Abstract

Istanbul-Bakırköy kufeki stone has been widely used as a building block in traditional architectural structures in Istanbul. The petrographic, physicomechanical and chemical properties of limestone, which was extracted from the quarries of Istanbul-Silivri-Akören village and used as building stone repair stone in traditional architectural buildings in Istanbul and contemporary architecture, are determined according to TS 699. According to the studies, Silivri stone is a limestone with high silica content. According to the results of the experiments, it was examined that kufeki stone could be used as a building block and that Bakırköy kufeki stone could fill the gap in the restoration of traditional buildings. Consequently, it is suitable to be used in the restoration works of historical works built with kufeki stone in terms of color and technical features kufeki stone in terms of color and technical features.

Keywords
