田峯観音野舞台の小屋掛け構法について 三河地域における伝統的竹造建築構法の研究 その２

Abstract

A temporary theater has been constructed by the villagers for the New Year Rite of Damine Kannon Temple using bamboo and Hinoki logs since the end of Edo Period. This article surveys the building construction system and construction process. Bamboo construction easily sags down as time goes by although the theater roof must be maintained in a certain height. Estimating the sagging, the villagers has devised the suspending structure by balanced Hinoki logs. The theater is really instant building as it is easily built by a several hours and dismantled soon after the rite.
