- W4317367752 abstract "Abstract The workers toiling at the construction of a castle were guided by master builders. The expertise of a master builder was accumulated by being a wood worker or masonry/rammed earth builder in villages. Ancient builders chose inaccessible and commanding elevations to build dzongs while modern architects and engineers selected the flattest places. Builders’ skills were visible to foreigners who noted that the lofty height of the utse of Tashi Chodzong reached seven stories high, each story from fifteen to eighteen feet high. The layout of oblong classical dzongs is contrasted with the squarish monolithic structures of the newly built dzongs. Oblong dzong layout along north-south axis brought sunshine into the rooms and favoured spacious walk-through courtyards, and less noise-disturbances across the structures. Earth quake resistance was increased by thick and tapered stone walls. It is contended by master builders that the resilience against earth quake is enhanced by the east-west direction of beams. Dzongs and their watch towers housed, paradoxically, both military and monastic personnel and were built for dual purposes." @default.
