Abstract |
We know that Dae-gong has two major functions. One function is to transfer the weight of roof to the beam while the other is to play a role fix the highest purlin in order not to break away and move off. It is easy to mention the definition and function of Dae-gong, but it is hard to decide the sort of Dae-gong. Because the sort of Dae-gong is different according to one's viewpoint. That is variable sorts of Dae-gong makes easy to classify Dae-gong to into orders, but makes hard to look at Dae-gong coherently in the current of the times. Therefore it is necessary that we set a new standard is not put emphasis on the shape of board, but on unchanging attribute of assembly. In this study, the new standard is construction method. Because Dae-gong is composed of several constituent elements. In conclusion, there is several basic principles on the construction method of Dae-gong in Korea Dynasty period buildings. ① There are always So-seul-jae in Dae-gong. ② Po-dae-gong is more than 3 layer, if Po-dae-gong should have chum-cha. ③ There are 2 types timber elements towerd Bo(beam) under So-seul-jae. ④ On the 1st layer of Dae-gong is placed only timber element towerd Bo(beam). ⑤ In the basis of Dae-gong of Korea Dynasty period, the Timber toward-Dori(purlin) and the Timber toward-Bo(beam) have the each shape of Receiving board(凹) and the Covering board(凸). Also these two boards are exactly adjusted with the shape crossed, facing one to one(1:1). These timbers are put together one after another. Between the upper-timber and the down-timber, the chink lies due to Ne-gal-So-ro. |
