    Accessibility of Open Green Spaces for People with Disabilities: Case Study of Çanakkale Kepez Public Cafe and its Outdoor Surroundings
    (Taki Can METİN, 2025) Ast, Mahmut Can; Erken, Tutku Ak; Kelkit, Abdullah
    People may lose their mental and physical abilities partially or completely due to congenital conditions, diseases, or accidents. In order to ensure that the living conditions of affected individuals with disabilities are suitable, the cities, which serve as our living spaces, must be arranged according to the necessary standards. These arrangements should enable individuals with disabilities to participate in social life. Open green spaces, which are among the areas with high social activity in cities, must be safe and easily accessible for individuals with disabilities. To ensure accessibility, designs should consider all individuals and create spaces based on universal design principles. This study focuses on the accessibility of Kepez Public Cafe and its outdoor surroundings located in Kepez, Çanakkale. Literature review and observational analysis showed that some parts of the study site did not comply with regulations and guidelines. Results also showed that the area is not fully accessible to individuals with disabilities, lacks guidance and warning systems, and has safety issues in certain areas. Designs of landscapes should meet the needs of all individuals constituting the urban population

    Evaluation of Sprinkler and Subsurface Drip Irrigation Systems in Terms of Design and Cost
    (Ömer Kamil ÖRÜCÜ, 2024) Demirel, Kürşad; Yetişir, Fatma; Ast, Mahmut Can; Altınok, Murat
    This study aims to compare two different irrigation methods (sprinkler and subsurface drip) used in landscape areas in terms of design and cost. In the study, sprinkler and subsurface drip irrigation systems were designed according to design techniques in small and large-scale grass-covered areas created as examples. However, the design of irrigation systems in the areas was designed independently by three different landscape architects and these projects were compared in terms of cost. As a result of the study, it was determined that although the subsurface drip irrigation system has higher water application efficiency and water is used more effectively, the sprinkler irrigation system designed in small and large-scale areas is less costly than the subsurface drip irrigation system. This is because subsurface pipe costs are high. When comparing projects related to the area, changes in costs were observed depending on the irrigation equipment and designs used. As a result, it is recommended that the projects be designed sustainably and economically by experts, taking into account the design criteria of irrigation systems in landscape areas. However, since water use efficiency is important today, part of the cost of the subsurface drip irrigation system should be supported by the state and its use in landscape areas should be widespread
