    Vol. 5, No.2, 1-10, 2017 Research Article Cilt 5, Sayı 2, 1-10, 2017 Araştırma Makalesi Hibrit Çim Yönteminin Futbol Sahalarında Uygulanırlığı Buket ÖZDEMİR IŞIK1 1Avrasya Üniversitesi, Mimarlık Fakültesi, Trabzon, Türkiye. ÖZ Çim zeminlerle kaplı alanlara bakıldığında, farklı alan kullanımlarının olduğu görülmektedir. Özellikle yoğunluğu fazla olan ve kapladığı alan bakımından geniş alanlara sahip (futbol, ragbi, golf vb.) spor sahaları, açık alan konser ve rekreasyon alanlarında basılabilir çim zeminlerin kolay deforme olması sebebiyle yerine alternatif çözüm önerileri araştırılmaya başlanmıştır. Araştırmalar sonrasında ilk olarak suni (sentetik) çim geliştirilmiştir. Daha sonra 1990’lı yıllarda hibrit çim yöntemi bulunmuş ve spor sahalarında uygulanmaya başlanmıştır. 20 milyon yapay liflerle güçlendirilmiş ve yarı yapay yarı doğal çim olan bu yöntem toprak altına makinalar ile enjekte edilerek doğal çim köklerinin güçlenmesini sağlamaktadır. Bu çalışmada da Dünya’da 40, Türkiye’de 5 futbol sahasında uygulanan hibrit çim yönteminin Trabzon Medikal Park Arena ile Rize Çaykur Didi Futbol Statlarındaki uygulama aşamaları ve doğal çim zeminlere oranla avantajları ortaya çıkarılmıştır. Yeni bir buluş olan bu yöntemin ilerleyen zamanlarda açık alan kullanımları için; zemin ve uygulama sonrası bakım, uzun ömürlü olma, kolay bozulmama gibi faktörler açısından kullanım kapasitesine göre daha iyi sonuçlar vereceği düşünülmüştür. Anahtar kelimeler: Hibrit, hibrit çim, suni çim, futbol sahası, grassmaster Applicability Of Hybrid Grass Method For Football Pitches ABSTRACT Based on the grounds covered with grass, we see there are different usages. Due to the fact that walkable grass grounds in sport arenas particularly having density and covering a huge ground (soccer, rugby, golf…etc.), open air concert areas and recreation areas were easily deformed, alternative solution proposals were searched out.

Avid fans follow their favorite teams not only during their respective seasons, but search the Internet and sports page in the off-season to find even the slightest bit of information. Popular holidays are interwoven with various sporting events, such as football on Thanksgiving Day or baseball on the Fourth of July.1 Some events even attract their own celebration, such as Super Bowl Sunday. If a city's local team is fortunate enough to win a championship, a large-scale parade is usually held to honor the players and coaches. 2 Clearly, sports permeate multiple aspects of our lives, and it is this popularity that sports franchises use to their advantage.
