Comparative Analysis of Corner Bracket Sets in Jusimpo and Chulmok-Ikkong Styles With Hipped-and-Gabled Roofs-Examining Components and Construction Techniques-

This study begins with the question of why hipped-and-gabled roofs are less common in Jusimpo architecture compared to Chulmok Ikgong or Dapo style buildings. Three building styles were analyzed: Jusimpo style without pseudo chumcha buildings, Jusimpo style with pseudo chumcha buildings, and Chulmok Ikgong style buildings. The analysis of six buildings revealed that the construction method, centered on the 45-degree member and the Soro for load transfer, varied in arrangement. The increase in hipped-and-gabled roofs in the Chulmok Ikgong style was found to be closely linked to the integration of the upper and lower members of the corner bracket sets. Additionally, an analysis of the corner bracket set characteristics at Jeonjugaeksa Seoikheon suggests that it retains the style of the early Joseon Dynasty.
