Evacuation of assembly buildings in emergencies such as earthquake, fire and terror is very important to prevent major casualties. To evacuate the building smoothly, it’s necessary to realize the right architectural design. There are very few studies both national and international literature on evacuation of mosques in emergencies. The aim of this study is to contribute to literature by a case study on emergency evacuation of mosques. Within the scope of the study, Hacıveyiszade Mosque which is located in the city center of Konya is examined. The mosque was evaluated using a simulation study. According to the findings obtained from the simulation, the evacuation of the mosque was completed in 10 min 48s and the evacuation could not be achieved within the safe evacuation time (2.5 min) specified for this class of buildings. In this context, suggestions made to improve the evacuation performance of the Hacıveyiszade mosque.

Cami Yapılarında Tahliye Problemi, Konya Hacıveyiszade Cami Örneği

Öz

Toplanma amaçlı yapıların deprem, yangın, terör gibi acil durumlarda tahliye edilmesi büyük can kayıplarının önüne geçilebilmesi için çok önemlidir. Acil durumlarda yapının sorunsuz bir biçimde boşaltılabilmesi için doğru mimari tasarımı gerçekleştirmek gerekir. Camilerin acil durumlarda tahliye edilmesi üzerine ulusal ve uluslararası literatürde çok az çalışma bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı camilerin acil durum tahliyesi konusunda bir alan çalışması gerçekleştirerek literatüre katkıda bulunmaktır. Çalışma kapsamında Konya kent merkezinde yer alan Hacıveyiszade camisi incelenmiştir. Cami, benzetim çalışması ile değerlendirilmiştir. Simülasyondan elde edilen bulgulara göre caminin tahliyesi 10dk 48sn’de tamamlanmış ve bu sınıftaki yapılar için belirlenmiş olan güvenli tahliye süresi içinde (2.5 dk) sağlanamamıştır. Bu bağlamda Hacıveyiszade camisinin tahliye performansının iyileştirilebilmesi açısından öneriler sunulmuştur.
