Throughout the centuries, the climate has changed drastically; countries have entered wars, borders have been closed due to the pandemic, and natural disasters have happened. After every catastrophic event, cities either are demolished completely or survive a bit. When we look into these events, we can say that each catastrophe led cities to develop their urban fabrics to adapt to this new setting. Since the beginning of 2020, almost 100 earthquakes with a magnitude greater than 6.0 have happened all around the world. Most earthquakes did not harm cities and citizens, however, some of them caused great damage. On the 6th of February 2023, at 04:17, a magnitude of 7.8 earthquake happened in Kahramanmaraş. It was followed by a 7.7 earthquake at 13:24. There was widespread damage in an area of about 350,000 km2, about the size of Germany. An estimated 14 million people, or 16 percent of Turkey’s population, were affected. At least 62,013 people died, and hundreds are still missing. It became the deadliest earthquake that year. In this thesis, there will be two main chapters. In the research chapter, Kahramanmaraş will be analyzed in three parts: before, the earthquake and after. The situation of Türkiye and the city will be explained, and it will be better understood how the earthquake affected Türkiye and Kahramanmaraş. In the design chapter, thesis will focus on the selected area, which is Trabzon Boulevard. It used to be a main axis in the city.

Nel corso dei secoli, il clima è cambiato drasticamente, i Paesi sono entrati in guerra, le frontiere sono state chiuse a causa di pandemie, si sono verificati disastri naturali. Dopo ogni evento catastrofico, le città sono state completamente demolite o sono sopravvissute per poco. Se analizziamo questi eventi, possiamo dire che ogni catastrofe ha portato le città a sviluppare i loro tessuti urbani per adattarsi al nuovo contesto. Dall’inizio del 2020, quasi 100 terremoti di magnitudo superiore a 6,0 si sono verificati in tutto il mondo. La maggior parte dei terremoti non ha danneggiato le città e i cittadini, ma alcuni di essi hanno provocato danni ingenti. Il 6 febbraio 2023, alle 04:17, si è verificato un terremoto di magnitudo 7,8 a Kahramanmaraş. È stato seguito da un terremoto di magnitudo 7,7 alle 13:24. I danni sono stati diffusi in un’area di circa 350.000 km2, grande quanto la Germania. Si stima che siano stati colpiti 14 milioni di persone, pari al 16% della popolazione turca. Almeno 62.013 persone sono morte e centinaia risultano ancora disperse. È stato il terremoto più letale di quell’anno. In questa tesi ci saranno due capitoli principali. Nel capitolo dedicato alla ricerca, Kahramanmaraş sarà analizzata in tre parti: prima, il terremoto e dopo. Verrà spiegata la situazione della Turchia e della città e si capirà meglio come il terremoto ha colpito la Turchia e Kahramanmaraş. Nel capitolo dedicato alla progettazione, la tesi si concentrerà sull’area selezionata, ovvero Trabzon Boulevard. Un tempo era un asse principale della città. Qui si vedrà la situazione precedente e successiva dell’asse, la nuova proposta di progettazione urbana, le azioni di progettazione sostenibile e resiliente.

Abstract
Throughout the centuries, the climate has changed drastically; countries have entered wars, borders have been closed due to the pandemic, and natural disasters have happened. After every catastrophic event, cities either are demolished completely or survive a bit. When we look into these events, we can say that each catastrophe led cities to develop their urban fabrics to adapt to this new setting. Since the beginning of 2020, almost 100 earthquakes with a magnitude greater than 6.0 have happened all around the world. Most earthquakes did not harm cities and citizens, however, some of them caused great damage. On the 6th of February 2023, at 04:17, a magnitude of 7.8 earthquake happened in Kahramanmaraş. It was followed by a 7.7 earthquake at 13:24. There was widespread damage in an area of about 350,000 km2, about the size of Germany. An estimated 14 million people, or 16 percent of Turkey’s population, were affected. At least 62,013 people died, and hundreds are still missing. It became the deadliest earthquake that year. In this thesis, there will be two main chapters. In the research chapter, Kahramanmaraş will be analyzed in three parts: before, the earthquake and after. The situation of Türkiye and the city will be explained, and it will be better understood how the earthquake affected Türkiye and Kahramanmaraş. In the design chapter, thesis will focus on the selected area, which is Trabzon Boulevard. It used to be a main axis in the city. Here, will be seen before and after situation of the axis, new urban design proposal, sustainable and resilient design actions.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
