Pandemic resiliency and flexibility assessment of dormitory buildings in the post-Covid-19 era
The Covid-19 pandemic affected the education system, causing distance learning in most parts of the world. Thanks to the rapid vaccination, face-to-face instruction started again, university students returned to colleges, and dormitories were again used. To respond to the changing living conditions and ensure a healthy indoor environment, strategies for pandemic-resistant and flexible design of dormitories have been discussed, which is the focus of this article. To achieve this goal, state dormitories in Turkey, their current condition, and functional/ technical solutions were studied in detail using a four-stage methodology developed with this study, and their adaptation potential for new flexible and pandemic-resistant designs in the post-pandemic world was discussed. The research results showed that the case dormitory is unlikely to adapt to pandemic conditions in terms of pandemic resilience, flexibility, and Turkey Covid-19 Guidelines and that the methodology has the potential to be applicable to the evaluation of similar buildings.
