九华山木结构古建筑病害防治探析

Disease Prevention and Treatment for Ancient Wooden Buildings of Mount Jiuhua

我国古建筑大多采用木材作为建筑结构的主要材料,木材为生物材料,很容易遭到各种损害,主要有自然糟朽和各种病虫害,其中最大的损害来自于病虫害。九华山是中国佛教四大名山之一,遗存了大量的古寺庙建筑,作为不可移动文物,古代建筑在各级文物保护单位中占有重要的地位。目前,除自然糟朽之外,对九华山古建筑结构造成生物损害的主要有白蚁、粉蠹虫、黄蜂等有害昆虫。因此,做好病虫害防治是保护古建筑的一项重要工作内容。

Wood is the main material of China＇s most ancient buildings. Because of its biological nature, wooden architecture is vulnerable to two major detrimental factors： deterioration caused by natural forces and diseases brought by pests, the latter being more challenging than the former. Mount Jiuhua＇s ancient temples and buildings are facing a number of diseases caused by pests such as termite, ambrosia beetle and wasp. The prevention and treatment of these pest-caused diseases is an important aspect of architectural conservation.
