This paper aimed to identify the units of measuring scale in Hwangnyongsa temple planning with the published excavation survey reports. Hwangyongsa temple site was planned under Silla Capital’s urban planning in 6～7C, its full size was 800×800, and main temple was 400×515 of Goguryeo’s system of measurement. Main hall was located in the center of Hwangnyongsa temple site, and its location could be seen that there was the arrangement of main temple divided into 3 : 2. Building plan measuring units proved to be 351～356㎜ and 294～ 296㎜ by analyzing measured data of remains. Lecture hall and Wooden pagoda were rebuilt by using the ancestors’ units of measuring scale again and Bell hall was not planned by Tang’s system of measurement in middle of 8C. In this respect, it would be important to have a deliberate attitude and lay down stereotypes on research of the units of measuring scale in ancient architecture.

It was believed that Jeongnimsa temple was built after the capital was moved from Gongju to Buyeo. It was confirmed that it was built A.D. 625 ± 20 by conducting a paleomagnetic analysis on the fireplace, which was recently found at the bottom of Jungmunji(middle gate). Consequently, it is assumed that the temple was built in the early 7th century unlike the previous point of view. Therefore, this study evaluated if the fireplace at the bottom of Jungmunji was found at the geological stratum representing the Jeongnimsa temple. Moreover, the study examined when the fireplace at the bottom of Jungmunji was constructed on the soil stratum. It is possible that the fireplace was built in the early 7th century as shown in the paleomagnetic analysis. However, when we compared the soil strata of the Jungmunji and the existing five-story stone pagoda, it showed that the ground was prepared differently and they were built over a fairly long period of time. Furthermore, I discovered that there was a wooden pagoda under the five-story stone pagoda by examining the soil strata map. Therefore, previous studies evaluated the arrangement of auxiliary buildings of Jeongnimsa temple and concluded that it was built in the early 7th century. It is hard to determine when the temple was built based on the arrangement of auxiliary buildings, because it takes a long time to build a temple and auxiliary buildings can be relocated during this long construction period. Rather, we have to admit that there are various arrangement patterns through minor changes in buildings from the one pagoda and one main building(Geumdang) arrangement.

This study aims to understand the their characteristics and analyze the diverse landscape plants distributed in the traditional temples. We surveyed the landscape plants that the planting species around building and terraced flower bed, excluded the spontaneous species. The contents of analysis were form, leaf fall and type, exotic species and the Buddhist symbol plant. Mostly, the families of landscape plants that rosaceae, compositae and liliaceae were much used. The rosaceae were used in landscape planting, and compositae and liliaceae were used in terraced flower bed and flower garden. Especially, a single planting, a linear planting and symmetrical planting most occupied in the planting types. This reason seemed the object and function of religion. There were lots of trees and shrubs in the form, and they were main material for formation of landscape and frame. Therefore, the temple landscape was composed of landscape plants and planting types and fell into chime with these components. The deciduous broad leaved was many in the leaf fall and type. The aesthetic value is a deciduous broad leaved directed by the external features of nutrition and reproductive organs with plants and flowers, recording, leaves, fruits, and non-seasonal forms along with the variety of landscapes inspectors by providing visual variety, because expression. Exotic species were introduced intentionally, unintentionally for a variety of purposes in a foreign species, naturalized plants invasive species was the wild country to adapt to the environment. Exotic materials will have to be rejected unconditionally, but indiscriminate use of space in a traditional review of the planting material is necessary because of the high potential to inhibit and distort the traditional landscape. Buddhist symbol plant is a very important feature as plants that have the least Buddhist doctrine and has a meaning and a symbol representing the Buddhist, the inspectors can show the difference with other scenic areas.

This paper aimed to identify a main-path remains in the Hwangnyongsa temple site based on studying published the excavation survey report and researching relics related to the path in the ancient temple site. Hwngnyongsa temple, there were three type’s paved footway, straight path to the central axis line of the layout, outside path around the main buildings and the front square of the lecture hall. These remains were expected that installed for some purposes, such as marches, touring, sort of a Buddhist ceremony been performed at the time of Silla. Straight path shows there were two rows of the main access inside the roofed corridor. A row consisted of the 2～3 pieces processed stone(Jangdaeseok) altogether with 92cm width and combined with square stone and stepping stone on the end of the road. It is regarded as very characteristic form and one of the architectural elements of Hwangnyongsa temple in Unified Silla period.

