Heritage Building Information Modelling for the Conservation of 20th Century Modernist Architecture

2022-6
Heritage building conservation planning is values-based, interdisciplinary process that requires effective means to capture, represent, and visualize relevant building information. The information-intense nature of this process requires a modelling environment that can maintain heritage building information that is highly heterogeneous, fragmented and unstructured. This paper presents the development of a custom-made Heritage Building Information Model (HBIM) of the Middle East Technical University Faculty of Architecture building, a 20th -century Modernist structure. The modelling efforts were part of a research project supported by the Getty Foundation, Keeping It Modern Grant, which aimed at the development of a conservation plan for this unique building. A wide variety of technologies regarding data acquisition, representation, visualization and integration were used during modelling. In the process of model construction, the existing model schema is extended using a top- down approach for the representation of gathered data. We discuss the use of the relevant technologies, HBIM’s capacity in representing assessment information, different modes of visualization that HBIM facilitates, and possibilities of data integration between HBIM and auxiliary tools for building performance evaluation. In the end what is assessed, is the HBIM’s potential to be continuously used to update, access, and visualize as-is building information for heritage buildings.

Tüzükler, genel prensipler ve tarihi yapıların bakım ve onarım yöntemleri ile tarihi yapılar üzerine çalışmalara uluslararası literatürde rastlanmaktadır ve günümüz koşulları ile birlikte gelişen teknoloji, koruma yöntemlerini, teorilerini ve yaklaşımlarını değiştirmektedir. Koruma devamlı, eş güdümlü ve programlı çalışmaları, önlem almayı (riskin oluşmasını kısıtlama), bakımı (yapının özeliklerini kontrol etme) ve restorasyonu (direkt müdahale) içeren bir süreç olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Böylece planlı korum...
Assessment of the effects of adaptive reuse interventions on three apartment buildings in Beyoğlu, İstiklal street
Tamer Türer, Füsun; Özgönül, Nimet; Department of Restoration (2020-10-26)
The main subject of the thesis is the relationship between the new function and the carrying capacity of the building in adaptive reuse interventions in the context of conserving the architectural heritage. In adaptive reuse applications, the first thing that should be considered is that the new function is compatible with the building, in order to ensure that the architectural heritage assets are conserved in a healthy way. Therefore, the purpose of this thesis is to assess the relationship between t...
Sürdürülebilir Kentsel Korumanın Olabilirliği Üzerine Bir Yaklaşım Önerisi: Konya Tarihi Kent Merkezi Örneği
Özcan, Koray (Middle East Technical University, Faculty of Architecture, 2009-12-15)
In the third millennium acknowledged as the urban millennium, the debates and studies on heritage conservation planning are focused on sustainable conservation-development strategies for the historic cities in particular. Reflections on the heritage conservation in the historic center of urban settlements, studies have evoked sustainable conservation-development strategies shaped with national and international tourism potentials depending on cultural tourism. The aim of this paper is to define conservatio...
SEISMIC SHEAR CAPACITY OF REINFORCED MASONRY PIERS
Sucuoğlu, Haluk (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 1991-07-01)
Masonry buildings have been, and remain, a popular form for economically enclosing space. Whereas such buildings are safe under gravity loads, most are vulnerable to horizontal loads due to earthquakes. Observations following an earthquake and experimental programs have shown that piers between openings are the most vulnerable part of a masonry building, and that the failure of such piers is due in the majority of cases to shear (or diagonal tension). Accordingly, the study described concerns the seismic...
Property Rights as a Source for Identifying and Conserving the Spirit of Place
Rifaioğlu, Mert Nezih; Şahin Güçhan, Neriman (2013-03-01)
Urban conservation has recently been held to possess a wide perspective for explicitly identifying and assessing the combination of tangible and intangible values of historic urban contexts and implicitly defining and conserving authenticity, local identity and spirit of place through the developments in assessment of values. Nevertheless, this new way of understanding and appreciating historic urban context brings new questions into the urban conservation discipline. Discourses focus on the importance of d...
