The Effect of Different Floor Coverings Elements on Landscape Ergonomics

Year 2020, Volume: 8 Issue: 1, 11 - 17, 28.02.2020

Abstract

Lighting
can also cause negative impacts like light pollution and temperature on living
and non-living elements. Aim of the study is that determination of the light
reflectance values of the floor covering used in landscaping. Study area was
analyzed, current lighting systems in the study area were determined, and the
current illumination values were measured by using lux meter. The differences
of the illumination values, between the ground (0m.) and reflection from the
ground (1.60m.) were determined statistically. The highest level of reflectance
of light was water. Following the water as a ground cover; it has been
determined that the light reflecting ratios of the lawn plants are higher.
Concrete and asphalt surfaces reflect less light than other ground covers.
Stone and wood usage should be preferred instead of rubber, concrete and
asphalt materials. Natural stone should be used, in order to minimize light
loss on the roads where asphalt material is used.

Farklı Zemin Kaplama Elemanlarının Peyzaj Ergonomisine Etkileri

Abstract

Aydınlatma, ışık kirliliği ve sıcaklık gibi canlı ve yaşam dışı unsurlar üzerinde olumsuz etkilere neden olabilir. Çalışmanın amacı, peyzajda kullanılan yer döşemelerinin ışık yansıma değerlerinin belirlenmesidir. Çalışma alanı analiz edilmiş, çalışma alanındaki mevcut aydınlatma sistemleri belirlenmiş ve mevcut aydınlatma değerleri lux metre kullanılarak ölçülmüştür. Aydınlatma değerlerinin zemin (0 m.) İle zeminden yansıması (1.60 m.) arasındaki farklar istatistiksel olarak belirlenmiştir. Işığın en yüksek yansıtma seviyesinin su yüzeylerinde olduğu tespit edildi. Suyun ardından; çim bitkilerinin ışık yansıtma oranlarının daha yüksek olduğu belirlenmiştir. Beton ve asfalt yüzeylerin, diğer zemin kaplamalarına oranla daha az ışık yansıttıkları tespit edilmiştir. Zemin kaplamlarında; kauçuk, beton ve asfalt malzemeler yerine taş ve ahşap malzeme kullanımı tercih edilmelidir. Asfalt malzemenin kullanıldığı yollarda ışık kaybını en aza indirmek için doğal taş kullanılmalıdır.
