In this study, the thermal energy performances and environmental effects of two different reinforced concrete structures, Pure Shear Wall (PSW) Building and Shear Wall-Frame (SWF) Building, were investigated in the climatic conditions of Elazig province. Thermal performance analysis for both buildings; was carried out with the TS 825 program. First of all, through this program, monthly and annual heating loads were determined for 11 different alternative building component scenarios of two different buildings. Subsequently, efficiency alternatives were created in accordance with the climatic conditions of the region and TS 825. Efficiency alternatives designed for both buildings have been analyzed together with their completely uninsulated and current states. Finally, buildings with reinforced concrete carrier systems, energy analysis methods and efficiency alternatives were compared and evaluated based on the results of the analysis. As a result, it has been observed that the building with the PSW system consumes more energy than the building with the SWF system when it is uninsulated and in its current condition.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
