Pillar-brackets and cantilever arms [枅栱]: The first character (ji + xi [jī]) is explained in the Cang Jie pian: 'The square timber atop a pillar.' The Huainanzi states: 'A flat peg does not wobble; a pillar base does not tilt.' Xu Shuzhong's commentary states: 'A wooden capital on top of a pillar.' The Picang states: 'A bracket.' The second character (gong + [冗-几+豕] [gǒng]) is explained in the Erya: 'A small peg is called a yán; large timber is called a gǒng.' Guo's commentary states: 'Distinguishing the lengths of pegs according to their positions.' Both characters are formed with 'wood' [木] as radical, with jiān [幵] and gòng [共] as phonetics. 幵 is pronounced qie + jian [jiān].
