본 연구는 식물군집구조 분석을 통해 팔공산국립공원 칠곡 가산산성내 식생 특성을 파악하여 지속적인 관리와 보호 에 필요한 자료를 구축하고자 진행되었다. 칠곡 가산산성은 팔공산국립공원 내 위치한 문화유산이며, 국립공원 용도지 구 구분에 따라 공원자연보존지구에 해당하는 지역으로 보전가치가 높은 지역이다. 칠곡 가산산성 내 96개 조사구에 대한 식물군집구조 분석 결과, TWINSPAN과 DCA 분석을 통해 소나무-낙엽활엽수군락(Ⅰ), 소나무군락(Ⅱ), 서어나 무-소나무군락(Ⅲ), 소나무-서어나무군락(Ⅳ), 물푸레나무-고로쇠나무군락(Ⅴ), 물푸레나무-물오리나무군락(Ⅵ), 아까 시나무-밤나무군락(Ⅶ), 느티나무-낙엽활엽수군락(Ⅷ)의 총 8개 군락으로 나뉘었다. 이는 조림수종인 아까시나무, 밤나 무, 물오리나무가 우점하는 인공림 군락(Ⅵ, Ⅶ)과 자생수종이 우점하는 자연림 군락(Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ, Ⅴ, Ⅷ)으로 구분할 수 있다. 인공림은 관리를 통해 기후적 특성에 맞는 자연림으로의 천이 유도가 가능할 것으로 사료되며, 이를 통해 국립공원 자연자원 보전에 필요한 기초자료로 활용될 것으로 판단된다. 하지만 본 연구는 칠곡 가산산성을 중심으 로 수행하였기에 팔공산국립공원 전체 지역의 식물군집구조를 파악하기에 한계가 있으므로 팔공산국립공원 전 지역을 대상으로 하는 연구가 필요하다.

In Korea, the occurrence frequency of earthquakes has recently increased, compared with the past. So, the various damages for cultural properties due to earthquake can be expected, and especially fortress structure is vulnerable to earthquake. Therefore, the resonable seismic characteristics evaluation is required to secure the safety for fortress structure with the various construction and configuration types. Also, we should consider the various applied load conditions as design variables. To this end, this study classifies fortress structures according to the construction and configuration types, and then applies the discrete element method to model and analyze fortress structures. Finally, the seismic characteristics is evaluated through slip condition due to the analysis results considering the various design variables.

This paper looked into the structure of and changes in the building process of Gijang mountain fortress and its receiving reservoir by analyzing data from an excavation investigation. The structure of the receiving reservoir may be classified into a flat form, stone sheath, floor facility, wall facility, and entry and exit facility. The flat form of the Gijang mountain fortress and receiving reservoir is round. Concerning the sectional form, the wall was obliquely excavated in the trapezoid. As a stone sheath building method, it was built by undertaking a range work of oblong stone materials in a clockwise direction on a stamped soil floor. Then, it was treated with stamping using double layers of gray clay and yellowish brown clay on the floor and the wall. Also, in a space between the stamped layers on the floor, herbal plants and a straw mat were laid for waterproofing as well as to prevent sinking. As an entry and exit facility, two facilities were confirmed symmetrically in the southeast and in the northwest. It is believed that they were built additionally during rebuilding after the initial construction. The building process was revealed to have been carried out in 8 stages. Given the structure and excavated remains, the building period is estimated to be the early to mid 7th century for the initial building, the later 9th to 11th centuries for the primary rebuilding, and the later 16th to early 17th centuries for the secondary rebuilding.
