The academics pointed out that the stock of buildings in the earthquake zone was very bad and that the number of buildings that comply with the regulations is about 5 to 7 percent.

Ali Sercan Kesten, Önder Umut and Bora Akşar that there are defects in workmanship and production, especially in the main structural elements such as pillars and beams.

"The quality and workmanship of the concrete is bad. We saw that instead of crushed stones, stones with a smooth surface, known as stream gravel, were used. There are defects in work and production, especially in structural elements such as columns and beams", said Bora Akşar.

"If we had constructed the buildings according to all the requirements of the building production process, the buildings would still be damaged, but not destroyed, in accordance with the design philosophy of the earthquake code," Önder Umut said. .

According to them, over 156,000 objects were found dilapidated, destroyed immediately and severely damaged. The number of houses in destroyed and severely damaged buildings is about 507 thousand, while the number of buildings with medium and light damage is about 43 thousand.
