Abstract
Results are discussed of a survey of partly extant historic structures dating from before the Tang Dynasty (up to 618 AD), the Tang Dynasty (618-907), the Song, Liao and Jin Dynasties (960-1279 AD), and the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties (1271-1911 AD). Notes are given on various ancient codes of building practice. -- AATA
