Assessment of Dewatering Requirements and Dewatering Well Design for an Open Pit Coal Mine in Central Anatolia
Peksezer Sayıt, Ayşe; Yazıcıgil, Hasan (2022-09-01)
The celtikci Coal Basin is a newly discovered coal basin in Central Anatolia where 11 years of open-cut mining has been planned. The bulk of the mining will be conducted below the regional water table; hence, determination of the dewatering requirements and proper design of the dewatering wells plays a critical role. This study (i) defined the dewatering requirements of the open-pit mine, (ii) established a dewatering well design for the area, and (iii) assessed the anticipated impacts of the dewatering act...
Assessment of applicability of performance-based contracts in Turkey for road maintenance services
Ateş, Koray; Öztürk, Hande Işık; Department of Civil Engineering (2019)
In the last decades, many countries have been in search of new contracting types for the road maintenance sector to reduce the cost by increasing efficiency. Performance-based contracting (PBC) for road maintenance services, which is one of the most popular approaches that has been preferred by many countries all over the world, has been reviewed in detail in this study. Although many studies and cases present the affirmative results of PBC, changing the road maintenance system from the traditional contract...

Assessment of sound transmissiion characteristics of tradtional timber framed dwelllings in Ankara Turkey
Erdil, Meltem; Çalışkan, Mehmet (null; 2015-03-03)
The impact and airborne sound transmission characteristics of interior wall and floor components in traditional timber-framed dwellings (Ankara, Turkey) were examined by in-situ acoustical measurements and simulation analyses. Presence of voids for the running of pipework or door/ window openings existed in the composition of timber framed wall and floor components was found to reduce their sound insulation performances in the range of 12-22dB. Air/sound leakages through the openings should be sealed...
Assessment of dewatering requirements for Çaldağ nickel mine in Western Turkey
Cankara, Çiğdem; Yazıcıgil, Hasan; Department of Geological Engineering (2011)
The purpose of this study is to assess the dewatering requirements of planned open pit nickel mining at Çaldağ Site in Western Turkey. Dewatering is required for safe and efficient working conditions and pit wall stability. With this scope, a groundwater model of the study area is developed and used to predict the dewatering rate. The methodology mainly involves data collection, site hydrogeologic characterization and development of conceptual model, followed by construction and use of a groundwater model t...
