COMPOSITE ORDER (MODERN)
ARCHITECTURAL WOOD COLUMNS
(FLUTED, TAPERED)
DESIGN 125
– CUSTOM COLUMN SIZING –
MATERIAL & MANUFACTURING PROCESS
Western Red Cedar, Clear Heart Redwood, pine, poplar, & mahogany are just
a few of the popular wood species utilized for our Architectural Wood Columns.
If you desire another wood species, please inform us, and it will be our pleasure
to accomodate. To ensure that our wood columns are of the highest quality, we
process each order with individualized care and attention. First, the column's
height and diameter are entered into our computer system which has been
programmed to calculate the exact proportions necessary to produce your
beautiful exterior wood columns and architectural interior wood columns.
COLUMN SHAFT
Fluted, Tapered column shaft. The Modern Composite wood column shaft
is architecturally correct according to Vignola's classical column specifications.
Select from our wide variety of column plan shapes to match your architectural
style and project specifications. The length and placement of the fluting can be
altered to achieve several column design styles. Fluting may be either at the top
or bottom one-third, one-half, or two-thirds of the column shaft. We use Western
Red Cedar, Clear Heart Redwood, pine, poplar, mahogany, teak or any other
wood species desired. Wood materials are available in both solid board and
finger-joint form. Each column is made to your exact specifications. We
recommend using either finger-joint redwood or cedar for interior columns
that will be stained or left natural with a clear protective finish
to display the grain of the wood.
CAPITAL, BASE MOLDING & PLINTH
CAPITAL: Design 125 is characterized by a Modern Composite capital.
Standard materials are polyurethane for the smaller column sizes and fiberglass
for the larger column sizes. Wood capitals are available for all sizes at an
upcharge. We are able to replicate for historic restoration if you have as much
as a quarter of the existing capital including corner and any side design. Please
contact a Chadsworth Sales Consultant for additional capital materials and
information. BASE MOLDING: Design 125 has an Ionic (Attic) Base. Base
materials follow the same parameters as the capitals. PLINTH: We offer a variety
of Plinth materials, specific to your column sizes and interior or exterior applications.
