koguchiari 木口蟻
KEY WORD : architecture / joints
 
A right-angled dovetail joint used to connect the corners of sills and footings. Its significant feature is that the end of the corner sill into which the cavity is made, is cut across the grain and the dovetail itself is crosscut, but only on its butt end.
