Abstract :Budget estimates for determining the estimated cost for the buildings to be constructed or restored are significant documents that provide data concerning building materials and terminology. This article analyzes the building materials and terminology encountered in the budget estimates for Hagios Baseliesos (Aya Vasil) Church, the Armenian Girls and Boys School and the Prison to be constructed in Izmit. These estimates, which date from 1888, 1909 and 1912 respectively, were prepared by the Municipality of Izmit. As a result of the research, it has been found that the building materials specified in these estimates are local and imported materials in conformity with the construction techniques of the period. Similar researches to be conducted on building materials based on budget estimates will support such conclusions and will contribute to the determination of the rate and diversity of use of building materials in Ottoman architecture and the identification of regional differences.Keywords :
