| Course Objectives | This course introduces architectural restoration and conservation concepts and aims to instill in the students the protectionist approach through the case studies. |
| Learning Outcomes | The students who succeeded in this course;
|
| Course Description | The aim of this course is to define architectural restoration principles through the concept of conservation. In this regard, surveying, drawing techniques, identification of the building and research methods in order to create the reconstruction projects, issues to be considered designing the restoration projects (determining the areas that should be protected, new additions for refunctioning),\nexplanation of the analyzes based on these projects (material, termination, deterioration-intervention, reliability analysis), and examination of these stages including the procedures and construction through case studies will be the topics discussed in the course |
