建造背景
明(ming)王朝建(jian)立初期，北方的(de)局勢很不穩(wen)定。為了防御蒙古族統治(zhi)集團復辟(pi)，平山衛(wei)指揮僉事陳鏞，從(cong)明(ming)洪武(wu)二年到五(wu)年，將筑土城改筑為磚城。為“嚴(yan)更(geng)漏而(er)窺敵望(wang)遠”，報時報警(jing)，又用修城余木(mu)，建(jian)造(zao)了一座高達百尺的(de)更(geng)鼓(gu)(gu)樓(lou)(lou)，故初名“余木(mu)樓(lou)(lou)”。又因此樓(lou)(lou)有(you)(you)鼓(gu)(gu)聲(sheng)報時，人們也稱(cheng)之為“鼓(gu)(gu)樓(lou)(lou)”。明(ming)成化(hua)二十二年（1486），知府楊(yang)能在維修該樓(lou)(lou)時，因地而(er)名，稱(cheng)之為“東(dong)(dong)昌(chang)(chang)樓(lou)(lou)”。明(ming)弘治(zhi)九年（1496），吏部考工員(yuan)外郎李贊(zan)過東(dong)(dong)昌(chang)(chang)，訪太守金天錫，共登此樓(lou)(lou)，對該樓(lou)(lou)贊(zan)嘆不已，“因嘆斯樓(lou)(lou)，天下所無。雖黃鶴(he)、岳(yue)陽亦當望(wang)拜。乃今百年矣，尚寞落無名稱(cheng)，不亦屈乎(hu)？因與天錫評命之曰(yue)‘光岳(yue)樓(lou)(lou)’，取其近魯(lu)有(you)(you)光于岱岳(yue)也。”此后，歷代重(zhong)修碑(bei)記(ji)中，一直沿(yan)用“光岳(yue)樓(lou)(lou)”。

第(di)三層(ceng)系暗層(ceng)，實(shi)際是(shi)樓(lou)的結(jie)構(gou)層(ceng)。利用橫木(mu)穿(chuan)插，梁枋扣合(he)，將自下直貫而(er)(er)上(shang)(shang)的12根金柱(zhu)(zhu)和(he)20根檐柱(zhu)(zhu)從(cong)上(shang)(shang)端構(gou)成一個整(zheng)體，使之更加牢固(gu)和(he)穩(wen)定，故三層(ceng)也是(shi)樓(lou)的主(zhu)要框架。該層(ceng)面闊進深皆(jie)5間(jian)(jian)。金柱(zhu)(zhu)與檐柱(zhu)(zhu)之間(jian)(jian)上(shang)(shang)端是(shi)梁架，與第(di)二層(ceng)貫通(tong)，所以(yi)(yi)暗層(ceng)實(shi)僅3間(jian)(jian)。“當心間(jian)(jian)”即樓(lou)之正(zheng)中為空井，四(si)周置欄桿。柱(zhu)(zhu)頂(ding)設有顯(xian)著卷(juan)剎。此例與宋《營(ying)造(zao)法式》相(xiang)(xiang)符。外檐拱科(ke)相(xiang)(xiang)連、梁柱(zhu)(zhu)相(xiang)(xiang)交，枋木(mu)相(xiang)(xiang)穿(chuan)，結(jie)構(gou)緊湊而(er)(er)疏密得體，使建筑學(xue)、美學(xue)、力學(xue)、工(gong)藝學(xue)等在這(zhe)座樓(lou)上(shang)(shang)得以(yi)(yi)充(chong)分(fen)體現。第(di)三層(ceng)東(dong)次間(jian)(jian)由北向南上(shang)(shang)13級臺階抵第(di)四(si)層(ceng)。
