| Title |
A Study on the Construction-rule in Korean traditional-wooden Architecture |
| Abstract |
The structural roles of Kong-Po(a Far Eastern bracket system) can be said as follows: the role to transmit the weight of upper part to the part of column, to support the eaves as a cantilever due to the eave-projecting, to increase the height of roof, and by this, to enlarge the inner space. This study is focused on evaluating the normative numerical values and, after this, inquiring and comparing the characteristic aspects at each style of Kong-Po in Korean traditional architecture, through the elements directly related to its structural roles. These elements can be arranged as the next:colunm-interval length, column-heigth, eave-height, eave-depth, inner and outer Chool-Mok number(number of tou), Kong-Gan-Po number(which means the number of bracket system lying in the post-interval),and chief-purlin height.For this study were analyzed all 41 Korean trditional constructions(each the numver of Joo-Shim-Po style constructions 18, Da-Po style constructions 23) focused on above-mentioned elements. |
