadığına yönelik kapsamlı bir araştırma olmadığı için bu çalışmada dört farklı (30,60, 90 ve 120 dk) yangın sürelerine tabi tutulmuş cam lif takviyesiz beton ile CTB elemanlarının yangın sonrasındaki mekanik özelliklerindeki değişiklikler incelenmiştir. Deneysel çalışma kapsamında Ø15/30 cm silindir ve 4x4x16 cm prizmadan oluşan toplam 300 adet numune üretilmiştir. Numunelerde kullanılan 0,5,10,15 ve 20 kg/m 3 oranlarındaki cam elyaf takviyeli betonların değişik sürelerde yangın sonrasındaki basınç ve üç farklı çekme (yarma, tek noktadan eğilme ve iki noktadan eğilme) dayanımı üzerindeki etkisi farklı sürelerde yangına maruz bırakılan CTB elemanları üzerinden test edilmiştir. Yangın geçirmemiş numunelerde cam lifi basınç dayanımına bir katkıda bulunmazken çekme dayanımında önemli oranlarda katkısı olmuştur. 30 dakikalık yangın sonrasında CTB numunelerin tek ve çift noktadan eğilme deneylerinden elde edilen çekme dayanımlarında yangın öncesine göre bir artış görülmüştür. Daha uzun süreli yangınlarda (60, 90 ve 120 dk) ise bu oranda bir artış meydana gelmemiştir.

For this reason, 3 different prototype walls were produced which had the same geometrical properties with exact dimensions. The results of mechanical behaviours such as first crack, failure behaviour, ductility, energy consumption formed in these walls were investigated and compared. As a result, it was observed that masonry walls failure by forming failure lines are similar to yield lines formed in reinforced concrete floor under reverse-cycling out of plane loads, the kind of failure is brittle and they do not have the ductility that yield lines have. It was also observed that, model wall and the wall constructed by application of horizontal joint reinforcement with epoxy resin-FRP provided more strength by 25% increase than reference wall. Moreover, it was determined that, the ductility in reference wall is 41% more than the one in model wall and 48% more than the wall reinforced with epoxy resin-FRP and the reference wall consumes 25 and 22% more energy than the model wall and the wall reinforced with epoxy resin-FRP, respectively. All these studies showed that when this method is applied, an increase in strength and a decrease in ductility could be obtained against earthquakes. In other words, while the construction gets reinforced against earthquakes, its failure (rigidity) increases.

For this purpose, L27(313) Taguchi orthogonal design was used for the derivation of the parameter combinations. A total of 108 timber specimens made of 3 different natural timber types having 3 different sizes had been coated with fire retardant varnish and boron impregnation. Specimens were tested for three different fire classes and temperatures. The values of charring rate were obtained from fire tests according to the orthogonal design. Obtained results were analyzed using the signal-to-noise ratio, analysis of variance methods and 3D surface plots. It was concluded that the type of timber and specimen section are the most significant factors affecting the charring rate. The second significant factor affecting the charring rate was found to be the duration and temperature of fire. Lastly, coating material is the third important factor influencing the charring rate.

For this reason, there have been numerous methods developed to extinguish the fire. Within the scope of this study, a sound wave flame extinction system was developed in order to extinguish the flames at an early stage of the fire. The data used in the study were obtained as a result of experiments conducted with the developed system. The created dataset consists of data obtained from 17,442 experiments. It is aimed to classify the fuel type, flame size, decibel, frequency, airflow and distance features, and the extinction-non-extinction status of the flame through rule-based machine learning methods. In the study, rule-based machine learning methods, ANFIS (Adaptive-Network Based Fuzzy Inference Systems), CN2 Rule and DT (Decision Tree) were used. The methods of Box Plot, Scatter Plot and Correlation Analysis were utilized for statistical analysis of the data. As a result of the classifications, respectively, 94.5%, 99.91%, and 97.28% success were achieved with the ANFIS, CN2 Rule, and DT methods. As a result of the evaluations made by using Box Plot, Scatter Plot and Correlation Analysis.

For this reason, there have been numerous methods developed to extinguish the fire. Within the scope of this study, a sound wave flame extinction system was developed in order to extinguish the flames at an early stage of the fire. The data used in the study were obtained as a result of experiments conducted with the developed system. The created dataset consists of data obtained from 17,442 experiments. It is aimed to classify the fuel type, flame size, decibel, frequency, airflow and distance features, and the extinction-non-extinction status of the flame through rule-based machine learning methods. In the study, rule-based machine learning methods, ANFIS (Adaptive-Network Based Fuzzy Inference Systems), CN2 Rule and DT (Decision Tree) were used. The methods of Box Plot, Scatter Plot and Correlation Analysis were utilized for statistical analysis of the data. As a result of the classifications, respectively, 94.5%, 99.91%, and 97.28% success were achieved with the ANFIS, CN2 Rule, and DT methods. As a result of the evaluations made by using Box Plot, Scatter Plot and Correlation Analysis.

Then, the results obtained from these two types of school buildings were compared. Following the analysis, these two buildings were strengthened by adding reinforced concrete shear wall and by using column jacket technique. The cost of construction was calculated according to unit construction method based on the pricing list in 2007. The essential data were obtained for the static analysis of the buildings, and they were put under analysis and, thus, the concrete shear walls to be added and the columns to be jacketed were determined. In conclusion, following the calculation of the construction cost and strengthening cost, the two cost types were compared. It was found that the rate of the strengthening cost to the construction cost was between 32% and 40%.

It was observed that, software meet the requirements in an example application and the process of the firms which are participating the awarding is done quickly and correctly. Analysis of unit price of 60 thousand items published by involving institutions. Calculation of quantity of items according to the previous analysis, and calculation of the total cost of these items was aimed.By using developed software, total cost of full construction work is calculated with 100% accuracy and present pricing was used when the calculation was made.
