Abstract

The three-year inspection of 20 tree stumps in the fire prevention area around the wooden building confirmed that termite colonies had been rapidly spread. In particular, four buildings among thirty one wooden buildings of Songgwang-sa temple were infected by the termite, indicating that the habitate of termite has been spread across the fire prevention area over the temple area. However, a non-destructive microwave diagnosis showed that internal damages have been progressed until now, suggesting a high risk to the building. These results suggest that the fire prevention area should be properly maintained to have harmful element controlled. Therefore, effective methods are required to eliminate tree stumps or wood materials used to establish fire prevention area near wooden buildings.

목조건축물 주변 화재방제구역에서 벌채된 후 방치된 20기의 그루터기를 3년간 조사한 결과 흰개미 군체가 빠른 속도로 확산되고 있음을 확인하였다. 특히 송광사 경내 전체 31개 목조건축물 중 4개 동에서 흰개미에 의한 손상이 진행중인 것이 확인되어 서식지가 화재방제라인을 넘어 사찰 내부로 확산되고 있음을 확인하였다. 특히 극초단파 탐지장비를 이용한 조사를 통해 현재까지도 내부 손상이 진행 중인 것으로 확인되어 위험성이 매우 높았다. 따라서 정비되지 못한 화재방제구역은 오히려 목조문화재의 잠재적인 위해요소로서 작용하고 있다. 따라서 방화선 구축사업으로 인해 발생된 목재 및 그루터기의 효율적인 제거 방안이 요구된다.
