Post Disaster Temporary Housings

 

Today, buildings are responsible for more than 40% of global energy used, and as much as 33% of global greenhouse gas emissions, both in developed and developing countries.

​

Turkey is in the top rankings in the world with regard to people affected by natural and man-made disasters. Recovery works undertaken to eliminate physical, economic, social and environmental losses caused by disasters constitute an important part of the disaster management process.

The post-disaster housing schemes have been one of the most interesting hard responsibilities faced by the governments of the countries. The requirements of the people in the disaster area should be met very fast.

 

Post-disaster temporary housings are an important area to represent a key chance for dropping energy necessities.

Sustainable life span prediction of shelters constructed in refugee camps in Turkey

The building sector consumes about 30% of primary energy worldwide. Life span is an important variable in life cycle assessment (LCA) of buildings. The aim of this study is to make the LCA of containers constructed in a refugee camp in Turkey and to investigate the relationship between life span and consumed energy with CO2 emission values.
