Abstract

Humanity has experienced many changes and developments throughout history. These developments have emerged to increase the comfort of people in social life. With each development, new requirements emerged, and the necessity to continue them was the natural result. One of these is the Industrial Revolution which is the crucial trigger and the results affecting our day of technological developments. With this, the concept of energy and its sustainability has been discussed. Although energy has always been the most important need of people, with this revolution, there has been concern about the continuity of the living environment. Although the concept of environmental sustainability was introduced to the literature in the 1980s, the examples, where the idea has been applied are seen throughout history. Ankara Aslanhane (Ahi Şerafettin) mosque is one of them and was built in the 13th century. It has important features that come from the structural material and architectural details for the period it was built in terms of energy efficiency and management. This article aims to analyze the structural features of the Aslanhane (Ahi Şerafettin) mosque and to discuss what can be done to integrate contemporary technologies according to its requirements.

Abstract

İnsanlık tarih boyunca birçok değişim ve gelişme yaşamıştır. Bu gelişmeler insanların yaşam, alışveriş, eğitim ve ibadet alanlarındaki konforunu artırmak için ortaya çıkmıştır. Her gelişme ile birlikte yeni ihtiyaçlar ortaya çıkmış ve bunları sürdürme kaygısı oluşmuştur. Günümüzü etkileyen en önemli değişimlerden biri olan sanayi devrimi ile birlikte enerji kavramı ve sürdürülebilirliği tartışılmaya başlanmıştır. Enerji her zaman insanların en önemli ihtiyacı olmasına rağmen yaşanan bu devrimle birlikte yaşanılan çevrenin devamlılığı konusunda kaygılar oluşmaya başlamıştır. Çevresel sürdürülebilirlik kavramı literatüre 1980'lerde girmiştir. Ancak kavramın uygulandığı örnekler tarih boyunca görülmektedir. Ankara Aslanhane (Ahi Şerafettin) camii de bunlardan biridir ve 13. yüzyılda yapılmıştır. Enerji verimliliği ve yönetimi açısından yapıldığı dönem için önemli özelliklere sahiptir. Bu makale, Aslanhane (Ahi Şerafettin) camisinin özelliklerini incelemeyi ve çağdaş teknolojileri entegre etmek için neler yapılabileceğini tartışmayı amaçlamaktadır.
