Anotations

Scope note:

Juzhe, literally “raise" and "bend, bow” (Kroll 2015, 226, 596), is a method of positioning the purlins in relation to each other in order to manipulate the slope and curvature of the roof. In premodern literature, the term juzhe only appears in the Yingzao fashi. According to this text, a building’s juzhe is determined through a process called ding ceyang 定側樣 (deciding the side appearance) or dian caojia 點草架 (designating the rough structural frame). During this process, the roof frame would be drawn on a wall plane at a scale of 1:10 (Li 2009, 5.9b).
