Prof. Dr. Şahnaz Tiğrek December 2010, 275 pages In this study, alternative solution of Kayraktepe Dam is investigated. Kayraktepe Dam was planned more than 30 years ago, but due to various reasons the construction could not be realized. In this study, an alternative feasible formulation was developed. Former Kayraktepe Dam was planned for multiple objectives: flood control, energy generation and water supply for irrigation. The newly developed formulation was designed to meet these objects as well. Keywords: Kayraktepe, dam, flood, hydropower, HEPP iv ÖZ KAYRAKTEPE BARAJI VE HES İÇİN ÇEVRESEL AÇIDAN KABUL EDİLEBİLİR ALTERNATİF ÇÖZÜM Sever, Özgür Yüksek Lisans, İnşaat Mühendisliği Bölümü Tez Yöneticisi: Yard. Doç. Dr. Şahnaz Tiğrek Aralık 2010, 275 sayfa Bu çalışmada, Kayraktepe Barajı için alternatif çözüm arandı. 30 yılı aşkın süredir gündemde olan baraj çeşitli nedenlerden dolayı yapılamamıştır. Bu sebeple Kayraktepe Barajı’nı yapılabilir kılabilmek için yeni bir formülasyon geliştirilmiştir. Kayraktepe Barajı taşkın, enerji ve sulama amaçlı bir projedir. Yeni formülasyon da, bu ihtiyaçları karşılayacak şekilde tasarlanmıştır.
