《中国古代建筑史》中列举了盔顶,却未有洋细的介绍和具体的做法。至今,我们能够见到的盔顶建筑,与其它类型相比数量较少,关于盔顶的学术研究也十分有限。而盔顶作为中国传统建筑屋顶的一种基本类型,在建筑史中占有重要地位,本文主要从建造起源、施用缘由、具体做法等三个方面介绍盔顶的发展,借此引起学界对这一屋顶类型的更多关注。 “Ancient Chinese architectural history” lists the helmet top, but no foreign introduction and specific practices. So far, the number of helmets we can see is less than that of other types, and there is limited academic research on helmets. As a basic type of roof of traditional Chinese architecture, helmet dome occupies an important position in the history of architecture. This paper mainly introduces the development of helmet dome from three aspects: the origin of construction, the reason of application and the concrete practice, More attention to roof types.
