Record Type: concept
jiǎ’áng (brackets (structural elements), <spanning and projecting structural elements>, ... Components (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Literally meaning “pretend” or “simulated” ang, jia’ang refers to a bracket arm that appears to be a xia’ang visually, but does not function as a xia’ang structurally. Architectural historians have used jia’ang as a term in traditional Chinese architecture since the 1930s (Liang 1933,26). Usually it refers to a huagong in an eaves bracket set (waiyan dougong 外簷斗栱) with a shape of ang mouth (angzui 昂嘴) on the outside. In most cases, there is a carved huatouzi 華頭子 underneath the jia'ang.

Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... “假昂”為1930年代以後建築史學家所使用(梁 1933,26),通常用於指外簷鬥栱中外挑斫成昂嘴形的華栱,大部分案例中昂嘴下還帶有刻出的華頭子。本質上”假昂“作為一種現象,是指在形態上通過昂尖(昂嘴)的形式追求視覺上的下昂意向,但在構件整體形式與所起作用上已不具備下昂基本特點的構件。
