In Turkey, the pace of industrialization and the rapid increase of urban population cause cities and their hinterland to expand, thus some of the urban functions are located outside the urban settlement boundaries. The discontinuous and disjointed settlements lead to a new growth model in the metropolitan, namely the urban sprawl. This growth mainly affects and transforms the agricultural land around cities, which is a vital natural resource for the continuity of ecosystems, and thus, has to be used efficiently. In this study, emphasizing the nature of the agricultural land, which is non-renewable and ir-reproducible, the effects of urban sprawl induced by spatial growth are explained in the case of the Ankara Metropolitan Area. The misuse of fertile agricultural land around the city is identified by using the data of the proposed macroforms in development plans and landuse maps, wich delineate an overall picture of the spatial transformation. Results show that from the 1950s to the 2000s, the rapid spatial growth and consequent dispersion of urban functions to the periphery have degraded the fertile agricultural land, in particular on the west and on the southwest axes.

Assessment of degradation and stability of a cut slope in limestone, Ankara-Turkey
Oztekin, B; Topal, Tamer; Kolat, Çağıl (2006-03-30)
Due to the rapidly growing population of the city of Ankara (Turkey) and increased traffic congestion, it becomes necessary to widen the Ankara-Eskisehir (E-90) highway, connecting the newly built areas west of the city to the city center. During widening, several cut slopes were formed along the highway route. As a result, some instability problems (small-sized rock falls/sliding, sloughing, raveling) produced detachment zones along a cut slope in highly jointed, folded and sheared limestone, causing local...

The impact of electricity market liberalization in Turkey "Free consumer" and distributional monopoly cases
Bahce, Serdal; Taymaz, Erol (Elsevier BV, 2008-07-01)
Electricity sector has grown substantially in Turkey since the early 1960s as a result of rapid industrialization and urbanization. The vertically integrated state-owned company had a legally established monopoly on the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity in Turkey. With the support and encouragement of international organizations like the World Bank, Turkey has initiated a comprehensive program to liberalize and privatize the electricity market in 2001. The liberalization of the electr...
Value assessment for cotton-based industrial heritage in Adana
Aynal Arcı, Elvan; Özgönül, Nimet; Conservation of Cultural Heritage in Department of Architecture (2019)
The cotton-based industrial sites that effected urban development of Adana since the middle of the 19th century, were being persisted in the city center due to the extension of the urban area. Vast majority of cotton-based industry sites, that varying types of production occurred, having diverse area sizes and locations, and built in different periods, were ceased production or/and demolished. The three of the current sites were registered as cultural property and only one of them is being conserved. These ...
Producing Urban Space After Urban Transformation: The Case of Çukurambar, Ankara
Tunçbilek, Lale; Basa, İnci; Department of Architecture (2022-9-5)
In the era of globalization and digitalization, to keep up with the uncontrolled rapid urbanization, cities have expanded unrestrainedly. This expansion also required an overhaul of the existing urban fabric. Urban transformation, mostly in the form of the destruction of the old and the emergence of the new, redefines the sociocultural urban complexity while creating spatial fragmentations. Approaching urban space as a dynamic entity that is produced over time, the material and cultural production of urban ...
