Xuan Kong Temple was built using wooden structures and mechanical principles. The buildings of Xuankong Temple mainly relied on the support of "iron carrying poles" and standing trees. Experts pointed out that the boardwalk and pavilions of Xuankong Temple were supported by wooden beams deeply inserted into the rocks, using ironwood trees soaked in tung oil. These wooden beams and stumps had been carefully calculated and designed to be able to withstand several tons of weight, allowing the entire Xuankong Temple to hang firmly on the cliff. In addition, Xuankong Temple's architectural structure also adopted the design of mortise and tenon structures and elastic structures to enhance its earthquake resistance. In general, the architecture of Xuankong Temple was a miracle built by ancient craftsmen using wooden structures and mechanical principles.
