Evaluation of structural problems of Geben Castle and recommendations for structural solution

The structural problems of the Geben Castle in the rural area of the Andırın District of Kahramanmaraş Province were discussed in this study. Within the scope of this report, a detailed structural evaluation of the castle is carried out based on on-site inspection, systematic photographic documents and survey drawings. As a result of the evaluation, data is provided as a basis for the structural intervention decisions required to protect the structure and transfer it to future generations. In the next step, the results of these preliminary assessments, which will be supported by structural analysis and calculations, are presented as guiding preliminary information in the stage of making structural decisions. The structural problem areas in the structure are described. These regions are given systematic definitions of practical solutions for practical applications that may be made as a result of preliminary observation.