려말선초 혼란기에 불교는 타락하고 활발했던 조영의 분위기는 침체기에 빠져들었다. 그런 가운데 우리나라 사찰건축의 명맥을 유지된 몇 가지 중요한 원인을 가지고 있었다. 첫째, 건물짓는 기술자가 바로 승장 대목 자신들이라는 점과 혼란기를 틈타 엄격함으로부터 어느 정도 자유스럽게 영조할 수 있었다는 점이다. 이러한 인식의 변화는 그대로 건물에 나타나게 된다. 이러한 대표적인 사례가 사찰 전각 측면공포에 대한 등간격배열방식이다. 그 동안 이 문제에 대해 심도갚은 연구가 진행되지 않은 상태에서 서둘러 규정짓는 자세에 문제가 있었다고 본다. 본 연구는 이러한 문제점을 제기하면서 보다 심도있는 연구가 되기를 바라는 마음에서 고찰되었다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the overall condition of the foundation for the three storied stone pagoda of Bulguksa temple in GyeongJu. As a research method, exploration of the electrical resistivity, refraction seismic, surface wave exploration, GPR exploration, Reputation loading test. The results of the investigation, the range of the foundation was formed in foundation stone outskirts of 1.5 ∼ 2.0m. It was confirmed to be about 2.0m depth. The depth of the foundation becomes shallower from the base portion to the outside. And the bearing capacity of foundation was sufficient conditions to weight. It can sufficiently support the weight of pagoda. And, the result of this investigation becomes basis data for repair work.

The present study is aimed to reconsider the time of installation and the purpose of the square footstone located at the center of the wooden pagoda in Hwangnyongsa Temple, based on related precedent studies. Precedent studies are divided into two streams of assertions: one is that the square footstone was to support the major pillars at the time of building and the other is that it was installed to store Buddhist reliquaries inside the central foundation stone after the wood pagoda burnt down in the Invasion of Mongol. Summarizing the grounds with which the precedent studies support their assertions, they are the relation with Gaseopbul Yeonjwaseok, the emerging time of the square footstone, repairing work at the level of reconstruction, additional enshrinement of general Buddhist reliquaries and so on. The present study reviewed the key grounds suggested in the previous studies regarding the square footstone. First, it was determined that the square footstone has nothing to do with Gaseopbul Yeonjwaseok, after looking into the timings of appearance, condition and shape in literatures. Rather, it was assumed that Gaseopbul Yeonjwaseok resembles a stone column. Next, the square footstone is assumed to be installed after the 4th year of King Kwangjong’s rule because the wood pagoda was lost in fire in the 4th year of Kwangjong’s rule and it had been left alone for 68 years until the repair work finished in the 13th year of King Hyunjong. It is assumed that repair works at the level of reconstruction had been twice in total, say, once during King Kyungmun and Hyunjong, respectively. Next, looking into the establishment of the general Buddhist reliquaries and the repair work during King Kyungmun, it was not common then to enshrine additional Buddhist reliquaries when repair work progressed and so there was not an additional enshrinement of Buddhist reliquaries after King Kyungmun. However, it is hard to decide that there was no repair work at the level of reconstruction at that time. Last, we can find a similar case to the square footstone of the wood pagoda in Hwangnyongsa Temple in the copper pagoda in Japanese Yaksasa Temple. In conclusion, it is assumed that the wooden pagoda in Hwangnyongsa Temple was lost to the fire in the 4th year of King Kwangjong’s rule and thus the square footstone had been used as Jinho stone to protect Buddhist reliquaries and used as a propping stone for the major pillars after King Hyungjong.

This paper aimed to identify architectural historical meaning of the brick-constructed platform of the west hall in Hwangnyoungsa buddhist temple site based on studying published the excavation survey report and comparing with other platforms of Silla remains. Mass and height of the building has a hierarchical structure within a buddhist temple site, this is applicable in Hwangnyongsa. So in case of a rank equal to or lower buildings than the west hall, those of platforms were built of brick-constructed. As stone relics, jidaeseoks are very narrow, I think that wooden pagoda and main hall's platform were built of brick in first construction period. West hall's platform was built at the late 6th～the mid of 7th century, these brick-remains were considered as a quite earlier construction period relics. Because in west hall there is no jidaeseok under bricks, and all bricks relics have a rectangular shape.

