Abstract
This study aims to analyze the standardization of the member size in Kaisan-do and Shoro, Todai-ji as an inevitable preparation for the formation of the Daibutsu style, the new construction method invented by Chogen. 1) Through the calculation of the percentage ratio of timber volume and structural timber volume, 7 kinds of parts with standardized section are found in Kaisan-do, and similarly 8 kinds of parts with standardized section are found in Shoro. 2) The percentage ratio of timber volume of 7 kinds of standardized parts in Kaisan-do corresponds to 85.23% of total timber volume, while the percentage ratio of structural timber volume corresponds to 95.74% of total structural timber volume. Therefore there is the standardization of the member size in Kaisan-do. 3) The percentage ratio of timber volume of 8 kinds of standardized parts in Shoro corresponds to 90.24% of total timber volume, while the percentage ratio of structural timber volume corresponds to 95.11% of total structural timber volume. Therefore there is the standardization of the member size in Shoro.
