Differences between styles
[edit]- Use of penetrating beams
During the Heian period temples were built using only non-penetrating tie beams (nageshi (長押)) made to fit around columns and pillars and nailed. The daibutsuyō style, first, and the zenshūyō style, later, replaced them with penetrating tie-beams (nuki (長押)), which actually pierced the column, and were therefore much more effective against earthquakes.[1][2] The nageshi was however retained as a purely decorative element.[3]
- Wayō and Zenshūyō put supporting brackets (tokyō) above posts, Daibutsuyō has them protruding directly from the posts.[1]
- Wayō hides the roof's structural elements behind a ceiling, Daibutsuyō does not, using them as decorative elements. Extant Zenshūyō temples have a ceiling, but it seems this was a later Japanese addition and that in the beginning they used none.
- Wayō has as sole decorative elements structures called kaerumata (蛙股・蟇股, frog legs, for an illustration, see gallery), Daibutsuyō has also kibana (木鼻, lit. wooden nose, for an illustration, see gallery), Zenshūyō adds to kibana.[1]