삼척의 불교문화는 선덕여왕 11년 자장율사가 당나라에서 귀국하여 오대산에 들어가 관음보살의 聖蹟을 찾던 중 두타산에 이르러 흑련대를 처음으로 창건하여 현재 삼화사의 시초가 되었다는 󰡔삼화사사적󰡕, 이 후 선종이 전국적으로 퍼진 통 일기에 범일국사가 강릉의 굴산사를 세운 이래 삼척지역에도 불적이 형성되었을 것으로 보아 신라 하대에는 유입, 전파되었다고 추정할 수 있다. 따라서 삼국시대의 불교문화의 전래 이후 고려시대 말까지 호국불교로 크게 발전하였고, 강원도의 사찰의 불교는 더욱 신장되었을 것으로 추정된다. 그러나 현재 강원도에 분포하는 불교유적, 유물에 대한 조사가 제대로 이루어지 지 않아 전반적으로 불교문화를 이해하는데 많은 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 글은 강원도 삼척시·동해시·태백시를 중심으로 문헌조사를 통해 폐사지의 현황을 살펴보고, 현지조사를 통해 사지가 유존하거나 출토된 석조물, 와편 등을 함께 검토하였다. 문헌기록과 현지조사를 통해 삼척·동해·태백 내에서 폐사지는 현재 총 61개가 확인되었다. 삼척 34개소, 동해 11개소, 태백 16개소이며, 연구소에서 확인한 폐사지는 삼척 4개소, 동해 3개소, 태백 5개소이다. 현재 삼척지역의 폐사지는 완전히 조사가 이루어졌다고 할 수 없다. 사지로 추 정되거나 구전되는 곳을 확인한 결과 유구나 유물이 확인되지 않은 경우가 많고, 자연재해 및 현상변경으로 등으로 인하여 명확히 소재지를 파악할 수 없는 곳들이 요소에서 확인되었다. 1990년대 이후에 폐사지 조사를 통하여 시·발굴된 유적은 흥전리사지, 지상사지, 본적사지 등이 있다. 그 중 최근 흥전리사지가 시·발 굴조를 통하여 건물지, 석축, 탑지 등을 확인하였고, ‘국통’명 비편, 청동제 장식, 철제 초두 등 통일신라시대의 불교문화를 확인하였다. 따라서 종합정비계획을 수반한 정밀발굴조사가 이루진다면 인근의 폐사지와 비교연구는 물론 강원도의 불 교문화를 이해하는 귀중한 자료를 제공할 것으로 기대된다.

In this paper we present the result of investigations pertaining to the buckling strength of Zelkova Serrata (Elm-like) tree column with entasis at the Muryangsujeon in Buseoksa-Temple, Korea. Wooden columns with entasis had been used in the construction of ancient architectural buildings in Korea. It was not known why did they design columns with entasis of the buildings. It is just presumed that the reason may be the compensation of optical illusion, aesthetics, and/or structural safety. The question is not answered even today and it may not be possible to answer clearly and easily. In the paper, the buckling analyses are conducted on both of the wooden column with entasis and the prismatic wooden column by the successive approximations technique and the finite element methods, respectively. The results of analyses are compared and discussed.

The purpose of this study is to investigate a vegetation structure around Tongdosa temple forest and provincial park and to provide preliminary data. In order to look over the vegetation status, an actual vegetation map was drawn around study area. Vegetation structure survey was carried out for 6 representative communities of actual vegetation which were Quercus variavilis community, Carpinus tschonoskii community, Pinus densiflora community, P. densiflora-Broadleaf deciduous Forest community, Q. mongolica community and Broadleaf deciduous Forest community. The area of the Tongdosa district measured 29,202,262 ㎡. Actual vegetation type were divided into 35 types, and the ratio of Q. variavilis community was 32.35 % (9,447,932 ㎡). To investigate the structure of 6 representative communities, 58 plots were set up and unit area plots measured 100 ㎡. The estimated age of the forest is 50~100-years-old and the oldest tree P. densiflora is 113-years-old.
