This paper presents scaffolds and dissections for the comparative representation and analysis of Indic temple geometry found in temples across South and Southeast Asia. Scaffolds are representational schema that capture classes of constructive geometry such as grids, geometric profiles and procedures from canonical descriptions. Dissections represent horizontal and vertical profiles that capture attribute features of a temple from field measurement methods. Together, they guide the development of 3D schematic reconstructions of individual temples that capture the architectural form of the temple, but also the knowledge of temple production and their architectural lineage. Drawing upon canonical descriptions and previous scholarship on temple geometry, the paper outlines schematic reconstructions of four individual temples. A comparative analysis of the similarities and differences between the temples reveals the role of the canonical constructive mechanisms underlying these temples. Individual temples and their similarity features are categorised into a series of related objects in compliance classes. More broadly, both method and vehicle posit a broader understanding of how individual buildings of a particular historical and philosophical lineage may be compositionally connected through the method of scaffolds and dissections and provide a symbolic view of variance in architectural production over time.

脚手架和解剖：印度寺庙的计算重建及其建筑制作

本文介绍了支架和解剖结构，用于比较和分析在南亚和东南亚寺庙中发现的印度寺庙几何形状。脚手架是代表性模式，它从规范描述中捕获构造几何的类别，例如网格、几何轮廓和程序。解剖代表从现场测量方法捕获寺庙属性特征的水平和垂直剖面。他们共同指导各个寺庙的 3D 示意图重建的开发，这些重建捕捉寺庙的建筑形式，以及寺庙生产及其建筑谱系的知识。借鉴经典描述和先前关于寺庙几何学的学术成果，该论文概述了四个单独寺庙的示意性重建。对寺庙之间异同的比较分析揭示了这些寺庙背后的规范建设机制的作用。单个寺庙及其相似性特征被归类为合规类中的一系列相关对象。更广泛地说，方法和载体都对特定历史和哲学谱系的单个建筑如何通过脚手架和解剖方法进行组合连接提供了更广泛的理解，并提供了建筑生产随时间变化的象征性观点。
