Özet

The study aims to analyze the correlation between decisions on location, construction style, function, and building height in residential areas and an earthquake-resilient urban approach using multivariate linear regression analysis. The selected study area is Sahinali Neighborhood in the city center of Nigde, impacted by in the Kahramanmaras Earthquake Sequence (the 7.8 and 7.5 Mw earthquakes) in Turkey on February 6, 2023. Findings reveal that site selection is the most crucial factor influencing earthquake damage vulnerability, followed by building function, layout, and number of floors. The results emphasize that city-scale decisions made through zoning plans directly influence the development of an earthquake-resistant city. © 2024 The author.
