SUSTAINABLE BUILDING RENOVATION PRACTICES: Simple additive weighting

Abstract

The concept of sustainability has become a priority in the decisions made by all disciplines today. In the field of architecture, sustainable decisions are incorporated at all stages, such as new construction, life cycle, demolition, and renovation. The reuse of buildings is considered a sustainable approach in this sense. In addition to the reuse of buildings, the renovation of existing buildings to gain sustainable identities also constitutes another step in sustainable architecture. In this study, sample buildings were evaluated based on parameters determined through a literature review within the scope of sustainable building renovation practices. The study included research and case studies on sustainable architecture, sustainable building renovation, and sustainable renovation practices. Sustainable building renovation methods were compiled using research studies conducted on the subject. After determining the parameters of sustainable building renovation through a literature review, structures with sustainable renovation practices were evaluated within the scope of this study. The sustainable renovation qualities of the buildings evaluated in the study were scored using the Simple Additive Weighting method. The aim of this study is to reveal the diversity of renovation processes based on the parameters determined through the studies conducted and to develop new proposals based on the structures examined. As a result of the study, sustainable renovation practices were evaluated based on the characteristics of the structures. In line with the findings obtained, the advantages of sustainable renovation processes in the life cycle of buildings have been emphasized, and recommendations have been developed within the scope of renovation.

SÜRDÜRÜLEBİLİR BİNA YENİLEME UYGULAMALARI: Basit toplamlı ağırlıklandırma

Abstract

Sürdürülebilirlik, günümüzde tüm disiplinlerin alacağı kararlarda öncelikli olan bir kavram haline gelmiştir. Mimarlık disiplininde de yeni inşa, yaşam döngüsü, yıkım, yenileme gibi tüm aşamalarda sürdürülebilir kararlara yer verilmektedir. Binaların yeniden kullanılması bu anlamda başlıca sürdürülebilir bir yaklaşım olarak karşılanmaktadır. Binaların yeniden kullanılmalarının yanı sıra mevcut binaların sürdürülebilir kimlikler kazanmak üzere yenilenmesi de bir diğer sürdürülebilir mimarlık adımını oluşturmaktadır. Bu çalışmada sürdürülebilir bina yenileme uygulamaları kapsamında literatür taraması yapılarak belirlenen parametreler doğrultusunda örnek yapılar değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışmada sürdürülebilir mimarlık, binaların sürdürülebilir yenilenmesi, sürdürülebilir yenileme uygulamaları kapsamında araştırmalar yapılarak örnek çalışmalara yer verilmiştir. Konu kapsamında yapılan araştırma çalışmalarından yararlanılarak sürdürülebilir bina yenileme yöntemleri bir araya getirilmiştir. Literatür taraması ile sürdürülebilir bina yenileme parametrelerinin belirlenmesinin ardından çalışma kapsamında sürdürülebilir yenileme uygulamaları bulunan yapılar değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışmada değerlendirilen yapıların sürdürülebilir yenileme nitelikleri, Basit Toplamlı Ağırlıklandırma (Simple Additive Weighting) yöntemi kullanılarak puanlandırılmıştır. Çalışmada amaçlanan, yapılan çalışmalar doğrultusunda belirlenen parametreler ile yenileme süreçleri için çeşitliliğin ortaya konması ve irdelenen yapılar üzerinden yeni önerilerin geliştirilmesidir. Çalışmanın sonucunda yapıların özelliklerine göre yapılan sürdürülebilir yenileme uygulamaları değerlendirilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular doğrultusunda binaların yaşam döngüsünde sürdürülebilir yenileme işlemlerinin avantajı vurgulanarak yenileme işlemleri kapsamında öneriler geliştirilmiştir.
