Abstract
This study aims to compare the municipal water distribution performance and classify the municipal water distribution systems in the provinces of Turkey using the Gray Relational Hierarchical clustering method for both 2006 and 2016. A correlation analysis was used to determine the variables affecting the distributed water. The Hierarchical gray clusters and the changes during the decade are presented with spatial distribution maps using statistically significant variables. Consequently, the findings reveal that the municipalities of Istanbul, Izmir, Bursa, Gaziantep, and Kocaeli managed water distribution effectively, whereas the municipalities of Konya, Şanliurfa, Diyarbakir, Samsun, Trabzon, and Sakarya managed it poorly.
期刊介绍：
The scope of Teknik Dergi is naturally confined with the subjects falling in the area of civil engineering. However, the area of civil engineering has recently been significantly enlarged, even the definition of civil engineering has somewhat changed.
Half a century ago, engineering was simply defined as “the art of using and converting the natural resources for the benefit of the mankind”. Today, the same objective is expected to be realised (i) by complying with the desire and expectations of the people concerned and (ii) without wasting the resources and within the sustainability principles. This change has required an interaction between engineering and social and administrative sciences. Some subjects at the borderline between civil engineering and social and administrative sciences have consequently been included in the area of civil engineering.
Teknik Dergi defines its scope in line with this understanding. However, it requires the papers falling in the borderline to have a significant component of civil engineering.
