description Yiqian town is a famous historical and cultural town in China, with rich heritage of traditional architecture and diversified architectural forms, which shows the great achievements of Gan style architecture in technology and art. Based on the field survey and mapping of traditional buildings in Yiqian, this paper sorts out the performance of plane shape and structure characteristics in different building types, and analyzed the correlation of the above three. Finally, Abaqus software was used for mechanical analysis and Ecotect software was used for light and wind analysis. It is concluded that in Yiqian, the plane mode is highly applicable, the wooden frame processing technology is flexible, and the architectural form is suitable to the climate environment, which reveals the wisdom of the ancient craftsmen in building construction.
