Figure 1.1If caption of the figüre consists of single line it should be centered
Figure 1.2If caption of the figure consists of multiple lines, it should be justified and single spaced. Figures should be placed using table without border. Figures cannot run over margin. The space between figure and caption should be 12 pt and the space between caption and following text should be 12 pt..

Figure1.3If there are more than one figures a) Explanation of the left figure, b) Explanation of the right figure. Captions of figures will be centered below figures. The listing should be with format (a) and (b) in Turkish lowercase letters alphabetically.

a)Caption of left figure. /
b)Caption of right figure.
Figure1.4Figure captions will be written as shown above. In this case, captions should not be written in general explanation of the figure. Caption of each figure should be centered. If a group of figures cannot be shown in the same page, the figure caption can be shown in the following page with (continued) statement keeping the same figure number (for example Figure 1.3 (continued)).

Equations will be written using equation editor. Equations will be numbered with section number and inserted in a table without border as shown below. The equation will be aligned with left margin and the numbering of equation should be aligned with right margin. If the equation is longer than a line it will be continued at the following line.

/ (1.1)

If there is a group of equations, it can be numbered as shown below

/ (1.2a)
/ (1.2b)

References can be prepared with “surname year” or “numbered according to citation order” formats. One of these formats must be chosen.

Rules should be followed in the case of “surname year” format is to be used

  • If the reference is single author it should be cited as Surname (year) in or at the beginning of sentence. If it is at the end of sentence it should be cited as (Surname year).
  • If there are two authors it should be cited as Surname-1 and Surname-2 (year) in or at the beginning of sentence. If it is at the end of sentence it should be cited as (Surname-1 and Surname-2 year)
  • If there are more than two authors it should be cited as Surname et.al. (year) in or at the beginning of sentence. If it is at the end of sentence it should be cited as (Surname et.al. year)
  • If an author has multiple references in a year lowercase Turkish letters will be placed at the end of year in the order it is cited in the text. For example “Surname et. al. (2007b)”
  • Examples for reference style can be found at Bibliography section.

Rules should be followed in the case of “numbered according to citation order” format is to be used.

  • References can be presented in the sentence with numbers in brackets at the order of citation in text. (For example [1]).
  • If consecutive numbered references to be used in the same sentence, references can be presented as [first reference-last reference]. For example [1-5]
  • If nonsuccessive references to be used they should be ordered starting from the smalletst number. For example [2, 5, 7-12].

The most controversial situation about the references part emerges in the case of “reference of a reference”. Author may reach the information by means of another study which cited this specific information. In such a case authors may feel on the horns of a dilemma. This problem can be solved by citing the original work first and next citing the other study. However, in the REFERNCES section only the reference which has directly been read by the author should be included. On the other hand, the original work haset o be included in the “BIBLIOGRAPHY” section. So that, the distinction between references lreached via another reference and direct references will be made. Below examples are given fort his situation for in-text citation.

…. Bieniawski (1978) offers the usage of poorness class instead of rock mass class defined for a structural region when the crossroads are exist (from Gerçek, 1982)……

………It is offered the usage of poorness class instead of rock mass class defined for a structural region when the crossroads are exist (Bieniawski 1978, from Gerçek 1982)………

Examples for citation numbering situatiın

  • [B1] offers the usage of poorness class instead of rock mass class defined for a structural region when the crossroads are exist [from 2].
  • It is offered the usage of poorness class instead of rock mass class defined for a structural region when the crossroads are exist [B1, from 2].
