Abstract
This study attempted to examine the composition method of soil wall structure and the process of change by period after the late Joseon Dynasty through comparative analysis of data related to repair work from the late Joseon Dynasty to the present. The results of this study are summarized as follows. First, the soil wall of late Joseon period was constructed by four members: junggit(中衿), gasisae(槊), oe(椳), and a roped to wave. Jungit with thin section than total wall by first and second layer, is installed to in the upper and lower inbang(引枋). Gasisae is installed through the middle of the junggit, and grooves are dug in the left and right a columnar line(柱楦, or jamb). Oe is woven with gasisae using rope, and at this time, rope is not woven into Junggit. Depending on the size of the wall, junggit may be omitted. Second, during the Korea under Japanese rule, the composition method of the wall structure in the late Joseon Dynasty was continued and applied as it was. Third, since the 1960s, the composition method of the wall structure has changed to the method of 'Cultural Heritage Repair Standard Specification' enacted by the state. Junggit with one-third of the thickness of inbang and is woven with gasisae and oe. Gasisae and himsal are sometimes omitted. This study will be significant in that it analyzes the construction method of the wall structure, which confirms the difference between the present and the Joseon Dynasty, by dividing the time points into practical examples, photos, and research data. Both methods of the wall should be viewed as the method of constructing the wall structure of architectural heritage, such as the method of reuse as it has been in the past and the method of being modified and constructed according to the current era. Through this study, it is expected that continuous research on traditional walls will be conducted.
