홍수조절을 위한 수표교

수표교, 水標橋
원래 청계천 2가에 있었으나 1958년 청계천 복개공사를 시작하면서 철거하여
처음으로 옮겼다가, 1965년에 이곳으로 옮겨 세웠다.
다리 길이는 27,5m에 폭 7.5m, 높이4m이며. 재료는 모두 화강석이다. 교각 하부는 물의 저항을 줄이기 위해 마름모꼴로 만들었다
물길을 건너는 통로로서뿐만 아니라 홍수의 조절을 위하여 수량(水量)을 재는 구실도 하였던 중요한 다리이다.
청계천의 수위를 측정하여 홍수에 대비하였다.
Period : Early Joseon (King Taejong King Sejong)
Location : 197-1, Jangchung-dong 2-ga, Jung-gu, Seoul
This stone bridge was built across the Cheonggyecheon (Stream) and called Supyogyo
which means water mark observation balloon bridge in Korean. In the early years of the
Joseon, the bridges of Gaecheon (presently Cheonggyecheon which flows through central
Hanyang) were togyo (bridges made of mud and earth) and mokgyo (made of wood)
However, since the reign of King Taejong, those bridges were replaced by stune ones
Thus, Supyogyo was also reconstructed with stone during the reign of Kings Taejong and
Sejong., In 1958, following the renovation work of Cheonggyecheon, it was moved for a
brief period, and in 1965 it was moved to its present location. The bridge is 27.5 m in length
7.5 m in width and 4 m in height and is made of granite. The lower part of the bridge is
diamond shaped so as to reduce the resistance of water. In 1441 (23rd year of King
Sejong's reign), a wooden rain gauge was installed west of the bridge, but it was neplaced
by a stone one during King Seongjong's reign. In 1760 (36th year of King Yeongjo's reign)
the letters 'Gyeong jin ji pyeong' were carved on the bridge post and used to calibrat
water at four different levels. Thus, Supyogyo became a Sujungjuseokpyo: a bridge able
to measure the quantity of water beneath it. Supyo (Treasure No. 838) was moved to
Jangchungdan together with Supyogyo. It was later moved to King Sejong Memorial Hall
