Abstract

Temporary houses are needed for the rehabilitation phase, which emerges a few weeks after the disaster and lasts until the finish of permanent houses. It is practically difficult to construct temporary houses in a short period. In particular, there are technical problems related to the logistics and installation speed. Therefore, the deployability feature, which can speed up the process, comes to the fore in this context. In this study, three examples with different deployment directions, which could be deployed in one, two and four directions, were examined regarding their capacity, storage and transportation, area per user and effective land utilization. Selected examples from the literature were compared according to the performances. As a result of this study, each example came to the fore in different performances. In this way, the advantages and disadvantages of each system were shown.

Afet Sonrası Geçici Konut Birimlerinin Konuşlanma Yönleri Açısından İncelenmesi

Abstract

Afetten birkaç hafta sonra ortaya çıkan ve kalıcı konutların kullanımına kadar geçen rehabilitasyon aşaması için geçici konutlara ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Afet durumunun getirdiği zor koşullarda birkaç hafta gibi kısa bir zaman aralığında geçici konutların inşa edilmesi pratik anlamda zordur. Özellikle afet bölgelerine geçici konutların sevkiyatı ve kurulum hızı ile ilgili teknik problemler bulunmaktadır. Dolayısıyla süreci hızlandırabilecek olan konuşlanma özelliği bu bağlamda öne çıkmaktadır. Çalışma kapsamında bir, iki ve dört yöne doğru açılabilen farklı konuşlanma yönlerine sahip üç örnek barındırabileceği kişi sayısı, depolama ve sevkiyata uygunluğu, kişi başına düşen yaşam alanı ve araziyi verimli kullanma performansları açısından incelenmiştir. Konuşlanma yönleri incelenirken literatürden seçilmiş örnekler tanımlanan performanslara göre birbiri ile kıyaslanmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda her örnek farklı performanslarda öne çıkmıştır. Bu sayede her bir sistemin avantajlı ve dezavantajlı olduğu noktalar gösterilmiştir.
