Abstract

Constructions of Chinese ancient wooden buildings not only perform a seismic behavior but also benefit stability of the whole structures under static loads to protect Chinese ancient wooden buildings. Based on the surveying and mapping of JinciMirror Terrace and the collected data, load on the Mirror Terrace is calculated to provide the accurate value of the load, which can be used to determine the repair plan and provide a reference for later calculation of similar ancient buildings. The static stability is analyzed to determine whether the main components of the Mirror Terrace have good performance, discover the structural ideas of the ancients during construction, and provide a basis for the protection and maintenance of the buildings.
