Geleneksel kırsal konutların ekolojik açıdan değerlendirilmesinde bir model denemesi: Yalova örneği.

Buildings that cause energy and resource consumption during the construction, use and demolition stages damage ecological values, increase waste generation and negatively affect health and comfort conditions. In order to solve the aforementioned problems, it is of great importance to investigate ecological applications and to design buildings suitable for ecological architecture. Therefore, in this study, a model proposal is presented that aims to evaluate traditional rural housing examples from an ecological perspective and to reveal practices that can shed light on today's buildings. This model proposal, created by the first author in his doctoral thesis titled "A model proposal for the ecological evaluation of the traditional rural houses: Case of Yalova", prepared under the supervision of the second author, is objective, practical, guiding and also can be used in five different climatic regions of Turkey. The model proposal consists of four basic stages: Performance criteria, scoring system, evaluation standards and implementation tools. In the model proposal where scoring is made out of 100; There are five main categories of evaluation: land conservation and ecological values, energy conservation, water conservation, material conservation and indoor environmental quality. Yalova was chosen as the study area for testing the model proposal. The building sample evaluated in ecological terms achieved a success degree of "GOOD" by showing a success rate of 75.90%. The building received the highest score on water conservation, and the lowest score was on energy conservation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
