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 Greek Erechtheum with Ornate
Necking wood column shaft is architecturally correct according to
Vignola's classical column specifications. Select, also, from our distinct
column design shapes to match your interior or exterior architectural
specifications. The length and placement of the fluting can be altered
to achieve many 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 149 is characterized by a Greek Erechtheum capital

with composite ornate necking. Standard materials are polyurethane for

the smaller column sizes and fiberglass for the larger column sizes.
Load-bearing qualities. 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 149 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.
