Part D_2　Passage Reading

Japanese architecture

Wood is used to construct traditional Japanese structures. The Five-story Pagoda of Horyuji is one example. The pagoda has stood in Nara for over 1,300 years. Even though the pagoda is made of wood, it has never been seriously damaged by earthquakes or typhoons. It has long been unknown what gives the Pagoda of Horyuji its strength. A Japanese architect points out, “Each of the five roofs swings independently when an earthquake occurs. Then, the central pillar, which runs through the five roofs, absorbs their movement and weakens the swing.”

The pillar and beam joints are somewhat flexible. This makes the pagoda sway like a willow tree. This ancient technology is now used in modern buildings. It was used in the design of Tokyo Skytree.

The pagoda is seen as a representation of Japanese construction methods They are based on the idea of accepting and adjusting to force instead of going against it. Traditional Japanese buildings need repairs from time to time. It is the younger generation that can keep the traditions alive.
