Record Type: concept
shàng'áng (<spanning and projecting structural elements>, structural elements, ... Components (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Meaning literally to prop and rotate (Kroll 2015 453, 479), the term tiao‘wo, as most scholars believe, is a noun that refers to a component in the timber frame structure, used in the interior of a building with an open-frame roof structure (cheshang mingzao 徹上明造; i.e. without a ceiling). Tiao'wo appears in the Yingzao fashi (1103) four times (YZFS 2009, 1.8a, 4.6a, 6.9b, 18.7a). There are two types of tiao'wo. (1) As a part of a component, tiao'wo refers to the upward end of a xia'ang in a bujian puzuo. This kind of tiaowo is also called angwei tiaowo 昂尾挑斡 by some scholars. Sometimes it can also refer to the upward end of a shuatou. (2) As a separate component, tiaowo refers to an oblique element without pointed shape, a particular form of xia'ang. Some scholars believe this is the angting tiaowo mentioned in Yingzao fashi (Zhu 2018).

Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 上昂是中國傳統建築大木作的構件之一。作為建築術語在文獻中首見于《通典》(801)寫作“上枊”,此後主要出現于《營造法式》(1103)(李 2009, 1.8b, 4.6a-4.7b),作為與下昂相對應的另一種飛昂類型(李 2009,4.6a)。上昂的形態為組織在鬥栱中的斜向構件,昂頭外出,昂身斜收向裡。昂腳應立於下跳栱心之上。上昂的作用是可使鋪作出跳短,高度大,並能夠提高平棊的位置。用於室内可解決斗栱兩側藻井高低不一的問題。上昂的使用位置,目前一般認爲用於外簷鋪作裡跳、殿身槽內鋪作或平坐鋪作。
