中国古建筑避雷措施探讨

AN APPROACH TO THE LIGHTNING—PROTECTION MEASURE FOR ANCIENT BUILDING IN CHLAN

现代避雷措施是由18世纪美国科学家富兰克林发现避雷针原理开始的。而中国古建筑千年不遭雷击,一定也有相应的避雷措施。但是长期以来,由于国内外学者对这种措施的机制不了解,故成为科学史上一个重要的不解之谜。1986年,笔者在对五台山古建筑群实地考察的基础上,提出了中国古建筑"绝缘避雷"的观点。

It has long been considered that the lightnigng-protection measure for Chinese ancient building is identical to that of modern one.Based on the on-the-spot investigation in a lot of Chinese ancient building in deepth,and the previous infor- mation,the author argue that both kinds of measure is completely different,and conclude that why Chinese ancient build- ing can avoid being ruined by lightning-thunder is that it relatively isolated from ground,at without any kind of lightning arrester and ion-lightning-protection equipment,in the special environment which is called"Fengshui"by Chinese forefa- thers.
