In this study, impulse response of a multipurpose hall, namely METU Northern Cyprus Campus Auditorium (NCCA) is analyzed and the acoustical quality of the auditorium is evaluated. Suggestions to increase the acoustical satisfaction has been made and to overcome the probability of bass-rise caused by the noise of HVAC systems, a proposal has been made to control low frequency sounds by introducing the volume resonators for the specified frequency. For the study, Odeon, which is used effectively in computer based acoustical simulation studies, is used for the analysis part. In the analysis, a 3D drawing of the hall has been produced by the help of the exact dimensions derived from the original submission of the project by the permission of the authorities.

Assessing thermal comfort conditions: a case Study on the METU Faculty of Architecture building; the case of ODTÜKENT Çakır, Çağrı; Elias Özkan, Soofia Tahira; Department of Building Science in Architecture (2006) The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of environmental design parameters on thermal comfort conditions in the METU Faculty of Architecture Building located in Ankara. The building had some problems in terms of indoor climatic conditions, both in winter and in summer. It was evident that some design parameters caused this undesirable situation. The study therefore focused on understanding and evaluating the effects of design-dependent elements such as thermal mass, the size and orientation of win...
Architectural built form and public dialogue : an evaluation of public wall in its communicative role Güçlü, Tuğba; Cengizkan, Ali; Department of Architecture (2006) This thesis is a study on the interface of public built form and the open public space surrounding it. The aim is to explore the problem of the transition between interior and exterior public space, that is the exterior skin of the public built form: its public wall. Public wall is explored as an in-between element belonging to both spaces, which forms the dialogue of these spaces. The dialogue is studied in terms of communicative qualities. A conceptual framework is established for the analysis of the publ...
An analysis of the thermal performance of METU staff housing units and calibratıon of their simulated model Bağcı, Mediha Özlem; Elias Özkan, Soofia Tahira; Department of Architecture (2008) The aim of this study was to investigate the thermal performance of residential units in the Middle East Technical University (METU) Campus, Ankara. The study was conducted on the unoccupied residential units to eliminate the occupant interventions. There were only three unoccupied residential units in the study period, hence sample was considered as randomly selected. Case study units were triplex row houses and all physical characteristics were identical apart from their orientations. The thermal performa...
Diagrammatic potency of the "nine square grid" in architectural design Kalfazade, Nihat; Gür, Berin Fatma; Department of Architecture (2004) The aim of this thesis is to search for the diagrammatic potency of the أnine square gridؤ (9SG) in architectural design. The thesis refers to the diagram as a tool for bringing order to the essential elements of architecture (i.e. program, structure and context). It highlights the potential relationships among these elements. In this study, the 9SG is approached as a diagram that has the potential to generate different spatial relations. The thesis investigates different uses of the 9SG in reference to the...
Analysis of the limits of representation of architectural photographic images in periodicals Bakht, Nazlı; Güzer, Celal Abdi; Department of Architecture (2007) This study aims to analyze the limits of representation of architectural photographic images in periodicals within architectural media that shape today’s architectural production. This aim is accomplished in three sections; “examining the power of image in architecture”; “examining architectural media” and “examining the periodicals’ attitudes towards using architectural photography”. A case study is done to uncover the relationship between the photograph and the medium that it takes place on and determine ...
