Mardin İli Merkez İlçesinde Yer Alan Şehidiye Medresesi’nin Cephelerinde Görülen Taş Bozunmalarının Analizi

Stone material is one of the most preferred construction materials in traditional buildings. The fact that stone has drilling, crushing and shaping properties and does not need any other binding material is an important factor in the frequent preference of stone material. The durability of stone is important for stone structures to survive until today. However, when the stone material is exposed to environmental and climatic factors, deterioration occurs on the surfaces of the stone. It is important to detect and classify these deteriorations on stone surfaces and to take measures against deterioration in order for the structure to survive for a longer period of time. In this study, stone deterioration was identified and classified as physical, chemical, biological and anthropogenic deterioration and the deterioration of the facades of the Şehidiye Madrasah in Mardin is discussed. The deterioration of the building was classified and analyzed. Visual, mapping and X-Ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy (XRF chemical analyzes method) were used as analyzes methods. The aim of the study are to determine the types and causes of deterioration in the building, to offer solutions and to ensure that the building is transferred to future generations without losing its originality for many years. With the data obtained as a result of the study, it is aimed to form the basis for the conservation projects to be realized in the following years.
