Abstract

The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the use of the name of the traditional wall construction member, and then to examine the meaning of the name of the traditional wall construction member through comparison with the actual case. The results of this study are summarized as follows. First, Chinese characters for each member are as follows: Mullion(Junggit) is most often used as "中衿(木)" in the literature, with examples such as "中衿(木)", "中棨" and "中其叱". Batten(Gasisae/Sac) is identified as "棘塞", "架上木", "加時槊", "加時槊", and "槊(木)" and uses "槊(木)" the most. Oe was first used as "柧木" and later as "椳(木)" in the 18th century. The Jambs used Chinese characters such as "壁縇", "壁楦" and "壁楥". Second, the main components of the wall analyzed through the usage are the Earth-mullion, Junggit, Gasisae(Sac), and Oe. Existing Earth-mullion has been recognized as the same members as the Jambs. However, the literature shows that the wall and the member specifications are separate, and that they are similar in size to the Junggit. Through literature use analysis such as 『Uigwe for Construction the Tomb of Crown Princess Hye(顯隆園園所都監儀軌)』(1816) and 『Uigwe for Construction the Tomb of King Tungjo(正祖健陵山陵都監儀軌)』(1821), it was confirmed that the width of the member was thinner than 105mm. Third, we considered the meaning of the name of the components of the wall through actual examples. Earth-mullion differs from Jamb depending on the composition of the wall. Both Jamb and Earth-mullion are vertical members between the lines exposed to the outside. However, unlike lintels with similar specifications of lnbang and members, Earth-mullion is a lintel exposed to the outside while acting as Junggit, so it consists of a thinner width than Lintel in buildings. A Gasisae(Sac) is defined as a component that is installed perpendicular to Junggit if Junggit is present, or that is installed regardless of direction if Junggit is not present, and that is Oeyeokkgi with Oe. Oe is a part that is installed horizontally and vertically to fill the background on which the earth wall is applied.
