Educating Masses: The Committee of Union and Progress Clubs and Schools in the Late Ottoman Empire
(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2022) Tozoglu, Ahmet Erdem; 0000-0002-8434-7882; AGÜ, Mimarlık Fakültesi, Mimarlık Bölümü; Tozoglu, Ahmet Erdem; 01. Abdullah Gül University
This article examines the social and architectural context of an extensive building campaign in Turkey in the early twentieth century. The Committee of Union and Progress (CUP), one of the Second Constitutional Period's prominent political and cultural actors (1908-18), commissioned club and school buildings for social outreach operations. Influenced by their European counterparts, the Committee's protagonists believed that a social revolution could be accomplished by employing the education of the masses. Moreover, education was also essential to create a national identity for an Empire in a struggle. In this context, many clubs (for adults) and schools (for the youngsters) mushroomed in many cities simultaneously. Accordingly, the architecture of new club and school buildings reflected societal concerns and provided remarkable examples of their kinds. The education of the masses and the use of social propaganda by state agents in Republican Turkey have been scrutinized so far. Still the origins of the social engineering projects should be examined to contextualize Republican period developments. Thus, this article examines the building and impact of the clubs and schools of the CUP in the provinces and constitutes a contextual frame for their formative role in Turkish modernization.
Enhancing the Freeze Thaw Resistance of Pozzolanic Lime Mortars by Optimising the Dewatering Process
(Springer, 2024) Su-Cadirci, Tugce Busra; Ince, Ceren; Calabria-Holley, Juliana; Ball, Richard James; 0000-0001-6617-0924; AGÜ, Mimarlık Fakültesi, Mimarlık Bölümü; Su-Çadırcı, Tuğçe Büşra; 01. Abdullah Gül University
Freeze-thaw weathering is commonly attributed to the premature degradation of lime mortars. This study is unique as it explores how the effect of incorporating pozzolanic brick dust, combined with the dewatering mechanism, can influence the resistance to freeze-thaw cycling. The combination of brick dust and hydrated lime constitutes a pozzolanic lime mortar with hydraulic character. Importantly, the addition of brick dust was shown to play a crucial role by modifying the pore structure of the mortar matrix, which affected the water transport kinetics, and durability. This rigorous investigation evaluates the freeze and thaw resistance of hardened young (7-day) and old (180-day) mortars in both dewatered and non-dewatered conditions. Quantitative analysis of the microstructure highlights the role of brick dust and dewatering in densifying the matrix, refining the pore structure, and enhancing the freeze and thaw resistance. The benefits of dewatered brick dust mortars were demonstrated as young-age dewatered mortars showed similar resistance to freeze and thaw compared to the older-age non-dewatered mortars. This was attributed to the reduction of the water/binder ratio due to dewatering. It has been successfully demonstrated that freshly mixed mortars can be enhanced on-site through the addition of brick dust and coupling with a substrate that promotes dewatering. Using this approach to produce mortars with greater freeze thaw resistance will improve longevity and reduce failure rates. Impact will be realised in mortars for both new build and conservation applications.

Evolution of Production Spaces: A Historical Review for Projecting Smart Factories
(Konya Technical Univ, Fac Architecture & design, 2023) Basegmez, Merve Pekdemir; Asiliskender, Burak; 0000-0003-3712-5512; 0000-0002-4143-4214; AGÜ, Mimarlık Fakültesi, Mimarlık Bölümü; Pekdemir Başeğmez, Merve; Asiliskender, Burak; 01.

Factories are transforming not only mechanically and technologically but also architecturally due to emerging developments in the industry and fabrication: This new process, called the Second Machine Age or Industry 4.0, a new model is designed in production by providing the human-machine partnership over a virtual network. It is aimed that the machines used in production and the people participating in different stages of production can work in different spaces. In time, jobs that require human power will be replaced by robots, and a new order is being considered where there will be no people in production spaces, and they can work in the virtual environment. Production for human beings is mostly from material production to digital production; labour will turn into digital labour. For this reason, it is thought that production spaces will turn into smart factories with only machines and production robots and no workers. And now the question is: what is a smart factory?The revolutions in the industry history started with the invention of the steam engine; then, new technological revolutions were experienced with the use of electricity in production, the development of automation systems and internetbased systems. While technology and production tools are constantly changing, these developments also affect production spaces. Factories are also transforming to keep up with these rapid and continuous physical and fictional innovations. This study focuses on the architectural evolution of factories by following the technological revolutions of the industry. It examines the main criteria in the process of change and transformation of factories and spatial reflections of the revolutions. It establishes a relationship between production technology and the needs of the production spaces and seeks references from past samples. The study aims to review the historical background for generating a projection to new production spaces and to be a new discussion for future factories.

Kinetic Rosette Patterns and Tessellations
(Wit Press, 2017) Beatini, Valentina; AGÜ, Mimarlık Fakültesi, Mimarlık Bölümü; Beatini, Valentina; 01. Abdullah Gül University
The paper investigates the possibility to create kinetic rosette patterns and their tessellations by means of modular linkages which rely on the same type and number of symmetry operations as the reference models. The mechanisms show a hierarchy of movements. It is found that symmetry is an effective unifying concept in the design of both the fixed models and the mechanisms. Furthermore, the resulting rosette linkages and their tessellations have peculiar kinematic characteristics if compared to other modular mechanisms which may be alternatively used to reproduce the same kind of models. © 2023 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
The Revolarization of Industrial Heritage: AGU Sumer Campus in Kayseri, Turkey
(Scuola Pitagora Editrice, 2016) Asiliskender, Burak; Baturayoglu Yoney, Nilufer; 0000-0002-4143-4214; 0000-0002-0426-5626; AGÜ, Mimarlık Fakültesi, Mimarlık Bölümü; Baturayoglu Yoney, Nilufer; Asiliskender, Burak; 01. Abdullah Gül University; 05.01. Mimarlık; 05. Mimarlık Fakültesi
The Sumerbank Textile Factory in Kayseri (1932-1935) was one of the earliest and largest industrial complexes designed and constructed following the foundation of the Turkish Republic. This was a striking ensemble of buildings with rationalist and functionalist vocabulary, which also functioned as an urban center of social and cultural modernization, providing work and cultural/recreational activities based on a secular and westernized way of life in contrast with the existing traditional society. The factory went through a number of technological changes during its production history, and was finally closed and abandoned in 1999. The site, located along the northern development corridor of the city, and its buildings soon became derelict and were vandalized. Various projects for its regeneration as a green area were not implemented. National designation followed for the site in 2003 and for the buildings in 2007. However no conservation or adaptive re-use plans were made until the allocation of the complex to Abdullah Gul University in 2012. Today the complex is being transformed into an urban university campus. The master plan dated 2014 aims to redefine the urban and socio-cultural function of the complex. The open campus concept will welcome the citizens to an architecturally preserved and restored site with a selection of new activities focusing on culture and education at different levels where the spirit and memory of place will be sustained.
