Mimarlık Stüdyolarında Öğrencilerin İç Hava Kalitesi Memnuniyetinin Değerlendirilmesi

Öz

Mimarlık öğrencileri, eğitim hayatlarının büyük bir bölümünü mimarlıkta tasarım eğitiminin yapısının oluştuğu stüdyolarda geçirmektedir. Mimari stüdyoların iç çevre kalitesi unsurlarından biri olan hava kalitesi de öğrencilerin performansını ve refahını etkilemektedir. Mimarlar, memnuniyet düzeylerini ölçerek kullanıcıların konforunu ve sağlığını ön planda tutan mekânlar tasarlayarak bina performansını artırabilirler. Bu çalışmada, Mimarlık Bölümü için tasarlanan yeni stüdyo ve daha önce stüdyo olarak kullanılan sınıfın hava kalitesinden duyulan memnuniyet, bu mekânları deneyimleyen 190 öğrenci arasında yapılan bir anketle ölçülmüş ve hava kalitesi açısından değerlendirilmiştir. Anket sonuçlarına göre öğrencilere hava kalitesinin göstergesi sayılabilecek sağlık belirtileri, koku, toz, nem, temizlik periyotları ve havalandırma olanakları gibi hava kalitesinin önemli unsurları sorularak eski ve yeni bina arasındaki farklar ortaya konmuştur. Sonuç olarak, tasarım kararlarının iç ortam kalitesini belirli bir seviyeye kadar doğrudan etkilediği ve kullanıcı memnuniyetinde önemli bir faktör olduğu tespit edilmiştir.

Indoor Air Quality Satisfaction Assessment of Students in Architecture Studios

Abstract

Architectural students spend most of their educational life in the studios where the structure of design education in architecture is formed. Air quality, which is one of the indoor environmental quality elements of the architectural studios, also affects the performance and well-being of students. Architects can improve building performance by designing spaces that prioritize users' comfort and health by measuring satisfaction levels. In this study, the satisfaction with the air quality of the new studio designed for the Department of Architecture and the classroom previously used as a studio were measured with a survey conducted among 190 students who experienced these spaces, and the design was evaluated in terms of air quality. Based on the results of the questionnaire, the differences between the old and the new building were revealed by asking the students about the health symptoms that can be considered as indicators of air quality, significant elements of air quality such as odor, dust, humidity, cleaning periods and ventilation facilities. As a result, it has been determined that design decisions directly affect the indoor environment quality to a certain level and are an important factor in user satisfaction.
