The aim of this study is to identify the planning method of B6 in Kaunos. Assuming proportional relationships of each part were applied in the construction, as in the ancient Greek temples and stoas, the planning of B6 was investigated, leading to a conclusion that rough calculation of the scale has been determined first as a scheme design, followed by dimensional adjustment of each part in the execution stage. Further, the study identified that the planning is based on a grid technique using 3 feet as a grid, with proportional design and dimensional adjustments employed in the façade
