Abstract This study aims to categorize Dori-supporting members by position, function, and form, examining their usage and historical changes. Dori-supporting members, more varied than those for beams, Daegong, and Dongjajoo, pose challenges in precise classification due to their diversity. Therefore, this study paid attention to the lack of consistent standards particularly within the Beam direction Dori-Supporting members of a roof frame structure. Especially focusing on the 231 Dori-Supporting members above columns described on the longitudinal section of Jeongkan(core bay) among 89 buildings. Classifications of Dori-supporting members were based on the number of Doris on which the member was hung and its position of joinery. An examination was based on suggested types of Dori-Supporting members(Single Dori Type, Gongpo Inside Type, and Doris Connection Type), analyzing their characteristics, usage, and changes over time by Gongpo(Bracket set). As a result, this study revealed that Dori-Supporting members have responded to the different needs given by its Gongpo style and adapted to the structural and historical circumstances of wooden buildings.
