Abstract

This study deals with 8-cheok(ch"), equivalent to 2.4m as the standard scale of architectural module in Korea. 8ch" of Korean module was a unique dimensions compared to other East-Asian architecture. It is inferred that it spread in Joseon Dynasty by the effects of the law which limited the size of buildings and materials according to social rank. 8ch" module was applied to the Palace architecture and the highest grade mansions rather than common and small houses. The application of 8ch" module changed the process of architectural planning, and bred the essential characteristics of Korean architecture in terms of appearance and techniques. In addition, it developed to gain multiformity of composition by combination of other modules.
