Abstract

Kinetic façade systems, which increase the comfort of the occupants by interacting with the external environment and/or occupants interior space thanks to their adaptability function, and providing high daylight performance on the façade and energy efficiency throughout the life cycle of the building, offer efficient and effective solutions, as a sunshade shell. The optimum adaptability performance of the sunshade components that form the kinetic façade depends on the design and design process of these façades. In this context, in the design process where the morphological (physical-formal) structure of the kinetic facade is modeled and its kinetic transformation is designed, its functional properties are determined and performance analyzes have happened; The design approaches adopted, the design systems used and the design procedures created by the tools, methods, and techniques required by these systems gain importance. Within the scope of the study, it is aimed to reveal the relationship between the performance-based design of kinetic facade systems and the design process. For this purpose, comparative analysis and evaluation of the kinetic facade design samples were determined after the literature review has been done.In the conclusion section of the study, general determinations were made about performance-based optimum kinetic facade design and design process based on the findings, and the lack of studies on the design of these systems in the literature was mentioned and it was suggested that design methods and approaches in this field should be increased and developed.

Kinetik Cephe Sistemlerinin Performansa Dayalı Tasarımı ve Tasarım Süreci

Abstract

Uyarlanabilir olma fonksiyonu sayesinde dış çevreyle ve/veya iç mekandaki kullanıcılarla etkileşime girip cephede günışığına bağlı yüksek performans ve binanın yaşam döngüsü boyunca enerji etkinliği sağlayarak kullanıcıların konforunu arttıran kinetik cephe sistemleri, güneş kırıcı bir kabuk olarak verimli ve efektif çözümler sunmaktadır. Kinetik cepheyi oluşturan güneş kırıcı bileşenlerin optimum uyarlanabilirlik performansını göstermesi, bu cephelerin tasarımına ve tasarım sürecine bağlıdır. Bu bağlamda, kinetik cephenin morfolojik (fiziksel-biçimsel) yapısının modellenip kinetik dönüşümü tasarımının yapıldığı, fonksiyonel özelliklerinin belirlendiği ve performans analizlerinin gerçekleştiği tasarım sürecinde; benimsenen tasarım yaklaşımları, kullanılan tasarım sistemleri ve bu sistemlerin gerektirdiği araç, yöntem ve tekniklerin bir araya gelerek oluşturduğu tasarım prosedürleri önem kazanmaktadır. Çalışma kapsamında, kinetik cephe sistemlerinin performansa dayalı tasarımı ile tasarım sürecinin ilişkisini ortaya koymak amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaçla önce literatür taraması, sonrasında belirlenen kinetik cephe tasarım örneklerinin karşılaştırmalı analizi ve değerlendirmesi yapılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonuç bölümünde, elde edilen bulgulardan yola çıkarak performansa dayalı optimum kinetik cephe tasarımı ve tasarım sürecine dair genel tespitler yapılmış ve literatürdeki bu sistemlerin tasarımına ilişkin çalışmaların eksikliğinden bahsedilip bu alandaki tasarım yöntem ve yaklaşımlarının arttırılıp geliştirilmesi gerektiği önerilmiştir.
