Earthquake Park Design and Some Examples from the World and Turkey

Abstract

Earthquake parks which enhance the quality of life and ordinary cases, increase the welfare of society as well as gathering in emergency / shelter will be used as parking areas are functional and designed to meet their immediate needs. So the planning of parks has a very important place for earthquake disaster management. When we look topography structure of Turkey, because of hosting the major fault lines, also deemed necessary the existing green areas (parks, recreational areas etc.) must be capable of converting the earthquake parking in case of a disaster and have adequate equipment for this situation. In this study, emphasizing the importance of earthquake parks in the world and in our country examined some available earthquakes parks and parking issues must be considered in the earthquake planning were investigated.
