  • The Kong-Chung Jung's relics made of wooden materials were pre-examined for conservation. Kong-Chung Jung was a General of the Chosun Dynasty and his weapons were made of wood. The pre-examining method was focused on the quality and species of the wooden weapons. X-ray radiation was used for the observation of wood structure, and the condition of the relics was relatively good although they contained some cracks. The examination of species using optical microscope showed that the species of each relics were Pinus densiflora of hanging scroll pole, Lozoste lancifolia of a top of flagnole, Fraxinus sp. of a flagpole, Phyllostachys sp. of arrow shafts. For the conservation of the relics, celyl alcohol as dimensional stability chemicals was used and poly(vinyl acetate) and epoxy adhesives were also used for the joining and restoring of the relics.

  • Title of management of cultural asset architectures made of wood managed by nation or local government is separated and there is a high concern about the disappearance of many national cultural asset architectures by fire. This study investigated the effectiveness of major installed appliances in terms of disaster prevention, and problems by early suppression in the event of fire and by mobilization of fire engines in depth. Also, this study derived problems by conducting an in-depth individual interview on interested parties for installation of fire extinguishing system by related law and to improve system to make realistic maintenance. As a result, it was identified that they have reached the positive aspects of protecting cultural asset architectures from disaster as fire by maintaining and managing facilities by establishing proper disaster prevention measures because they are surrounded by mountain or buildings are contiguous. Wooden cultural asset architectures are often excluded from regulation for installation of fire-fighting facilities under the Fire Services Act because most of wooden cultural assets are detached buildings, occupy small area, and are one-storied architecture. The best method is having extinguishing ability themselves according to the manual by making fire manual as management policy before the outbreak of fire. This study intends to suggest a follow-up study for practical considerations to establish or designate a professional management agency for them to protect important national cultural heritage buildings at the state level before they are destroyed by fire.

  • The biodeterioration behaviors of wooden parts in the Janggeongpanjeon built in 15 century were investigated according to the types of wood species, positions and parts of wooden column, and environmental conditions. It was found that a high differences of deterioration in the progressing levels of wood decay, according to the types of wood species, positions and parts of wooden column, and environmental conditions. The decay levels were high in the contacted areas with stone foundation which are about up to 8~40 cm above it, although it was shown the many of wooden parts of the round columns are still good condition. In the case of decay type, it was shown the brown-rot in many of the columns at outside of building which made of hardwoods. The decay in position of the columns was most serious in the directions of east-north, west-north and north. It was also indicated that the durability of Zelkova serrata was higher than other wood species of the round columns, while it was in inferior anti-insects.

  • Surface of the wooden cultural heritage has been protected from moisture by natural oils (such as perilla oil and tung oil), which accelerated degradation. But we can find seldom the research on the processes and performances of oil coatings. In this study, the water resistant performances by wood direction were compared to 3 types of natural oil and 2 types of oil stain, and the effect of additional indoor conditioning and temperature of oil were appraised in longitudinal direction. The natural oils block moisture about 79.2% comparing to the control in longitudinal direction. Especially the tung oil showed the outstanding water resistance about 90.5%. The water resistant performances decreased about 8.8% by additional indoor conditioning for 2 years. Heated oil improved the water resistance about average 5.0%.(Max. 9.6% with linseed oil).
