Abstract

The architectural construction process on planets is an architectural issue that develops day by day due to extreme environmental conditions and uncertainties. Architectural design needs structural systems to survive. Structural systems on planets encounter load factors that are different from the load factors on Earth. Choosing the optimum structural system is important for the structures planned to be built on planets to survive under the effects and loads of the environment and to adapt to human physiology. Some of the different types of structural systems used on Earth are featured in the literature for building a structure on planets. An evaluation system has been created to determine the correct system type for the first settlements on planets among the prominent structural system types and to narrow down the selection area of these system features. In line with this evaluation system in this study, a structural system model that stands up to harsh environmental conditions and protects human health is proposed for the first settlements on the planets. It is aimed that the evaluation system will be developed in the light of research emerging from developing technologies and can be used in future studies.
