Rubble of destroyed buildings in Turkey is a growing environmental problem, in Ankara only, there are 12 landfills to collect and store them. Adobe is a world common building material; many studies inferred its environmental qualities. This study examines th…

Developing technology in the manufacturing industry and the requirement of high precision parts reveals micro machining. It is possible to produce workpieces both at high speed and with high precision by means of micro-mechanical machining.The finite element m…

Many well-known material structures, such as metals, ceramics or polymers, cannot meet all the technological demands. For this reason, there is ongoing research into new materials with advanced features. A composite material is consisting of at least two phase…

Since the design of the first high rise building, the “Home Insurance Building” erected in Chicago in 1884-1885 only with 11 floors, new technologies encourage the designers to build taller and slender buildings penetrating through the sky. In the history, h…

Complexity in the behavior of asphalt binders are further escalated with geopolymer (fly ash and the alkali liquid) modification thus, making it difficult to predict the performance of the binder accurately. This study employs artificial neural network model…

Low energy and water consumption of green buildings during the life cycle, waste management, minimizing the impact of projects on the ecosystem and increasing the use of environmentally friendly materials have made high performance green buildings attractive…

Additive manufacturing which is developed in the last half century is promising manufacturing technology. It uses layer-wise production method for obtaining finished product. In recent years, thousand researches were made but there was still gaps about impac…

Infill walls in reinforced concrete buildings produce a strong effect on the strength and deformation capacity of the buildings. In practice, a partial or full absence of infill walls at the first stories may become one of the reasons for vertical irregularity…

Increasing number of motor vehicles together with economic development brings serious air pollution problems. Especially, Particle Matter emissions from Internal Combustion Engines are difficult to control and highly dangerous for human health. Both Europa and…

As widely known, construction on soft soils is generally problematic since the engineering properties of soft soils generally cannot meet the conditions required. Settlement, bearing capacity and seismic performance of the overlying structures is always questi…

In this study, it is aimed that positive direction for development of environmental conditions in employees' exterior space related open-plan office and improvement of comfort conditions of the call center tables using in the office. In the study, characterist…

High rise buildings are a type of structure that depends on many things such as rapid urbanization, population growth, high land prices, transportation problems, prestige concerns, development in construction and material technology. In these structures that…

The concrete, which is an important building material, has a wide range of uses through its economic advantages and many other advantages. Economics, easy obtainable, long life, easy curing and workability are some of the advantages. Concrete is the most used …

The waste problem has become a non-ignorable issue in apparel industry like other manufacturing industries and the concept of sustainability has come to the forefront. The term ‘sustainability’ refers to the long-term viability of business operations and their…

In this study, hybrid composite structures were manufactured by vacuum assisted resin transfer molding method using three different woven fabrics (jute, E-glass and carbon) as the reinforcing material and polyester resin as the matrix material. All composite…

Elastomer materials can be jointed using various connection types with metallic parts. Removable connections (with screws, nuts, etc.), adhesive and vulcanization methods are some of them. In this work, it is investigated that how joint between one type of e…

In the last century, there has been an ever-increasing demand for novel materials namely known as composites. Biological fibers are reinforcement materials of composite structures owing to their economic and ecological advantages. Among these fibers, plant f…

One of the major problems encountered designers working in the developing industry is how product can get better designs in the first stages. There are many structural optimization methods for weight reduction operations. One of them is the lattice structura…

AFAD Logistics warehouses, stocked by the Red Crescent in Turkey in diameter will be needed after a possible earthquake in Istanbul on the amount of temporary sheltering units were established considering the amount of material inside the tent and the tent. It…

Numerous studies have been carried out in the field of material science for the development of lightweight materials with high wear resistance, high strength and good corrosion resistance. Aluminum and its alloys are one of the most important engineering mater…