第四(si)(si)層為(wei)樓的(de)最(zui)高層，共有(you)柱28根，面闊進(jin)深(shen)皆3間，平面正方形，較其(qi)下諸層驟然縮小(xiao)。明間面闊5.66米，大(da)于其(qi)它各層明間，目的(de)是為(wei)十字(zi)脊(ji)(ji)加長，提高光(guang)岳樓的(de)重心，使之在外(wai)觀上(shang)(shang)更加雄(xiong)偉。明間設(she)窗(chuang)6扇(shan)，次間裝冰(bing)紋圓窗(chuang)。中(zhong)間為(wei)空井，四(si)(si)周設(she)欄桿。屋頂為(wei)十字(zi)頂，頂下正中(zhong)懸垂(chui)蓮柱，以八道斜脊(ji)(ji)分別置于三架(jia)梁(liang)及抹角梁(liang)之上(shang)(shang)。樓脊(ji)(ji)為(wei)歇山十字(zi)脊(ji)(ji)，脊(ji)(ji)頂正中(zhong)裝有(you)一座高3米，直徑(jing)1.5米的(de)透花鐵葫蘆。
建筑特點
光岳樓(lou)雖幾(ji)經重修(xiu)，其(qi)建筑構件，大部分仍是初(chu)建時的(de)原物(wu)，基本保(bao)持了原來的(de)面貌，是明初(chu)建筑的(de)重要(yao)遺物(wu)，許(xu)多地方保(bao)留了宋元風格。
以(yi)形(xing)式而論，磚臺(tai)、重檐、十字(zi)脊內(nei)部置空井等(deng)，仍襲(xi)宋(song)元樓閣遺制；細部以(yi)柱礎言(yan)，從(cong)明洪武(wu)初所(suo)建(jian)南京宮殿已開始用古鏡式，此(ci)樓仍用宋(song)元以(yi)來(lai)的(de)覆(fu)盆式；就結構來(lai)講，柱之(zhi)側角升起，樓置暗(an)層，內(nei)外等(deng)高雙槽柱列，斗(dou)拱疏朗配(pei)置，以(yi)及柱頭科(ke)斗(dou)口未(wei)加寬等(deng)，也都上(shang)承唐(tang)宋(song)以(yi)來(lai)的(de)傳統做法，同(tong)時也與其它明初建(jian)筑有若干(gan)相似之(zhi)處，開“官式”建(jian)筑之(zhi)始。
該樓(lou)(lou)采用的(de)是(shi)主體結(jie)構與附加結(jie)構相結(jie)合的(de)方法，內以(yi)32根通天直上的(de)內外(wai)槽柱構成(cheng)樓(lou)(lou)的(de)主體，外(wai)以(yi)一(yi)(yi)樓(lou)(lou)圍廊(lang)和二(er)樓(lou)(lou)平(ping)座構成(cheng)樓(lou)(lou)的(de)保(bao)護層(ceng)(ceng)。外(wai)層(ceng)(ceng)結(jie)構雖(sui)易損壞，也易維修(xiu)更換。圍廊(lang)和平(ping)座雖(sui)已重修(xiu)多次，而(er)主體結(jie)構卻一(yi)(yi)直未動過。第二(er)層(ceng)(ceng)以(yi)上中央是(shi)空井(jing)，前后內柱無(wu)法用梁(liang)穿(chuan)越(yue)，因而(er)采用了(le)碩大(da)抹角梁(liang)，井(jing)字梁(liang)，層(ceng)(ceng)層(ceng)(ceng)環繞疊架，前后左(zuo)右搭(da)連構結(jie)。通過木(mu)疊木(mu)、木(mu)扣木(mu)、木(mu)跨木(mu)、木(mu)連木(mu)，形成(cheng)一(yi)(yi)個(ge)牢固穩定(ding)的(de)整體。而(er)且樓(lou)(lou)的(de)形體統一(yi)(yi)而(er)有變化，有著許(xu)多微(wei)妙獨到之處。四層(ceng)(ceng)檐口的(de)處理(li)各不相同。一(yi)(yi)層(ceng)(ceng)宏敞，二(er)層(ceng)(ceng)低(di)下，三層(ceng)(ceng)深遠，四層(ceng)(ceng)舒展，整個(ge)形體避免了(le)機(ji)械式斜(xie)切直線，使人感(gan)到高大(da)而(er)秀麗。
