  2. Vibro stone column - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibro_stone_column

    The stone that is poured in takes the place of the soil and keeps up the pressure on the soil that was created by the vibrating probe. The stone consists of crushed coarse aggregates of various sizes. The ratio in which the stones of different sizes will be mixed is decided by design criteria.

  3. Column - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Column

    In many classical sites, sectioned columns were carved with a centre hole or depression so that they could be pegged together, using stone or metal pins. The design of most classical columns incorporates entasis (the inclusion of a slight outward curve in the sides) plus a reduction in diameter along the height of the column, so that the top is ...

  4. Fluting (architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluting_(architecture)

    Fluted columns are common in the tradition of classical architecture but were not invented by the ancient Greeks, but rather passed down or learned from the Mycenaeans or the Egyptians. [2] Especially in stone architecture, fluting distinguishes the column shafts and pilasters visually from plain masonry walls behind. [3]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_engineering

    Structural engineers are responsible for engineering design and structural analysis. Entry-level structural engineers may design the individual structural elements of a structure, such as the beams and columns of a building. More experienced engineers may be responsible for the structural design and integrity of an entire system, such as a ...

  6. Tensioned stone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensioned_stone

    This would exploit the compressive strength of stone, which can be greater than that of concrete, combined with post-tensioning by stainless steel rods. Walls, columns, beams and slabs could all be made from small pieces of factory-sawn stone, cut and pre-drilled to a design of standard components." [16]

  8. Monolithic column - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monolithic_column

    A monolithic column or single-piece column is a large column of which the shaft is made from a single piece of stone instead of in vertical sections. Smaller columns are very often made from single pieces of stone, but are less often described as monolithic, as the term is normally reserved for less common, larger columns made in this way.

  9. Construction of Gothic cathedrals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Construction_of_Gothic...

    Full-size templates were used to make complex structures such as vaults or the pieces of ribbed columns, which could be reused at different sites. [16] The result of these efforts was a remarkable degree of precision. The stone columns of the triforium of the apse of Chartres Cathedral have a maximum variation of plus or minus 19 mm (0.75 in).
