ARCHITECTURAL WOOD COLUMNS
(FLUTED, TAPERED)

– CUSTOM 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 Roman Doric column is architecturally
correct according to Vignola's classical column specifications. The length
and placement of fluting can be customized to achieve various design styles.
Fluting may be either at the top or at the bottom one-third, one-half, or
two-thirds of the column shaft. Chadsworth ensures that each fluted column
shaft is individually tapered to maintain consistency throughout the column
shaft. Doric fluting is a custom option. 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: Includes a Roman Doric 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 109
consists of 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.
