Acoustic Evaluation Of Worship Buildings: Gülbahar Hatun Mosque Case
Öz
The
auditory perception of sound in the inner spaces of worship buildings has great importance in terms of ergonomics and it has different
optimum properties depending on the function of the space. It is necessary to
determine the acoustical properties of the spaces to resolve their acoustic
problems. Within the scope of this study, Gülbahar Hatun Mosque in Trabzon was
investigated acoustically. Evaluations were performed according to the
objective parameters of sound like reverberation time (T30), Early Decay Time
(EDT), Definition (D50), Clarity (C80), Speech Transmission Index (STI); and
acoustical analysis of the current situation was made by using computer simulation
technique. ODEON version 10.1 was used as a simulation program and the 3D model
of the Mosque was prepared in SketchUp8. The evaluations were made according to
the different occupancy rates of the mosque, taking into account the prayer and
preaching activities.
