Identifying and documenting the architectural, structural, and material characteristics of historical buildings is essential for conservation efforts. This need is even more critical for heritage buildings located in disaster-prone areas that are facing damage risk. In this study, Ottoman baths from the 14th–16th centuries, located in the historically significant yet vulnerable district of Seferihisar, İzmir, were selected for urgent documentation. These structures, without any prior restoration, remain rare examples of their time, reflecting the construction technology and architectural characteristics of their period despite their abandonment. Digital documentation, laboratory analysis of lime mortar samples, and architectural, structural, and material analyses were conducted for condition assessments. Additionally, photogrammetry was employed to generate three-dimensional models, enabling detailed examination. As a result, Condition Classification (CC) and Urgency Risk Classification (UC) were performed to determine conservation priorities. This approach serves as an example for identifying risks of heritage buildings in disaster-prone areas that require urgent intervention, providing a foundation for conservation efforts.

摘要

Identifying and documenting the architectural, structural, and material characteristics of historical buildings is essential for conservation efforts. This need is even more critical for heritage buildings located in disaster-prone areas that are facing damage risk. In this study, Ottoman baths from the 14th–16th centuries, located in the historically significant yet vulnerable district of Seferihisar, İzmir, were selected for urgent documentation. These structures, without any prior restoration, remain rare examples of their time, reflecting the construction technology and architectural characteristics of their period despite their abandonment. Digital documentation, laboratory analysis of lime mortar samples, and architectural, structural, and material analyses were conducted for condition assessments. Additionally, photogrammetry was employed to generate three-dimensional models, enabling detailed examination. As a result, Condition Classification (CC) and Urgency Risk Classification (UC) were performed to determine conservation priorities. This approach serves as an example for identifying risks of heritage buildings in disaster-prone areas that require urgent intervention, providing a foundation for conservation efforts.
